REVIEW OF MY WORK WITH TUBERCULIN. 
By Dr. J. Faust, V.S., Poughkeepsie, N. V. 
Mr. 
-has a fine herd of Guernsey cattle, kept in good 
condition. 
These cattle were examined three or four times a year by a 
veterinarian, who occasionally destroyed one. Mr. -, not 
being satisfied with this mode of operation, employed another 
veterinarian to examine his cattle with the first veterinary. 
This examination was not satisfactory, and a few days after I 
was called, and requested to examine the entire herd. 
I found three cases of suspected tuberculosis which, on post¬ 
mortem, showed marked lesions of tuberculosis. 
I was then requested to use tuberculin on the herd, with the 
following result: 
No. 
Before 
Injection. 
After Injection.
