M. l”toop`s abattoir on the Kensington Road, east of the city. where, it had been learned there were carcascs of two tubercutous cattle recently slaughtered.
Those two animals had been
bought from a farmer a few days ago .for $150. As may be inferred from the price paid. they were a fine pair or animals and in no way' gave any indi- "ation ol’ disease. They were honest- ly :old by a rnan who believed they were prime' beef. and honestly prir-, chased by a man accustomed to buy~ ing aint slauglrtering cattle and who believed he was getting full value for his money. On the animals, being slaughtered they were found to be tubercu-ions, lungs. pteurs and liver at mass of putrid tuberculosis.
l)r. llerorne, assistant to l)r. Pet-
hick. Provincial Ve'terinary inspector.. showed the visitors the diseased parts ot the carca-ses and answered a great many questions informal-ly ns-

Dr. De- rome stated, an'd his statement was concurred in byi (hd Health Officer, that the only way in which disease couild be detected was by examining tho caress-e with the head and organs at- tached. Asked further. if it wuull not be advisable to inspect meat of- fered for sale in the market, he said that such inspection, even by it skill- ed veterinary, won-ld he absolutely use- less unless the head and organs were attached for examination.
