In the period under review, the diseases of diphtheria and scarlet have decreased slightly compared to the previous month. Moreover, no notable health events have occurred. 7.) Veterinary services. The contagious swine paralysis in the district of Bischofteinitz is very low and even in the county of Mies there were only isolated outbreaks of epidemics. For the first time in the area the chicken plague was found in 2 farmhouses of a municipality of the district Mies. In general, the status of animal diseases is otherwise favorable. Emergency slaughters, often caused by tuberculosis and bone softness, have recently increased; the effects of food shortages, deficiencies in the keeping and care of animals are noticeable; in the case of animals found on slaughtering livestock markets, the predominantly low nutritional status is particularly noticeable. Unfortunately, the transport damage, which is usually due to too long duration of the transports, also accumulates. Thus within 14 days alone carol bath with the train 10 pigs arrived dead. In another transport of 39 pigs from West Prussia were killed 33. Here there is the suspicion of sabotage; the surveys are npch in progress. The carcase disposal facility in Podersam is completed in the raw building except for the chimney, whose parts have now been delivered. If there is no delay in the delivery of the machines, the facility is expected to be put into operation in May. In the execution of the veterinary service in the districts of Asch, Eger and Mariánské Lázně, due to insufficient allocation of petrol to the Government Veterinary Council, conditions in Eger which can no longer be held responsible are entered into. The official veterinarian is no longer able to make veterinary findings on the spot and to carry out the supplementary inspection of meat. My efforts to achieve a change in this condition by increasing the allocation of petrol have so far been unsuccessful. 8.)
