UNITED STATES CONTROL.
American authorities claim that foot-and-mouth disease, pletiro-pneumonia and rinderpest, which have taken heavy toll in many other countries, have been kept out of the United States by the vigilance of veterinarians. Tuberculosis, the fourth great bovine scourge of the world, is claimed bv them to be practically controlled, and within a vear the whole of the United States will lie officially accredited as free of this disease. _ What has been done in the United States, and in other countries as well, with bovine tuberculosis could be attempted in this Dominion, which depends to such a great extent on the health of its livestock for its prosperity.
