Commissioner Stewart issued the
GOwing statement concerning the
..6rgantown herds:
The United States department o:
grculture and state department Of
griculture have been carrying on Il
cooperative work for the eradica-
Ion of tuberculosis from the herds
&C dairy and other cattle in the
state. The United States operates
through the bureau of animal indus
Try of that department
Each Have Experts.
THE two cooperating agencies
each employ the same number Of eX-
Iert approved veterinarians, who
make the test of these cattle by the
Sc of tuberculin, serum used for
tnat purpose. Where the animal is
affected by the disease, after receiv-
ing injections of tuberculin, show
very considerable changes in temper
;ture and other manifestations which
determine whether they have the
disease or are free from it. All such
cattle are called 'reactors,' and are
marked by the veterinarians in
charge of the work for condemnation
and slaughter.
lit Is true that II number of reac-
tors have been taken out of private
herds of dairy cattle around Il num-
her of cities and towns of the state,
including MorgantOwn. These ami
mails have been slaughtered, and in
the case of the private herds, settle
lnent has been made of the indemni-
ny allowable under the laws of the
lstate and United States, and pay
lments of these indemnities are made
by the United States, the state and
the county court
"a number of the cities of the
state have adopted municipal ordi-
nances requiring dairy herdsmen to
have their cattle tested for tuberculO-
sis and their milk houses and dairy
barns thoroughly cleaned up wherever
necessary and put under a thorough
sanitation management. Supervision
of sanitation and permits to sell milk
is controlled under such ordinances
by the city health officer or other Of
iicer. This department has conduct
cd tests for tuberculosis among NUN
Der Of herds OF the state, from some
of which a number Of reactOrs have
been taken and destroyed. In carry
ing on these tests at MOrgantOwn sew
eral tests have been made of the beef
and dairy herds of the university and
reactors have been taken out from
time to time
Post Norton Held
"The university is endeavOring to
have its breeding herds as well as it's
dairy herd put on the accredited herd
list This would mean a herd which
would be approved both by the author
tiles Of the state and the nation as
being absolutely free from tuberculosis
according TO all tests. In making
the last test of the dairy herd at the
university IS COWS and one bull, the
latter belonging 20 the United States.
