KILL MORE CATTLE
IN THE DISTRICT
Inspectors of Agricultural
Department Continue Tu-
berculoSiS Crusade.

Inspectors Of tho Department Of AgTi-
culture are engaged this week in on
forcing the provisions OF a regulation
adopted recently by the District Com
missioners providing that after Novem-
Der 80, all cattle within the District OF
Columbia found TO be afflicted with tu-
berculosis in any form shall be de-
stroyed.
Yesterday the departments officers
killed twenty-five cattle and today TWEEN
ty-three more were destroyed The
work will proceed until all cattle in
fected with tuberculosis shall have been
killed
This action follows a careful study Of
the health conditions obtaining among
cattle in the District for several years
past. and instituted by the Health De
partment through the Milk Commission.
The fact that only recently the law has
been enforced gave rise TO unfounded
reports that startling discoveries of tu-
berculOsis among District cattle had
been suddenly discovered. AS a matter
OF fact such conditions have prevailed
for sometime. and with the knowledge
of local officials. though il has been
only recently that the Department of
Agriculture officers have been clothed
with proper authority to eradicate the
evil. Under agreement with the Dis
trict Commissioners the department s
officers perform the inspection work,
and upon cOndemuing cattle pay the
owners thereof a just price for their
property.
DR.. l. W. Hickman, of the Bureau OF
Animal Industry, said today that IL Rs
planned 90 complete the inspection work
within three months. He said the work
required minute examinations. and that
cOusidera bic time was lost through the
diSinfeCtiOn Of barns. which had prior
10 inspection. been occupied by afflicted
cattle. DR. Woodward Health officer,
plans TO increase the force OF inspeC-
