Dipping Scabby Cattle Order for Mange Infested Districts

A 1903 Colorado order requires all cattle in mange infected districts to be dipped between October 16 and November 15, or October through December 15 in certain counties. If any animal is infected, the whole herd is dipped, with separate confinement for badly affected animals. Dipping costs may be billed to the owner and become a lien if unpaid. Quarantines restrict cattle movement until dipping. Pens and corrals must be disinfected, and inspectors collect fees per head. The notice requests cooperation from stockmen to eradicate mange.
