TUBERCULOSIS AND MAMMITIS.
It is stated -that Eoveral Wairarapa dairy farmors propose to have their, cows tested with tuberculin as' soon as they are dried off for the season. Tho Stock Department undertakes this - duty free. , .Mammitis .is another disease rwhich now. ranks almost with tuberculosis as a danger in the dairy hords. It is more swift 'in its .work, of rendering the cow, useless,' and farmers^are 1 becoming fully alive to the need of'watching for-it. Septic mammitis, is very contagious, and no absolutely sure cure'is yet' prescribed.- Investigations, > however, are proceeding both in New Zealand and elsowhere'with the object of securing the mastery, of this most ' destructive, diseaso. Its ultimate'elimination is not beyond hope. ~
