During the months of January. Feb t uory null March 72 eases yf diph- 1 Iberia developed in Austin, a city of about 40. OiiO. ol whi-'h about 4,00() art- university students.

The slate health department munn • that ene month 1 »<•{■**i»• the students got sick the cook at the boarding house and her baby bad developed diphtheria, bad been isolated, and on recovering had left Austin. The di sease could not bo traced to the ((ok. 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 • f diphtheria began to appear among the customers of Dairy Investiga tion showed Hint M., working at that 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 ing at Dairy Ii at Hip time the trouble i 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 focted cow and perhaps ft. continued tlio infection of the milk and thus in fected other customers, including the 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 it hi it a week after the supply >-f in fection "as shut off and the irrita tion of milking discontinued. "Ouch! 1 Won't Do ll Again." ti .f.
