ANIMAL TUBERCULOSIS AND

TUBERCULINE TEST.

The following letter apprami in the "Dundee Courier recently :--

The ultimatum presented by the **Export" Buyers of pedigree cattle has caused some stir, and set people thinking. I hope consideration will not be confined-

to the immediate interest of vendors cren of buyer of rulla för export. but extended.. to" cover the national interest.

It is ridiculous to suppose that bite country wit continue to view with woncern the export of the sound and the retention here of the unsound "unimuls

propagate their species and dissem

It is is the interest of foreign vystries to incur sued expense in securing only

sound breeding saimals is cannot be less so in the case of the hotneinad.

Consumers of meat and milk demanding sound produce, and this demand will not lesson. The sim, thero- fore. past be to raise sound Eerds-and not merely to arrange by Insurance or otherwise to meet the lows of foreign Byars who get anded with "ronetore."

1have heard on good authority that me breeders gisa private undertakings o foreign buyers at acting sal-to relieve them of any reactors" they may purebase from their lot-and sobie are known to have taken hark such enttia, rom foreign buyers without having hive any previous undertaking to do so.

•Conduct of this sort undoubtedly gives zia la suspicions-but, apart from that. is it fair to other buyers? "Certainly is not.

At an auction sale. all must have equal treatment and there thus be no privately stranged privileges for any class of purchasers,

t

I believe that the taly real wolition

of the problem is to arrange for all pedigree hards coming under Government' supervision. The Department of Agriel- tars would then appoint veterinarios who would test all the animals in a herd, as and when expedient. At the same time it should, of ecarse, be made illegal for anyone to procura tubercaline except Auch veterinaries or for anyone to inoculate or "doctor" animals, with the intention of destroying the taberenline test.

Under this system we would get to know where we are, whether tuberculosis can be wholly, "or to what extent, climinated in a properly managed herd, aud coupled with an insurance schema, justice could prevail and virtoe be rewarded.-W. HENDELSON.
