Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Tuberculin Test of Imported Cattle The regulations of the United States Department of Agriculture require that "All cattle over 6 months old imported into the United States after March 1, 1900, which are subject to quarantine and except as otherwise provided shall be tested with tuberculin." With importations from Canada "A certificate for cattle over 6 months old for breeding purposes and for milch cows must also show that they have been submitted to the tuberculin test and found free from tuberculosis, giving the date of testing, with the chart of reaction, and a description of the cattle with age and markings." The effect of these regulations is that all cattle over 6 months old imported for breeding purposes or for milk production must be tested with tuberculin, and, if found by this test to be affected with tuberculosis, they must be excluded under the act of August 30, 1890, which prohibits the importation of animals "which are diseased or infected with any disease, or which shall have been exposed to such infection within sixty days next before their exportation." The tuberculin test, being in the nature of a restriction upon the importation of cattle, has been the subject of more or less unfavorable comment on the part of importers and their friends, and efforts have been made to secure its abandonment. Under these circumstances it is deemed advisable to present the reasons for requiring the tuberculin test and the importance of this measure as a means for protecting the interests of the farmers of this country. Necessity Of Guarding Against Disease. The necessity of guarding our food-producing animals from the ravages of contagious diseases has been recognized by Congress at various times, but principally in the enactment of the statutes for the establishment of the Bureau of Animal Industry and prohibiting the importation of animals affected with any disease dangerous to the flocks and herds of this country. The farmers of the United States are especially fortunate in having a larger investment in farm animals than can be found in any other country, and in the fact that these animals are, on the whole, remarkably free from disease.
