years,
Here, IN letter written by Commits
sioner ]. n. WhittIesey Of the bureau Of
domestic animals. is some information
relative to the testing OF COWS for tu-
berculosis and angles pertaining thereto
that will be of special interest to Put
nam people:
Hartford. Conn.
Mr.. Frank L. Davis. County Agent
Putnam. Conn.
My Dear Mr. Davis: In reply to yours
OF the 18th regarding federal waiver IN
connection with the state and federal ac-
credited herd test, irrespective OF the
fact that applications may have been
signed prior to December 18th. or that
they are in areas, the federal govern
| nent finds itself short of funds, to pay
Indemnity carrying on this work.
1t is hoped that arrangements may
| be made in fact such are in process, or
| paying all owners some portion Of this
| indemnity which may be one-sixth Of
| the federal payment instead of one-third.
It is believed that this will give greater
satisfaction than requiring such large
number TO waiver entirely their federal
claim.
Nevertheless, It will be necessary from
| Instructions received by DR.. r. L. Smith,
federal inspector in charge, to have these
waivers on file on his desk. If there are
any applicants who prefer that their test
be delayed until after July LIST next when
| 1t is expected that appropriation will be
available, they may take advantage OF
this opportunity. which course will be
! followed without prejudice. OF course,
! it must be remembered that the time will
surely come when the state appropriation
will be exhausted and delay should not
be too long prolonged. However, at this
time there is over $4,000 available of
the state funds, Claims not inatured to
amount to about SIS, 600 to be substract-
ed therefrom.
am sure you appreciate the volume
| Of work going forward, the tremendous
| demand from all sections of the state for
this service. and it would seem to me
very unwise on the part of any city
health department to enact ordinance
coercing milk producers until suffi-
-cient time has elapsed to give these pro-
.duceLs reasonable. opportunity in which
to have their tests completed.
It would. seem to me that a sign ed
! application for this test should, be re-
gsrded as good faith on the part Of
the producer of milk. OF his intention 10
I meet such requirements of health de.
partments as may he made and that he
i should not in any way be made to SUI
4 fer because OF lack Of service OF the
part of the state ard federal xeterirari-
ans.
:; Nearly two thousand cattle are being
. tested officially per month ard YOU may
be- assured that your section Of the stare
will receive It's full proportion of this
service It is our enSeavor to keep ur

have been received any considerable
