under police supervision, whether private or Government 

 property. 



"(7) Affected animals to be separated from healthy, to 

 have their own attendants, and no interchange of clothing, 

 utensils, etc., to take place. Those deemed curable to be 

 treated, those incurable to be destroyed. 



"(8) All horses attacked to be castrated, as well as those 

 which, notwithstanding their apparent good health, have 

 transmitted it to mares they have served, and also those which 

 have been put to infected mares. 



"(9) Mares that have been in the least affected and 

 apparently cured not to be covered the following year, or until 

 certified by a veterinary surgeon as cured. It is even better 

 to exclude all such mares entirely, and brand them as having 

 had the disease."
