signed certain sections of the city Of
Worcester to each of the three inspec-
tors for the inspection OF all neat cat
tie, sheep and swine, so that during the
past year, in addition to the slaughter
house work, l have had a part of the
live stock inspection. The barns or sta
bles, and the proper care of them, form
an important factor in the physical con-
dition Of the herd, and to them the in
spectors had Instructions to give special
attention, and to report stables which
they considered not to be in good sani-
tary condition. During the past year I
have visited and examined 81 barns, and
found that in SO cases the sanitary re-
quirements were fairly satisfactory. In
10 of this number the cattle were kept
in the cellar, or basement, and In all
others on the first floor. which I con-
slider to be the best arrangement, as the
air and light are always better, and the
dampness incident to basement stable
is not found. OF the whole number
reported eight as below the standard in
sanitary requirements (ventllation, etc.,
and 10 poorly lighted. All others We're
roomy, both as to height and width,
with good ventilation and light. Almost
invariably / found the stock was water
ed from a set trough, either in the barn
or barnyard, very small number be-
ing supplied from pals
The number of live animals inspected
by me during the year was as follows:

tuberculin test, and were destroyed; Of
the other number, five, 8 did not react,
and were released; the other two were
not tested, owing to the protestations of
the owner against the use Of tuberculin,
and after a careful physical examine
ton were released.
Since my appointment have kept a

The reports Of the cattle commission
have each year shown a material de-
