100 feet of 3-ply steam hose and attachments, two spraying 

 nozzles, and an extra supply of leather valves. Imple- 

 ments such as shovels, forks, hoes, scrapers, picks, crowbars, 

 axes, etc., used in connection with the cleaning of the 

 premises before disinfection must also be procured. In 

 order to facilitate the transportation of the pumps and 

 equipment, it is advisable to have made for each outfit a 

 wooden chest fitted with lock and key. This chest should 

 be made like a carpenter's tool chest. 



Care of Supplies. — From the beginning a competent 

 lay inspector should be detailed to look after the supplies. 

 His duties should consist in receiving and issuing supplies, 

 keeping records of all supplies received, issued, ordered, 

 or exchanged, and to see that additional supplies are 

 ordered in time, so that they will be received before the 

 supplies on hand are exhausted. 



EQUIPMENT OF INSPECTORS. 



Personal Disinfection. — All veterinarians and others 

 engaged in the examination of animals for symptoms of 

 foot-and-mouth disease, or who have occasion to visit any 

 premises upon which such animals have been kept, shall

 ment: 



1 suit case or other receptacle for carrying department 



property, disinfectants, etc.
