THIRD BIENNIAL REPORT. II the care of tliein, and in this view of the case it was clearly the duty of the State Board to act promptly to suppress it. Another consideration of hardly less gravity, when we estimate the greater liability to its spread among horses than amonor men, is that horse-owners in town and countrv O ' should be notified of the invasion of the disease. But as few of the most intelligent horse-dealers and managers are able to distinguish the disease authoritatively, the State should have some veterinary practitioner to appeal to in the diagnosis and care of the animals. The application of this Board to the State Agricultural Experiment Station elicited the reply from the Director, Dr. H. B. Battle, that no provision had been made for the suppression of pestilential diseases among animals. Evidently, from the accumulation of facts concerning the diseases of domesticated animals, and the skilled researches which are being made for the discoverv of an inoculating-fluid to protect against SWINE PLAGUE AND HOG CHOLERA, it will become necessary for the State to take an active part in such work as will place the farmer in possession of all the facts necessary to protect his herds of swine. It is a matter of serious concern that in our State immense sums are lost annually by the death of hogs from cholera and swine plague, and that very large amounts of money go to the West for the purchase of meat. It is not from this standpoint, though, that this Board views these diseases, but from that of the communicability of the diseases of these animals to man. Tuberculosis is a common disease with beef-cattle. Tape-worm, also, has its origin in the same source, while trichinosis is the commonest affection among our swnne.
