upon any peace officer in the neighborhood of such disease to 
enforce the orders of such board respecting such disease, and to 
observe and carry out the rules, orders and instructions which he 
may receive therefrom. Such board may prescribe regula¬

for the proper dispensation of their hides and carcasses and of 
all objects which might convey the infection or contagion, and

and other objects or places from or by which such infection or 
contagion might be communicated. The State Board of Health

other persons as it may deem necessary, to assist in the inspec¬

tuberculosis, prescribe rules and regulations for such inspectors 
and employes, and fix their compensation.
