DAIRY FACTS WAGE WAR ON TUBERCULOSIS E**id*i Organized Forces Thera Are Thousand* of Accredited Veterinarians Helping. (Prepared Sy the United Statea Department vs Afrtcultur* ) Tuberculosis of live stock Is being attacked on all skies. In addition to the large force of federal, state and county eeterlnariuns engaged In the nationwide campaign for eradicating this disease, there are thousands of accredited veterinarians assisting with, the work. Record* of the bureau of animal Industry. United States Department of Agriculture, show that on March 1. 1923. there were 5.129 accredited veterinarian* In the United States. As accredited herds are established the various state* turn them over to accredited veterinarians, who test them annually at the expense of the owner. This permits county, state anil federal vetterlnarians to devote all their time to I herds that have not been accredited The federal government keeps In close touch with the accredited veterinarians and furnishes them every fewmonths with information regarding the disease and any unusual conditions that may be encountered in the herds under sujiervision. The tuberculosis-free accredited herd list is increasing very rapidly. The report of the bureau of animal Industryjust published shows that on March 1. 1923. there were 24,132 fully accredited i herds. 260.034 once-tested free herds. : and 332.887 herds under supervision. MUDDY BARN LOT IS COSTLY Additional Work Heaped on Dairyman Every Way He Turns—Clean Stable Pays Best. A poorly drained barnyard costs the dairyman more money than he Imagines. In some cases, no doubt. It costs ■ Idm more than the laying of the necessary tile through which to keep It dry It means additional work for him pretty nearly every way he turns — dirty cows, dirty stables and an extra physical effort on his own [nirt In the matter of going about his chores with mud-caked boots. If lie sells his milk • locally from house to house, he prob , ably loses many a customer who associate* thoughts of the general appear ance of the barn and its surroundings with the milk which Is being delivered to his home. Clean environment in the case of a dairy barn offers a telling argument, in an advertising way, for the milk produced amid these surrounding*. COW TESTING IS IMPORTANT Record Showing High Production of Animal Greatly Increases Price of Bull Calf. A farmer sold a male calf for $35. Later its dam was tested for advanced registry. When the yearly record was completed It was found that the cowproduced over 22.000 pounds of milk and 681 pounds of butteb. Her next bull calf was sold for S3OO. This indicates in a edberete way something of the value of testing dairy cows. Production <7 Cows. Average production of dairy cows in the United States Is 3,412 pounds of milk per cow per year. In Holland it Is 7,585 pounds; Switzerland, 6,950 pounds, and Denmark, 5,666 pounds. DAIRY NOTES Nobody cries when a scrub bull dies. . • • Don’t keep cows. Make cows keep you. • • • Good cream is clean cream, kept cook Tuberculosis Is a community prob- , lem. • • • Fall calving usually gives best results. • • * The dairy cow, like a human being, enjoys sunshine. • • • The most successful dairymen raise most of their cows. • • * Milk from infected cows or from a creamery should be pasteurized before it Is fed. • • • Milk substitutes are not equal to milk, but give fair results when used with care. * • • Creameries prefer the rich cream, as they can use It more easily and efficiently. • • • All calves should be fed regularly; very young calves should be fed three times a day. • • » The dairyman who produces and sells a low grade of cream is nipping profits in the bud. » • • Young dairy stock should have all the hay they will eat, and grain In proportion to weight. • • • “Keep the milk cool and the utensils dean." This applies as well in winter as In summer.

. MONROE NEWS I On Thursday one of our business men dosed his doors to attend the 1 Firemen's convention held at Decatur. • This is somefhlng unusual a* his place of business is open 365 days in the year, which ha* been the rule. On arriving home he found a sign tacked up reading as follows: "BankI nipt, John Johnson, Receiver,” nnd a piece of black crepe adorned by a beauty rose was hung on the door, it is wonderful how a person running 365 days a year in business that some one will so miss him'to surmise that the party in question is either bankrupt or dead. However, the key was found, which had not been used on a similar occasion for io! these many years. Mr. and Mrs. Jake Shirk and Mr. and Mrs. John Nowlon, of Tipton county, are here this week, being called to the bedside of Mr. R. L. Shirk who recently suffered a stroke of paralysis.

Shirk remains about the same at this time; Not much change can be noticed, since he was stricken with paralysis. The excessive heat is affecting many of our people in this neigborhood.
