Section 120. That no diseased cattle or other animals, nor 
any that have been exposed to any disease that is contagious 
among such animals shall be brought into the citv of New 
York. 
Section 121. That no animal having glanders and farcy, or 
any contagious disease, or that shall die thereof, shall be re¬ 
moved, disposed of, or exposed in any street or public place, in 
said city without a written permit from said Board of Health 
and then only in accordance with the terms of such permit. 
Section 185. That every veterinary surgeon who is called 
to examine or professionally attend any animal within the city 
of New York having glanders or farcy or any contagious dis¬ 
ease, shall within 24 hours thereafter report in writiag to the 
Board of Health of such city the following facts—viz.: ist, A 
statement of the location of such diseased animal; 2d, the name 
and address of the owner thereof; 3d, the type and character of 
the disease.” This compels the report on all cases of tuberculosis. 
Section 59. That no person shall sell, deliver, or offer or 
have for sale or keep for use, or bring or send to said city any 
skimmed, watered or adulterated milk, or milk known as “ swill 
milk ” or milk from sick or diseased cows. 
Sections 75, 76, 77 and 78. Driving and Leading Cattle 
through Streets .— Prohibits the driving or leading of cattle 
through streets, except under certain conditions (as one person 
for each animal, animal properly marked for identification for 
owner and destination by sign or symbol, which must be filed 
in Department of Health when applying for permit, and no 
animal to be driven without a permit). 
Now, to review the law. .By State laws and regulations all 
parts of the State should and would receive equal inspection and 
care, and all dairymen would receive proper compensation for 
their diseased animals ; this would be fair and just and the peo¬ 
ple would be protected at their own expense for a pure, healthy 
article of food ; the farmer would get rid of his diseased cows

to be done fair would require an appropriation large enough to 
carry on the work in all counties, and not in a few favored 
counties as heretofore.
