Eradication of tuberculosis in Cattle

spreader in a herd that has not been
tuberculin tested. For this reason
the United States Live Stock Sanitary
Association evolved the plan of area
testing. BY that Is meant the test
ing of all cattle in a given district,
irrespective of whether they were
dairy cattle, purebreds or simply
grade cattle.
Unfortunately this plan is not
practical in the state Of Montana 0w-
ing to our peculiar natural and geo.
graphic conditions. 1t is perfectly
practical in small segregated areas
where only a certain number Of ami
mails run and into which area outside
cattle cannot drift. Stock lAen will
realize that there are very few such
districts in the state of Montana.
They will also realize that It is a
physical and financial impossibility
for the Live Stock Sanitary Board
or the United States Bureau of AMI
NAL Industry to test all cattle in the
state of Montana. It Is equally q
financial impossibility to place rid
ers around a district not naturally
segregated to keep outside animals
from drifting into that district.
Many applications have been made
to the live stock sanitary board for
area testing. but owing to the pres
ent financial condition it is impos-
sible to fulfill these requests. and it
will continue to be impossible for
several years to come, excepting in
naturally segregated districts.
It has been stated that tuberculosis
is not being eradicated in Montana
and cannot be eradicated until the
in the main is unfair to the dairy in
dustry of Montana. and is really not
substantiated by our official figures.
1t is true that occasionally We run on
to pockets" Of tuberculosis. BY that
Il mean we will run on to a herd
which is closely confined and into
which there has been introduced a
tuberculosis spreader. Naturally.
when We test this herd We may find
number of tuberculous cattle, but
it is very seldom indeed that We ever
find pocket Of tuberculosis in cat
tie that are running out on the open
range. The chances of a range ami
NAL affecting other animals that run
on the range is very limited. except
ing during very severe winter wea-
Their when all animals may be bedded
down together and feed in very lin
tied sheltered area. The herds where
we find considerable percentage of
tuberculosis are herds that are close
ly confined and are not ones scatter
ed over range country.
Montana has carried on systematic
tuberculin testing Of dairy cattle
since 1911. and the following table
gives the percentage of reactors from
1911 up to and including 1920:
The Powder River County examiner and the Broadus independent. [volume] (Broadus, Mont.) 1919-1935, 1921-03-18
Per Cent

The increase in the percentage of
|tuberculous reactors in 1916 was un-
doubtedly due to our adopting the
intradermic test, and being able by
that test to test calves and unbroken
animals which could not be accur-
ately tested with the temperature
test. and to our unearthing several
dairy herds which contained num-
Der of tuberculous animals, and
which had previously escaped being
tested. It will be noted that the
percentage of reactors has steadily
decreased since 1915 and We sin
cerely trust that We will not again
encounter herds so badly affected.
At the recent legislative session
law was passed placing all dairy
and creamery inspection and the IL
censing of all diaries and creameries
under the supervision of the live
stock sanitary board. This will give
the board first hand knowledge Of
all dairy cattle. so that inspectors
may obtain list of all dairy cattle
in their districts and be able to tu-
berculin test them. inspect the diaries
and creameries and avoid overlap
ping with any other authority. This
