BOVINE HEMOEEHAGIC SEPTICEMIA:—''! have been to the 
Parker Eanch several times during the month and reports from there 
are to the effect that no cases of hemorrhagic septicemia have been 
observed since last May." 
Dr. Elliot reports as follows: 
POET INSPECTION:— July 9, Steamship ex Enterprise, 3 crates of 
poultry. 
July 17, Permit No. 39, Manuel Freita.s, 3 cows to Honolulu. 
TUBEECULOSIS CONTEOL:— Hilo-Onomea Dairy, 31 head— all 
passed. 
July 1, post-morten examination, one cow — no lesions of tuberculosis 
could be demonstrated. 
CONTEOL OF CONTAGIOUS DISEASES:— Nothing to report. 
Dr. Fitzgerald reports as follows: 
HEMOEEHAGIC SEPTICEMIA CONTROL:— The outlook is macii 
brighter than heretofore. The mortality in the various outbreaks ha.^ 
virtually stopped as no death,s have been reported recently and only one 
animal has died in a paddock that had not been visited by this disease 
for quite a year, however, since inoculation no further deaths have oc- 
curred in this paddock. I do not consider this a fresh outbreak, as thi? 
particular pasture has been visited by this disease several times in the 
past two years, but not recently. 
The following animals have been immunized: 
In the past month three deaths have been reported in horses, all ('f 
which upon autopsy proved to be the pneumonic type of hemorrhagic 
septicemia. As a result of these scattered deaths in the Kula district, 
I have made a trip of inspection and investigation around the island, 
visiting all the west Maui ranches and interrogating the owners as to 
their losses among horses and cattle. I found that there had been very 
few deaths in cattle, but for many years in some districts, it had been 
almost impossible to raise horses.
