HESS, JEWELLER enees, dealt with the question from equally different standpoints. "Sir John M'Fadyean, addressing an audience of agriculturists in Cheshire, avoided the question of legislation, and confined himself to explaining the disease itself, and advising the individual owner how best to combat it. It is needless to say that this task was admir- ably performed; but some who beard the address, and many more who read the report of it, must have wondered how many of those 'receiving such advice even from so high an authority are likely to seriously attempt its adoption. An answer to that query is to be found in the paper by Dr. J. G. Rutherford, the Veterinary Dir- ector General of Canada, read at the International Congress on Tuberculosis at Washington. This is not a popular lecture, but an expert's contribution to the de- liberations of experts. It deals, not with individual effort against the disease, but with the far more difficult question of how best to organise national effort. Two points stand out clearly. and will be endorsed by all practical men. A national campaign against bovine tuberculosis aided by com- pulsory legislation -whatever its provisions -will be a much more difficult undertaking than many theorists even yet suppose. But no effective control of the disease is possible to the present genera- tion, without compulsory legisla- tion. Undoubtedly such lectures as that just delivered by Sir John M'Fadyean do much good by en- lightening the really sensible and honest stockowners. They stimul- ate a few linen to more or less earnest voluntary effort ; but, for a long time to come. they can only influence the minority of agricul• turists. Their effect upon the ignorance and indifference of the majority is very slow, and they cannot influence the not incon- siderable section capable of wilful- ly concealiug contagious disease. Compulsion is necessary for the two latter classes. When compul- sion is adopted, the ignorant and careless owner will learn something of the disease, and the law regard- ing it, for his'ovrn protection, while the unscrupulous one can be dealt with as he deserves. A year of coercion has' more popular effect than a decade of argument and persuasion ; but, while scientists are struggling to educate. the masses with regard to tuberculosis, the authorities withhold the one assistance needful. The fact that assistance could be given at any moment makes the delay more inexcusable. Legislation against tuberculosis, when it does commence, is not likely, to be very drastic at first, but we now know so mnoh about the disease that our first steps, if slow, should be sure. When noti- fication of clinical tuberculosis is made compulsory, the first real advance will have been, made. That stop would enable the most dangerous animals to be dealt with at once, while giving the veter- inary inspector a footing upon farms where such animals had U,D O■m O D O■R 4 D ®4D ®O D SRO e D ORD O D ORD C D QLG:0 D 1} Big Sale •.. 1 g 1 e 8 a 1 1 0 110w On at the •1 Blake Store., Come in and see how well we can suit yon,b0th in quality and in price. � Highest Prices For Farm Produce d 0 R.■ DOUGLAS General Merchant, B L A K E. 5 rionammaimaramsroonsumagh That New Winter.

Pure• bred herds ''are the principal agents in disseminat- ing disease" in Canada. Probably, the same truth applies here. In Canada, also, the owners of pure stock, far from assisting the cam- paign against tuberculosis, gener- ally do their best to thwart it. Certainly this applies here also. Legislation against tuberculosis involves a greater immediate financial loss to the pedigree owner than to the average farmer. and the selfish opposition of a few influential agriculturists has hitherto prevented effective legis lation in this country. Foreign buyers are rapidly realis- ing the condition of our English herds, and before long the pedigree breeders, their market for diseased cattle gone, will cry for legislation. But in the meantime the disease continues its ravages amongst cattle practically unchecked, an- nually causing an enormous waste, and the logs of not a few human lives, Surely the Government will look a little ahead, and take action before pedigree breeders join in asking for it," FROM THE OFFICE OF THE "VETERINARY DIRECTOR GEN ERAL.
