FIFTEENTH ANNUAL YEAR BOOK — PART V 401 



Mr. Thatcher now offered the followiug resolutions: Resolved, that 

 the Iowa Swine Breeders' Association request Senator W. S. Kenyon to 

 introduce a bill into the United States senate requiring the placing of a 

 federal inspection at each commercial hog-cholera serum plant, to test 

 all serum before it is distributed, either for state or for interstate ship- 

 ment. 



It is indeed fitting that the state of Iowa should, through its Swine 

 Breeders' Association, thus instigate legislation which will inevitably 

 prove of deep significance for the swine industry the country over in 

 making possible a campaign of complete eradication of the plague of hog 

 cholera. 



The resolution was unanimously adopted and immediately forwarded 

 by wire to Senator Kenyon.
