Live Stock Sanitary Condition in the Territory. 
The three Deputy Territorial veterinarians all report satis- 
factory conditions among the live stock in their districts, both 
among work stock and food producing animals. No cases of 
glanders have occurred on either Hawaii or Maui for a consider- 
able period, but tuberculosis seems to prevail to some extent 
among the dairy cattle on Kauai. The local deputy reports hav- 
ing tested with tuberculin a large herd, 25 per centum of which 
reacted and were destroyed. 
Dr. Fitzgerald of Maui, reports having just finished a large 
w^ell equipped veterinary hospital at Camp 5 (Puunene) on the 
Hawaiian Commercial Sugar Company’s plantation. This makes 
the third hospital on the Baldwin plantation (Paia, Camp 1 and 
Camp 5), which has been established since he took charge of the 
live stock sanitation of Maui. His efforts in having the old and 
unsanitary stables replaced with new and modern ones have also 
been rewarded and there can be little doubt that the extra dis- 
bursements and the amount of care which a number of the Maui 
plantations have been induced to expend on their work stock will 
be fully repaid through prolonged and more efficient service from 
each individual animal — a result which it would be well worth 
while for all plantations and other owners of work stock to 
emulate.
