An order in council has Leen 'pas- sed providing for Federal inspect- ors and Federal compensation for condemned cattle where municipal- ities undertake regulation of milk sales. It is specified that the city or town must first provide for licen- sing all milk vendors, for clean and sanitary. dairies, for thé prohibi- tion of the milk sales within two years of the first test of the cattle of any dairy unless a clean bill of health is shown, and for the ap- pointment of a municipal inspector. On fulfillment of these. conditions and on application being made by the municipality to the Veterinary Director-General, Federal Inspect- ors will be sent to make tuberculin tests.
