 The images appearing hare arm tha best quality 
 possible considering the condition and legibility 
 of the original copy and in keeping with the 
 filming contract specifications. 
 
 Original copies in printed paper covers are filmed 
 beginning with the front cover and ending on 
 the last page with a printed or illustrated impres- 
 sion, or the back cover when appropriate. All 
 other original copies are filmed beginning on the

 shall contain the symbol —^ (meaning "CON- 
 TINUED"), or the symbol V (meaning "END"), 
 whichever applies. 
 
 Mapa, plates, charts, etc.. may be filmed at 
 different reduction ratios. Those too large to be 
 entirely included in one exposure are filmed 
 beginning in the upper left hand corner, left to 
 right and top to bottom, as many frames as 
 required. The following diagrams illustrate the 
 method:

 W. J. Gerald, Esq., 
 
 Deputy Minister of Inland Revenue. 
 
 Mir, — I recently had the honour of reporting to you the results of examining 
 samples of the cattle feeds and stock foods which are offered for sale to the agricultural 
 public of Canaf'ia. At the time these were collecte<l thi'ie were also obtained by the 
 food inspectors soinples of condition i>owder8 so calle<l, which were supposed, like the 
 stock fcMMls, to have good (effects in improving the appearance of the animals to whom 
 they were adn-'- ^"t"^ Of these condition jxiwders or cattle mtMlicines there were 
 collected in e which are described in the tabulated statement appende<l to 
 
 this report. '. • Id under the following names : — 
 
 Conditi<>.. ^'o-v, ders 24 samples. 
 
 Regulatxn's 3 
 
 Pheno-chloro 1 
 
 Cattle medicine 1 
 
 Hog powder 1 
 
 Worm powders , 3 
 
 Cholic cure 1 
 
 Heave cure 1 
 
 35 
 
 It will be seen that only 5 out of the 35 samples are cattle medicines intended for use 
 in cases of specified disease, while the other thirty are supposed to be applicable to all 
 the ills that cattle flesh is heir .'x). Tliis supposition is sustained by the claims actually 
 made on Iwhalf of about two-thirds of these samples on their labels or wrappers, and 
 noted in the column headed ' Inspectors' report.' Others, such as serial Nos. 5, 7, 8, 9, 
 18, &c., were sold in bulk and without any claim having been made. Some of the claims 
 
tvj irded (Hee Herial nuiubera 4, 10 and 20) would really Im> comical oo regardn the 
 uiiivemal applicabilitv of the iiKHlicincH if it were not too wrious a matt<?r for the ptxv 
 animaU to whom they are to l>e adiiiinii4t«>red. 
 
 The condition powdern coiiisiHt largely of linxeed niekl, oil cake meal, or bran in 
 which are diHtributed more or Icnn of other substances whitth are i<uppoHe<l to have purga- 
 tive, diuretic, hiematinic or tonic effectH. Thew powders are in fact the proprietary or 
 patent medicinoH supposed t<i lie gcMtd for farm animals. They vary very much as regards 
 composition. Some condition powders contain chlorides and nitrates ; in otiierssuch salts 
 lire absent ; a third class has sulphat4?s in addition to chlorides and nitraten. In a fourth 
 only the sulphat^ts are present in considerable quantity. In some, free sulph^ir appears 
 to be the characteristic constituent, and, in others, antimony. It does not tieem fair 
 to the farmers that reme<Jies differing so much in their ingredients should lie sold under 
 a common name, nor can it \h' advantageous to his animals to have medicines adminis- 
 tered without much reganl to the nature of the disease. The * regulators ' contain, as a 
 rule, iron salts, but otherwise are just as diverse in compasition as the condition powders. 
 Among the specific remedir . the worm powders exhibit similar diversity in composition, 
 and do not seem to contain the drugs usually prescribed by veterinarians as vermicides. 
 
 That there are remediec for specific diseases, use<l in veterinary practice, which are 
 sold as such is no doubt the case, but as regards the universal cattle medicine or ' cure 
 all,' it is very doubtful a.s to whether the farmer obtains value for his money. How to 
 regulate the traffic in these it is difficult to say. 
 
 As regards the 'adulteration ' of these cattle medicines it would seem to be difficult 
 to apply U) them the provisions of the Adulteration Act. It is true that the latter 
 defines the expression ' drug ' as including all medicines for internal or external use for 
 man or for cattle. The Act further provides that every drug shall be deemed to be 
 ' adulterated ' if its strength or purity falls below the professed standard under which it 
 is sold or offered or exposed for sale. But for cattle medicines there are no ' professed 
 standarrls,' and even if there were, it is enacted that these should not apply if ' the food 
 or druK is a proprietary medicine.' 
 
 I beg to recommend the publication of this report. 
 
 I have the honor to be, sir, 
 
 Your obedient servant,
