Experiment in Bovine Tuberculosis

To settle the dispute among physicians as to whether human beings are immune to bovine tuberculosis, physicians in the state are endeavoring to induce the state to offer pardon to a life convict who will offer himself for inoculation with bovine tuberculosis bacteria and to be nourished with tuberculosis beef. Great interest is taken in the proposed experiment. But one convict would scarcely be a test. He might have life enough to be immune to all germs.
