WHITMAN CATTLE
IN GOOD HEALTH
or 1923 Tested in This County Not a
Single One Showed Any Trace
of Tuberculosis

The feature of the chamber of
commerce luncheon Tuesday was an
interesting address by +. +. Benson
state commissioner OF agriculture, on
the work of his department in stamp
ing out contagious animal diseases in
The state. He said that during the
past s months 1141 horses had been
tested for CHAMBERS, and 30,942 cat
tie for tuberculosis. In Within an
county 2S9 horses had been tested of
which 2 were found to be infected
with CHAMBERS and killed. OF the 428
head of cattle tested in the county
not a single one showed any trace of
tuberculosis, which is remarkable
record
Mr. Benson explained the import
ance of this work in preventing the
spread of diseases among children
and animals He urged that people
should insist upon the testing of all
udllS ueiuo lOI lubbiCulOoiS DtCdhSc
often a perfectly healthy looking
COW will be suffering from the dis
ease and children, calves or hogs will
be infected by the milk. He stated
that at one time large numbers of dis
eased horses and cattle were unload
ed by eastern breeders upon the live
stock men of this state with disas
trous results, but that now the in
spection of animals shipped into the
state is so rigid that there is little
danger of diseases being brought in
from outside.
In reply to a question regarding
the prevalence of rabies in the state
he said that while a number of iso-
lated cases were still being reported,
the quarantine in this county had
been raised, largely because it could
not be enforced, as the peace officers
and citizens would not kill the I'M
muzzled dogs of their ghborhoods.
He advocated placing a special dep
uty in the field to go from place to
place and kill all unlicensed dogs.
Citing conditions in England, where
no case of rabies has been reported
for several years, he said it was be-
cause ali dogs are muzzled. In this
country coyotes are spreading the
disease. and a war of determination
should be waged against them.
