Petitions Have Been Mailed to
All Cattle Owners in County
by County Agent Miesen
and These Will Be Presented
to Township Boards Tuesday
Night

Are Burleigh county cattle herd
owners laggards when it comes to
testing for tuberculosis?
That is question that will be
answered next Tuesday night when
petitions which were sent to all
cattle herd proprietors in the county
by A. r. Miesen, agricultural agent,
will be presented to the township
boards in the respective townships.
All herds of cattle in the county
can be tested free of charge by the
state and federal governments if
the majority Of livestock owners
want such tests made. Indemnities
will be paid for animals condemned
on account of tuberculosis.
Burleigh county is tagging behind
the majority Of North Dakota coun-
ties in this respect. All of the east
ern counties have been tested. Nc
Lean and Morton counties, neighbors,
are being tested now. Kidder county
has just completed tests.
81 Per Cent Must Sign
How can the cattle-testinR move
nient be launched?
TutyeOne peI cent OF all cattle
owners Of each township must sign
a petition asking the State Live
Stock Sanitary board to make the
test. Petitions for this request have
already been mailed out.
The townships must furnish q car
and driver to take the testers from
farm to farm in the township. The
law requires this. Farmers can haul
the testers free of charge but the
best way is to set aside township
money enough to pay for such testers
and car. This saves time and OK
pensc, Mr.. Miesen said today. The
cost is usually from $50 to $50 a
township and one week is the aver
age required to finish a township.
Tests Made in the Fall
The tests are made in the fall
after thrcshing.
Why test cattle for. tuberculosis
Thirty-eight per cent Of all chill.
dren infected with tuberculosis con.
tracted it from drinking raw milk
from tubercular cows, says Mr.
Miesen. Sick animals are unprofit-
able and they spread the disease tc
other members of the herd.
Taxpayers at the present time are
paying for the tests which are being
made in other stats and in other
counties of North Dakota. Already

EFFORT NOW BEING MADE TO HAVE
CATTLE HERDS IN COUNTY TESTED

"a counties in eastern North Dakota
have been accredited.
How the Tests Work Out
All livestock owners who want the
tests made are urged to sign the
petition enclosed in the letter which
Mr.. Miesen sent out.
After making the tests, all infected
cattle will be tagged and shipped to
market after first being appraised.
Appraisal Values
The appraisal values are:
Grades 2 years old or over, up
to $50.
Grades 2 years old or under, up
to $50.
Purebreds 2 years old or over, up
to $3.50.
Purebreds 2 years old or under,
up to SIS.
The owner Of infested cattle gets
what they bring. If this is not equal
to the appraised value then the state
and federal governments pay two
thirds of the remainder and the
owner loses one-third. The owner
receives full net amount secured
1IOIu Tile SdIS VI Tic CdTCaSS regard.
less of the amount.
After the first test, all herds in.
fected will be tested again in about
three months following the first
examination. The county pays the
expense Of the transportation Of the
inspectors.
When less than one-half of one
per cent of the cattle in the county
show tuberculosis the county is &C.
credited and no cattle can be shipped
in unless they are tested.
Mr.. Miesen urges all farmers to
attend the township meetings next
! Tuesday night and talk this matter
over, vote enough money to hire q
driver during the tests, and sign
the petitions at the meeting or at
the township election.
The Burleigh county board Of com.
missioners has approved the cattle
testing movement and recommends
that the livestock owners of the
county adopt the testing plan az
outlined by Mr.. Miesen.
