The first change raises the age limit on vaccinated calves ai- ll wed 1 0 be removed from a herd quarantined for brucellosis, vac cinates over 18 months formerly could not leave a quarantined herd; the order just signed lifts the age limit to under 30 months in beef cattle and 24 months in dairy herds. Don Parker, assistant attorney general with the state depart ment of agriculture, said that this order points up the advant ages of a flexible brucellosis law, The 1957 legislature authorized the department to adopt the reg ulations for carrying out the new brucellosis program; if these reg ulations had been part of the state law, it would have been impossible to change them until the next time the legislature meets, Parker said. Another new regulation stip ulates that brucellosis suspects originating from brucellosis-infected herds must be sold only for slaughter at stockyards or livestock auction markets. They are required to move directly to a slaughtering establishment that has federal, state or munici pal meat inspection. The last addition contained in the order declares that cattle owners must use the official vet erinarian in the area for vacc ination and testing unless they obtain special permission from the department to use another official veterinarian and pay the costs themselves. According to Parker, the' de partment welcomes talks with cattlemen about their ideas for improving the program.
