Cites Legal Test
For Sale OF Cattle

RALEIGH, Oct. 3O-PH A
warning citing legal requirements
for testing cattle for Bangs di-
sease was issued today by DR..
L. J. Faulhaber, state veterinari-
an with the N. c. department of
agriculture.
DR.. Faulhaber said herd disper-
sal sales are occurring so fire.
quently that owners should be
reminded of the law in order to
prevent an outbreak of Bangs
n this state.
He cited a provision stating:
Cali dairy and breeding cattle
over six months of age offered
" sold at public sale, except
or immediate slaughter, shall
oe negative to Bangs test made
within 80 days prior to sale and
approved by the state veterin-
, arian."
The responsibility for making
he test lies with the herd owner
making the sale, DR.. Faulhaber
explained. He said the warning
] yas prompted by the revelation
that a herd owner recently sold
cattle without making the test.
