VETERINARY SANITARY SERVICE IN MANITOBA. 
4S5 
Province for some time past, has been appointed Consulting 
Veterinarian to the Department at a fixed salary. He will advise 
the Department on veterinary matters, and is empowered to 
exercise jurisdiction in any portion of the Province. 
It is the intention of the Department to appoint one qualified 
veterinary surgeon in each county in the Province, thus making 
twenty-two in all. It has not been practicable to carry out this 
intention at present, owing to some districts being without a 
resident veterinary surgeon, and in such cases the district veterin¬ 
arian for a neighboring county has been given jurisdiction over 
two or more. 
The district veterinarians are to be paid at a fixed rate per 
day while actually employed by the Department, and a reasonable 
amount for mileage. 
The following is a complete list of the veterinarians so far 
appointed, the list previously published having been incomplete
