FEDERAL QUARANTINE
FOR ILLINOIS CATTLE

| [, Washington. Aug. 3l.-All cattle
in five counties in northeastern Hi
nois will be under federal quaran-
tober /. 1914. The governor and Tho
sanitary officials of Illinois will CO.
|operate actively with the federal au-
thorities in making this quarantine.
effective. The five counties affected
lare Lake, McHcnry, Kane, DuPage
and Cook.
Under the terms of this quarantine
no cattle can be shipped from the
five counties for dairy or breeding
purposes unless they are accnmpani
ed by a certificate showing that they
have been subjected to the tubcrcu-
lin test and found free from Gis, ase.
These certificates must be issued by
an employe of the bureau of animal
industry, United States department
of agriculture.
The necessity for this quarantine,
which has been recognized by the
state authorities. arises from the
misuse on the part of a limited num-
ber of cattle owners and shippers of
the privilege of inspection by pri-
vate veterinarians. In some cases
1t has been found that health certiti-
Gates have been issued for cattle
which were obviously diseased. AS
a result 12 states now refuse to ac
cept Illinois cattle unless accompa-
MED by certificate of federal inspcc-
tion. In order. therefore, to protect
the live stock in Illinois and neigh
boring states from the danger of tu-
bercuIosis infection it has been
found advisable to do away alto
gcther with private inspection and
to place in the hands of the depart
ment of agriculture the regulation or
the entire interstate movement Of
cattle from the quarantined area, |

parts of the state. With rigid fed
eral inspection healthy Illinois cat
tie will be freed from any suspicion
cast upon them by the practices of
the small percentage of cattle men
who have misused the privilege of
private inspection in the past.
The regulations governing the
quarantine are contained in de-
partment order known as b. A. !. Or
der 217 Under these regulations
ample provision is made for the
provement under permits from the
Iuarantined area of cattle for feed
ing or grazing purposes. Cattle in
tended for immediate slaughter may
also he shipDcd, provided that the
cars containing them are properly
piacarded so as to prevent the ami
mails from being diverted to other
purposes. The meat of such cattle is.
of course. subjected to examination
by United States meat inspectors.
With these provisions II is not an
ticipated that the quarantine will

that these will cooperate in every
way with the department of agricul'
ture and the state of Illinois, both In

be able to collect more promptly pay

Corn swayed with wheat. Transac-

general setback, and then a material
upturn.
Steadiness ruled in oats. There was
