Triumph of Sheep Men in Idaho Court Ruling
In Boise the district court judge ruled the state veterinarian law unconstitutional, a decision sustained by the state supreme court. The ruling would abolish the live flock sanitary board and the office of state veterinarian, but revive the old state sheep inspection act with extended duties for the state inspector to the new vet. The dispute began over an order requiring dipping sheep south of the Salmon River before driving from summer ranges, a move resisted by sheepmen in Washington and Canyon counties claiming their flocks were disease free and the order lacked authority.
