In Austin. Ti x., last winter, a Mr. |

The milk 1*11 undti suspicion. Tlu*
boarding house used raw milk from a j
< reamery which gut milk from more
than one dairy farm. 1’y exclusion
Dairy I*» was settled on as the one
spreading the disease. All the per- j
sens on the dairy farm were examin- |
t*d for diphtheria. A child of the
proprietor, living about 3 00 yards
from the dairy, was found to have
diphtheria, but the evidence indicated
that this child had contracted diph
theria from the dairy rather than
that it had infected the dairy.
One of the milkers, S., was found to
be a diphtheria carrier. It was found
that the ulcers on the teats of 1 lumpy,
the cow, were diphthereio.
The evidence (.hat Dairy 1. was re
sponsible for most of the diphtheria
was accepted. lint then a few cases

time at that dairy, hs«l a hole in the
septum of his nose, which was due to
virulent diphtheria bacilli. Then some
body recalled that this M.. was milk

lagan. Thus we come back to "M" of
Scene 1.
The final ronelusiuji of Dr. Graham !
of the state health department was as
follows:
While M was milking for Dairy 11
he infected the cow Humpy, and prob
ably the carrier S. ills diphtheria
bacilli g.it into the milk and in that
way infected some students. Tito in

child of the proprietor. 31 changed jobs
and began milking for whereupon
some cases of diphthi riu appeared
among the customers of that dairy.
Other cases were infected with diph
theria by contact with the milk-pro
duced cases and by carriers infected
mostly by the milk cases. When the
authorities saw to it that tire milk
was pasteurized the epidemic fell off
shortly, and presently was at an end.
The report docs not state whether
S and 31 were compelled fo quit milk
big or were permitted t» milk when
the milk was to he pasteurized. If
cnes say that Humpy's udder got well
