Live Stock Commissioner Has
Found Tuberculosis in Herd.

That there are $50 cases of tuber-

OF the herd from the Bradbury stock

dition.
Recently the representatives from
the live stock sanitary commissioners

bury herd. OF this number 20 were
found to be infected with tubercular
germs and were ordered killed. There
still remained in the Bradbury herd a
total OF IS cows which had not been
inspected. When the veterinarians
returned. however. a portion of the
OF the cattle had been placed in other
herds in Shawnee county. Now the
nerd had been reassembled and % of
the cows were inspected today. OF
these six were found to be infected
with disease germs.
As result of the Bradbury investi-
cation. the inspection Of dairy herds
is to be extended to every section of

1T Is probable that there are $50
diseased cows in this county, said
Graybill today. I'VE will extend our
investigations to every herd and ali
OF the 5000 dairy cows in Shawnee
county will be inspected. A full and
final report on the Bradbury herd
