For such animals no appraisal will be made, and in case the owner 

 insists upon appraisal if condemned, a safe quarantine may be ordered 

 at his expense. In the case of glanders the course of the disease is slow 

 but fatal. Such animals also belong to the first class, and while nearly 

 always necessary to order the animals destroyed, the appraisal should be 

 upon the basis of the carcass. In the case of suspected glanders a quar- 

 antine may be ordered until the exact nature of the disease can be de- 

 termined. 



Tuberculosis is a slowly contagious disease, and animals so affected 

 will be held in quarantine, or the owner permitted to have them slaugh- 

 tered under the meat inspection rules and regulations of the Bureau 

 of Animal Industry. 



A tuberculin test will l)e made upon the request of the owner of 

 cattle upon the condition that he will dispose of affected animals in such 

 manner as he may be directed.
