IY. 



Hygienic Measures to be taken against the Exten- 

 sion of the Contagion Acts and Orders 

 concerning Sanitary Police Regulations. 



I HAVE purposely neglected, in discussing the 

 various plans of treatment, certain measures to 

 be adopted with the object of opposing the 

 spread of the contagion. The memorandum 

 published on this subject by the Privy Council, 

 and drawn up by Dr. Thudichum, is so com- 

 plete and so clear, that we can find nothing 

 better to say. I recommend its perusal to all 

 who possess horned cattle, and who have occa- 

 sion to send them to any distance. It is of 

 the highest importance to follow this judicious 

 advice, as the general interest will constitute 

 here the safeguard of the pecuniary interests 

 of each in particular. I add to this memo- 

 randum upon hygienic measures, the conso- 

 lidated and amended acts and orders published 

 under the head of " Sanitary Police." In this 

 way those interested will have beneath their 

 eyes all which it is important for them to 

 know, both in a medical and legal point of view.
