Regulation 10. — All cattle 6 months old or over imported into the 
United States from Great Britain, Ireland, and the Channel Islands, 
and which are subject to quarantine, shall be tested with tuberculin 
by an inspector of the Bureau of Animal Industry either before being 
shipped or after arrival at the animal quarantine station at the port 
of entry ; and, when considered necessary, a subsequent tuberculin test 
of imported cattle shall be made during the last two weeks of their 
quarantine period. Cattle from countries not otherwise provided for 
shall be tested in the said quarantine stations. All cattle so tested 
which show a reaction shall be prohibited from entry into the United 
States, or be disposed of as provided in Regulation 16 of these regu- 
lations. Persons desiring animals tested abroad should address the 
inspector of the United States Bureau of Animal Industry care of

PERMITS FOR IMPORT ANIMALS. 
Regulation 11. — Any person contemplating the importation of cat- 
tle, sheep, and other ruminants, and swine, from any part of the world 
except Canada and Mexico must first obtain from the Secretary of 
Agriculture two permits, one stating the number and kind of animals 
to be imported, the port, and probable date of shipment, which will on 
presentation to the American consul at the said port of shipment 
entitle them to a clearance ; the other stating the port at which said 
animals are to be landed and quarantined, and the approximate date 
of their arrival, and this will assure their reception at the port and 
quarantine station on the date prescribed for their arrival or at any 
time during three weeks immediately following, after which the per- 
mit will be void. These permits shall in no case be available at any 
port other than the one mentioned therein. Permits must be in the 
name of the owner of or agent for each separate lot of animals. Per- 
mits will be issued to quarantine at such port as the importer may 
elect, so far as facilities exist at such port, but in no case will permits 
for importation at any port be granted in excess of the accommoda- 
tions of the Government quarantine station at such port.
