Show THE NEW VETERINARY BILL. After repeated attempts to secure for this state a State Veterinarian, who wiil have charge of the inspection inspect-ion of the diseases of live stock in the state, success came in the passage of House bill No. 82, by Mr. J. R. Porter of Morgan, during the closing clos-ing hours of the last Legislature. The bill iprovidcs that the State Veterinarian Veterin-arian shall be connected with the Agricultural College, and he shall be selected by the Governor and the Board of Trustc-cs of the College. Half of his time is to be devoted to State work and half of his time to the work of the College. Mr. Porter spent a great deal of time during the Legislative session in securing the enactment of this bill, and we congratulate him and the people peo-ple of the State on the fact that Utah has at last fallen in line with other progressive commonwealths, and that we arc hereafter to have the protection protect-ion that will be afforded by the creation crea-tion of this office. |
