CONTAGIOUS PLEUROPNEUMONIA OF CATTLE 



The last case of contagious pleuro-pneumonia iu cattle known iu 

 North America was killed in New Jersey in 1892. This was the end 

 of a long, expensive fight against the disease which was successfully 

 conducted by the Federal Bureau of Animal Industry. It was the 

 most successful exhibition of animal hygiene ever accomplished 

 and stands to the present time as one of the greatest feats ever 

 accomplished by the Bureau of Animal Industry. The disease is 

 ever present in many parts of the old world and careful supervision 

 will be required to prevent a re-introduction of it into this country. 



We have a form of contagious pleuro-pneumonia in horses which 

 causes extensive losses in the city sales stables. It is often fatal 

 but is not communicable from horses to cattle. This disease can be 

 prevented and it may be necessary in the future to do something to 

 (heck its spread.
