REPORT OF INSPECTOR OF CATTLE.
TO THE SELECTMEN OF FRANKLIN :
Number of inspections made at slaughter house, 254 ; beeves, 11 ; tuberculous 4 ; veals, 107 ; tuberculous, 2 ; Hogs, 105 ; tuberculous, 3.
Number of animals placed in quarantine, 111; con- demned, 101 ; released, 10.
I have not made a full, general inspection during the past year. Through neglect of the commission to notify me when to commence this work, I had only ten days in which to accom- plish it. By the examinations which I have made at the re- quest of owners, I think we have accomplished more in get- ting rid of diseased animals than in former years.
Respectfully, submitted,
T. L. MARTIN, V. S.,
Franklin, Feb. 1, 1897.
Inspector.
