The above tabulated hst shows that 827 head of cattle were 

 submitted to the test of which 27 were condemned and branded. 

 Out of the total number tested 167 received the test for the first 

 time. Practically all of these new cows had been brought over 

 from the Island of Hawaii. 



In the last seventy-five or more cows tested I have used the 

 fold of the lower eyelid of the left eye as a more convenient place 

 to make the injection than the sub-caudal fold. The advantages 

 of making- the injection at this point are: 1st, the field of opera- 

 tion is clean, there being no possibility of infection from feces or 

 urine and although I have always regarded infection from these 

 two sources as practically nil it is better to do away with any 

 chance of it ; 2nd, there is no opportunity for any of the serum 

 to be squeezed out of the tissues as might readily happen in the 

 sub-caudal fold by strong depression and switching of the tail ; 

 3rd, the reactions are as a rule larger, some reaching the size of 

 the closed hand ; the view is unobstructed and ofl^ers easy com- 

 parison with the opposite side ; 4th, the head is far more easily 

 fixed and held in the desired position than the hind quarters, 

 thus greatly facilitating the proper injection of the serum and 

 doing away with all injury to the operator from vicious or highly 

 nervous animals.
