WILLIAM McKINLEY, President of the United States, FROM PHOTOGRAPH BY COURTNEY, CANTON, OHIO. PREFACH. It has been very gratifying to be able to prepare, in the last days of the Nineteenth Century, an appropriate souvenir of the Bureau of Animal Industry as it exists at this time. There have been many im- portant duties committed to this Bureau, some were educational, some consisted in the protection of property, others in the preservation of our export trade, and still others in alleviating animal suffering and in guard- ing the public health. To the development and guidance of this Bureau during its earlier and more critical period, the Author has given the best years of his life. From its establishment he has given the questions which have arisen in connection with this service his constant study- The utility of the service and its conservative direction are made evident by the growth and popularity of the Bureau from its organization to the present time. There are comparatively few persons who know of the great work which this Bureau has accomplished in scientific research, in the eradica- tion of animal diseases, in guarding against the importation of exotic plagues, in preserving our export trade in animals and animal products, in opening new markets for these products in foreign lands, and, above all, in protecting the health of our people by the condemnation and de- struction of diseased meat. This work is so widely distributed and is carried on so quietly without ostentation or display that it has not at- tracted the public notice which its importance deserves. Nor have the members of the staff who have been cooperating for years had an op- portunity to form a general acquaintance with each other. It has, there - fore, appeared extremely desirable to collect and bring together, in one volume, a brief account of this work, and such portraits and biographi- cal notes of those engaged in this service at the end of the century as could be obtained. No individual, by his unaided efforts, could have achieved success in the preparation of this volume. ‘The undertaking has been much more extensive and exacting than was anticipated; and it has been only through the generous and cordial cooperation of those engaged in the Bureau service that it is possible to present the completed book within a reasonable time from the inception of the plan. To all who have aided in any manner to make this volume worthy of the Bureau and its great work, the Author extends the assurance of his sincere appreciation. D. EF. SALMON. WasHINGToN, D.C., December 31, 1900. JAMES WILSON, cretary of Agri culture, Se o THE BUREAU OF ANIMAL INDUSTRY. The Bureau of Animal Industry was established by an act of Congress approved May 29,1884. This act provided for a chief, a clerk, and ‘‘a force sufficient for this purpose, not to exceed twenty persons at any one time.”’ WHY THE BUREAU OF ANIMAL INDUSTRY WAS ESTABLISHED. The immediate cause of the establishment of this Bureau was the urgent need by the Federal Government of reliable official information concerning the nature and prevalence of animal diseases and of the means required to control and to eradicate them, and, also, the necessity of having an executive agency to put into effect the measures necessary to stop the spread of disease and to protect the animal industry of the nation. Our exported cattle and sheep had recently been refused admission into Great Britain and condemned to slaughter upon the docks where landed because of alleged contagious diseases in this country dangerous to foreign live stock. Our pork had been prohibited entrance into most of the countries of continental Europe because it was alleged to be af- fected with trichine, and, therefore, dangerous to the health and lives of the consumers. ‘Twenty-five to thirty million dollars worth of hogs were dying each year from contagious disease. Cattle raisers were in a con- dition bordering upon panic from fear of Texas fever and contagious pleuro-pneumontia, and State restrictions intended to guard against these diseases were seriously interfering with interstate traffic in bovine animals. Sheep raising had become precarious in many sections because of scab and other parasitic diseases. These injurious conditions were so burdensome, and aroused such apprehensions of far greater losses in the future, that there was an agita- tion and repeated demands for governmental assistance which culminated in 1884 in the enactment of the organic act of this Bureau. The losses from diseases among animals had long been great, and the second Commissioner of Agriculture had occasion to call attention, in his second and third annual reports, to ‘‘ the prevalence of fatal mala- dies among all varieties of farm animals, resulting in the annual loss of not less than fifty million dollars.’’ In 1870, Commissioner Capron re- newed the subject, referring particularly to a forthcoming report upon pleuro-pneumonia and Texas fever, diseases then prevalent and recently investigated under the supervision of the Department. He says in his annual report: ‘“The value of stock lost annually from disease is enormous, and 9 threatens not only to decimate our animals, but to expose the human family to disease from the consumption of unwholesome meats.” Here was an early recognition not only of the importance of under- standing and controlling animal diseases, but of the still greater neces - sity of protecting the consumer of meats from products contaminated by disease and therefore unwholesome. In other words, it was a Tecog- nition of the growing need of meat inspection. THE ERADICATION OF PLEURO-PNEUMONIA. The most pressing duty devolving upon the new Bureau was the control and eradication of the contagious pleuro-pneumonia of cattle, a disease which had been already the cause of restrictions upon our ex- ported cattle, and which, it appeared, might soon lead to the entire prohibition of this branch of the export trade. Notwithstanding the urgent demand for effective work, the authority given at first was most inadequate. It was not until 1887 that the Bureau was allowed to em - ploy a sufficient force and to use its appropriation properly for stamping out the disease. By this time, the contagion, which had been found prior to 1884 in only a few States on the Atlantic seaboard, had spread to Ohio, Illinois, Kentucky, and Missouri, and threatened to cover such a large area as to be uncontrollable. By hard and systematic work, however, persisted in for five years, pleuro-pneumonia was completely eradicated, and since early in 1892 no case of this disease has been discovered in the United States. This first work in which the Bureau was engaged was remarkable in its results, because it succeeded in a very few years in accomplishing what other countries, such as Great Britain, France, Germany, and Belgium, had labored for years to do, without success. During the period which elapsed between the creation of the Bureau in 1884 and the complete eradication of pleuro-pneumonia in 1892, the scieutific work of the Bureau had been pressed forward vigorously. The germs of hog cholera and swine plague were discovered and care- fully studied, and Texas fever,the most mysterious of diseases at the time its investigation was commenced, was thoroughly elucidated by the discovery of the cause and the method of dissemination by means of the cattle tick. SCIENTIFIC INVESTIGATIONS. In the study of the hog cholera bacillus, it was shown that this germ produces some substance, in the liquids in which it is grown, which is capable of conferring immunity upon animals when injected beneath the skin. The establishment of this new principle gave an im- petus to the study of immunity in all parts of the world and led to the discovery of the various toxins and antitoxins which are now so largely used in both human and veterinary medicine. The demonstration that a contagious disease, such as Texas fever, was caused by one of the protozoa, and that this organism was trans- ferred from animal to animal by a second parasite, the southern cattle tick, opened up another new field in medicine, which has led to the dis- covery that the malarial parasite and probably the organism of yellow 10 fever are transmitted from man to man by mosquitoes. While many other discoveries have been made during the investigations carried on by the Bureau, the two just mentioned, because they were so unexpected and differed so widely from accepted theories, have had a greater influ- ence on the progress of medical knowledge than any others. MEAT INSPECTION. The year 1891 marks the beginning of a second era in the Bureau of Animal Industry, because it was then that Congress enacted legislation establishing the Federal meat inspection service and the inspection and regulation of vessels carrying export cattle from the ports of the United States to foreign countries. The meat inspection act directs the Secre- tary of Agriculture to inspect, previous to their slaughter, all cattle, sheep, and swine, the carcasses of which are to be disposed of through the interstate or foreign trade, and authorizes him, in his discretion, to make a post-mortem inspection. This enormous undertaking, which was added to the many other duties of the Bureau, was designed to pro- tect our domestic consumers from the meat of diseased animals, and at the same time to enable the Government to certify to the wholesomeness of exported meats. It was specially provided that no beef should be allowed to go abroad unless it had been inspected, and was certified as free from disease. The magnitude of this work was probably not appreciated by Con- gress at the time the legislation was enacted, although the desirability of such an inspection is incontestable. Owing to the great extent of our territory and the enormous number of animals slaughtered, it was impossible to at once cover the whole country. It was necessary to in- struct inspectors and devise a system of administration with proper safe- guards. Beginning at a comparatively few abattoirs, the service has been gradually extended until it is now established in 45 cities and covers the product of 148 abattoirs. The growth of the meat inspection service is shown by the following table, which gives the number of animals inspected before slaughter from 1891 to 1900, and indicates the enormous number of animals that are annually slaughtered in the United States for the preparation of food products: alnimals Inspected for Abattotrs.

In 1881 our pork was prohibited entrance into Germany, France, and the principal countries of the continent of Europe, on the ground that it was intested by trichinze and was injurious to human health. Although it could not be shown that our pork had caused disease, and notwithstanding the most vigorous protests by the American Gov- ernment, the trade was crushed and destroyed. The year before the prohibition went into effect we sold to France 70,000,000 pounds and to Germany 43,000,000 pounds. For ten years our pork was shut out of nearly every market of con- tinental Europe, when, in 1891, the Bureau began the microscopic in- spection and certification of pork destined for the markets of the pro- hibiting countries. This action led to the removal of the prohibitions, but the restoration of the trade was a slow and difficult process, Our brands of meat were no longer familiar to the people of those countries, commercial connections had been severed, and requirements as to cuts and cures had materially changed. It was like introducing an article into a country for the first time. Moreover, the prohibition had en- gendered suspicion of our products, while the agitation had established prejudice and antipathy. There were vexatious and burdensome re- strictions by both the general and municipal governments, with ill-con- cealed hostility and every form of annoyance on the part of many officials. Notwithstanding such adverse conditions, the trade with these countries was gradually regained, as is seen from the following table, which gives the quantity of pork, microscopically inspected, that has been sold each year in prohibiting countries since the inspection began: Shipments of Pork Microscopically Inspected, Fiscal Vears, 1892-1900.

An American type of microscope was, therefore, selected, 2 the grooved stage was adopted to insure the examination of every part of the specimen, and a special form of compressor was used. The packers were averse to the inspection because they feared it would delay their business and damage their meat. They thought it would be impossible to examine any considerable quantity of pork with- out causing them serious inconvenience. ‘These fears proved to be groundless. The work of the abattoirs has not been obstructed nor has the meat been injured. On the contrary, the success of the microscopic inspection has been such that, when the market is favorable, there are the most urgent appeals for its extension. INSPECTION, TAGGING, AND CERTIFICATION OF EXPORT ANIMALS. The fear expressed by foreign governments of the introduction of pleuro-pneumonia, Texas fever, and other contagicus diseases with animals from the United States made it necessary to adopt some method by which the history of the cattle exported could be ascertained, and the animals inspected, numbered, and recorded, so that a certificate could be issued showing freedom from contagion or exposure to contagion. Accordingly, a system of inspection was adopted under the act approved August 30, 1890. A numbered tag was placed in the ear of all cattle, and a certificate of health issued for such animals. Sheep were also in- spected, and more recently (1899) horses have been included. The number of animals inspected and exported is seen by the follow - ing table: Table Showing Number of Export Animals Inspected leach Year. Fiscal Year. | Cattle. | Sheep. Horses.) Total.

The trade has been preserved, and has given a greatly needed outlet for meat-produc- ing animals during the years when the surplus of such stock was great - est. he exportation of horses is comparatively a recently established traffic, and has been growing rapidly. It was early met with hostility ; and threats of prohibition, on the ground of glanders affecting the ani- mals when they entered foreign countries, led to the establishment of an inspection of these animals. REGULATION OF SHIPS THAT CARRY EXPORT ANIMALS. Another danger that menaced our export trade had its origin in the mproperly fitted ships and in the alleged cruel treatment ot animals on shipboard. In the early years of the transatlantic trafhc, before the large and commodious cattle boats of the present day were con- structed, these animals were largely carried on ‘‘ tramp’’ ships,—vessels which were not engaged in a regular trade, but which were sent from port to port after such cargo as could be obtained. As such ships might not carry cattle on more than one or two voyages a year, they had only temporary cattle fittings, and were without conveniences for supplying the proper quantities of food and water. ‘The pens were so insecure and so exposed that frequently both fittings and cattle were washed over- board. The attendants were often inexperienced and worthless. The space was overcrowded. The ventilation was insufficient. The boats were occasionally unseaworthy. Asa result of these conditions, reports frequently reached the pub- lic of ships arriving in British ports affer an unusually long voyage, with the feed and water exhausted and the animals dying from hunger and thirst. Sometimes during storms it was necessary to fasten down the hatches, and then, it was alleged, that, on account of insufficient ventilation, large numbers of animals would die asphyxiated. Again, it occasionally happened that, in heavy seas, the weight of the cattle would be thrown upon the halters with such force that the fastenings would give way and the animals be mixed and jammed together in the ereatest confusion. If the attendants were inexperienced, or, for any cause, unequal to the occasion, some of the animals would be crushed and trampled to death, others would be bruised and maimed, and the general appearance of those landed would make a most unfavorable im - pression. Such occurrences could scarcely fail to attract the attention of hu mane people abroad, particularly when the sentiment of humanity was intensified by the desire to limit American competition. ‘The barbarities of the transatlantic cattle traffic were described in language glowing with indignation and horror, the cruelties were exaggerated and multi- plied, atrocities were described that never were committed, and illus- trated pamphlets were prepared and circulated in order that the full power of sensationalism might be invoked. As a result of this agita- tion, a bill was presented to the British Parliament to prohibit the im- portation of live cattle from beyond the seas, and the Queen was strongly urged, in the name of humanity, to use her influence to secure its passage. This emergency was met by the act of March 3, 1891, authorizing the Secretary of Agriculture to enforce necessary regulations to secure the safe carriage and humane treatment of cattle exported from the United States. Careful investigations were at once made by the Bureau of Animal Industry and regulations formulated which were acceptable to the British Government. The rigid enforcement of such regulations led to the withdrawal of the poorer class of ships from this trade, since they could not compete with the regular liners if compelled to fit ina 14 safe and comfortable style. Magnificent iron cattle-ships were con- structed, with permanent fittings, and having all the comfort, conveni- ence, and safety which human ingenuity could provide. The losses of cattle in transit were soon reduced to the minimum of about one-third of 1 percent. ‘Tne cattle were unloaded in as good condition, as vig- orous, and healthy as they were when they went on board Asa result of the improved conditions, and the greatly diminished losses, insurance rates were reduced from $8 and upwards per head of exported cattle to less than $1 per head. ‘This saving of insurance alone, with an average exportation of 325,000 head, amounts to $2,275,000 per year, nearly three times the entire cost of maintaining the Bureau. INSPECTION AND QUARANTINE OF IMPORTED ANIMALS. If the eradication of contagious diseases is important—and this is a proposition scarcely admitting of question—it is no less important to stop the importation of contagion with animals coming into the country. Accordingly, one of the first steps taken for the control of contagious diseases among animals was the establishment of quarantine stations at the principal Atlantic ports, where imported animals might be detained until there was no longer any danger of the development of disease from exposure to contagion in other countries. These stations were at first under the direction of the Treasury Department, but soon after the organization of the Bureau of Animal Industry they were transferred to its control. It was only the realization that pleuro- pneumonia had been allowed to spread to a considerable though unknown extent among our herds, and had caused serious restrictions to be placed upon our export cattle trade, that led our Government to take even this first step for the protec~ tion of American live stock. We had taken the risk of importing the most destructive plagues for years without giving them much thought. Our people, always buoyant and optimistic, and never willing to con- sider danger or admit the possibility of trouble until it is upon them, could not be induced to guard against the danger to which they were ex- posed until they had actually experienced some of the inconvenience and loss which come from the neglect of such precautions. The estab- lishment of quarantine stations furnished the necessary means to exclude further importations of contagion, and permitted us to undertake the eradication of pleuro-pneumonia with confidence that when the exist- ing centers of the disease had been discovered and stamped out we should not be troubled by new outbreaks caused by imported cattle. Three stations are maintained on the Atlantic coast—one at the port of Boston, one at New York, and one at Baltimore. In the early years of these stations, several importations of animals affected with foot-and- mouth disease were detected, and one importation of pleuro-pneumonia was discovered in the Canadian quarantine. During recent years certifi - cates of healthfulness and freedom from exposure have been required to accompany imported animals, and permits for importation are refused for animals from countries in which dangerous contagious diseases are prevalent. 15 The inspection system has been extended so as to include the frontiers bordering upon both Canada and Mexico. The principal problems in this case are to prevent the importations of animals carry - ing the contagion of glanders, tuberculosis, sheep scab, and Texas fever. Tuberculosis is the most difficult to detect, and, in order to guard against it so far as possible, cattle for breeding or dairy purposes are tested with tuberculin. This test is also applied to cattle imported through the At- lantic ports. Notwithstanding the numerous sources of disease in countries from which animals are imported, and the vast numbers of such animals which are annually brought to our country from abroad, the Bureau has successfully protected our animal industry from this danger. DISTRIBUTION OF LABORATORY PRODUCTS FOR THE CONTROL OF DISEASE. A great work has been done by the Bureau in the preparation of certain laboratory products used in controlling animal diseases. The preparation of tuberculin was undertaken soon after its discovery, and this article and mallein have been furnished to State authorities to be used in the diagnosis of tuberculosis and glanders. More recently the manufacture and distribution of a vaccine for blackleg in cattle has been very successfully conducted, and more than one million doses are now used per annum. ‘These laboratory products are made at very little expense to the Government and have become essential in combating the diseases mentioned. DAIRY WORK. One of the most important sections of the animal industry is that devoted to dairying—the production of milk, butter, and cheese. Recog- nizing the great amount of capital invested in such work, a dairy di- vision was created in the Bureau, and efforts have been made to collect and distribute information, to keep in touch with those engaged in the industry, and to assist in building up an export trade to foreign coun- tries. The success of this line of work is unquestioned. The dairy bulletins have done much in an educational way, and the experimental exports of dairy products have demonstrated the excellence of American dairy products. PRESENT ORGANIZATION OF THE BUREAU. In 1891 it was found that the growth and extension of the work of the Bureau made it desirable that it should be reorganized into a number of distinct divisions, in order that it might be better systematized and directed. ‘There have been formed, up to the present time, the following divisions : (1) The inspection division, to which is assigned work of an execu- tive nature, including the eradication of contagious diseases, the inspec - tion of export and import animals, meat inspection, vessel inspection, and the regulation of the movement of Southern cattle (to prevent the spread of Texas fever). 16 (2) The pathological division, which is principally engaged in in- vestigating the diseases among domesticated animals to determine their nature, cause, and treatment, together with the most practical method of prevention. (3) The biochemic division, to which is assigned the chemical prob - lems arising during the investigation of disease and the preparation of tuberculin, mallein, and the various serums for the prevention and cure of disease. (+) The zoological laboratory, to which is assigned the study of the parasites affecting our domesticated animals and the diseases which they induce. (5) The dairy division, which collects and disseminates informa- tion relating to the dairy industry in the United States. (6) The miscellaneous division, which has supervision over the accounts and expenditures, conducts the general correspondence in regard to diseases and the animal industry of the country, and directs the field investigations. (7) The experimental station, where the animals used in the ex- periments are kept, where small animals for these purposes are bred, and where antitoxic serums for animal diseases are prepared. All of this machinery of the Bureau is working in one way or another to stop the losses and to increase the receipts of the stock- raisers of the United States. ‘To understand the different lines of this work, the objects in view, and what is being accomplished, the following tabular statement may be found useful : Table Showing the Work of the Bureau of Animal [ndustry.

DaNteEL ELMER SauwMon, Chiet of the Bureau of Animal Industry, was born at Mount Olive, Morris County, N. J., July 28, 1850. His early life was passed partly on a farm and partly as a clerk in a country store. Was educated at the Mount Olive district school, Chester Institute, Eastman Business College, and Cornell University. He entered Cornell University at its opening in 1868, being a member of its first freshman class. Here he became acquainted with Prof. James Law, who had just come to America to fill the chair of veterinary science in this new and progressive institution, and after consulting with him decided to take the scientific course for the first year and after that gradually take up veterinary studies, with a view of graduating from that department at the end of four years. This plan was substantially carried out, but as the clinical facilities at Ithaca at that time were not as extensive as were desirable, he was allowed to attend the Alfort Veterinary School, Paris, during the last six months of his course without prejudice to his standing at Cornell University. He was zraduated at Cornell in 1872 with the degree of Bachelor of Veterinary Science. He was married the same year to Mary Thompson Corning, of Ithaca, and began veterinary practice in Newark, N. J. In 1875, on account of impaired health, he went to Asheville, N. C., for the benefit of the southern mountain climate. In 1876 he received from Cornell the advanced degree of Doctor of Veterinary Medicine. In 1877 he delivered a course of lectures on veterinary science in the University of Georgia. The appropriation of $10,000 in 1878 for the investigation of animal diseases led to his appointment for a period of two months to study the diseases of swine. He was appointed an inspector of the State of New York in 1879 to serve on the staff of Professor Law in the effort to stamp out the contagious pleuro-pneumo- nia of cattle. Here he had an opportunity by daily observation to acquire a thorough knowledge of the disease and of the methods of controlling it. This work was arrested in the autumn by the exhaustion of the appropriation, and he accepted an appointment from Commissioner Le Duc of the United States De- partment of Agricuiture to investigate animal diseases in the Southern States, with particular reference to Texas cattle fever. These investigations were the starting point of the scientific work conducted by Dr. Salmon, or under his direc- tion, concerning fowl cholera, the contagious diseases of swine, Texas fever, and the nodular disease of sheep, which have cleared up the principal points as to the cause, nature and control of these diseases. Early in 18838 he was called to Washington by Commissioner Loring to estab- lish a veterinary division in the Department of Agriculture. Within a year Con- gress passed an act establishing the Bureau of Animal Industry, and Dr. Salmon was appointed Chief of this Bureau, a position which he has held uninterruptedly until the present time. His work in the Bureau of Animal Industry is briefly told in the sketch of the Bureau which appears elsewhere in this volume. The most important things accomplished are: 1. The complete eradication of the conta- 283 gious pleuro-pneumonia of cattle from the United States. 2. The study and con- irol of Texas fever. 3. The establishment of the Federal meat inspection serv- ice. 4. The establishment of the inspection of exported animals, and the ships carrying them, thus doing away with the cruel treatment and suffering which had been a startling feature of this traffic, reducing the losses and preserving the trade. 5. The preservation of the country from imported diseases by per fecting the system of inspecting and quarantining imported animals. 6. The scientific investigation of animal diseases, and their bearing upon public health questions. Dr. Salmon is an honorary Associate of the Royal College of Veterinary Sur- geons of Great Britain; Fellow of the American Association for the Advance- inceut of Science; chairman of the committee on animal diseases and animal food of the American Public Health Association; ex-president and member of the executive committee of the American Veterinary Medical Association; mem- ber of the Washington Academy of Sciences, and of various other bodies de- voted to medical and general science.
