TubercuIin Test Saves

Chief Salmon of the bureau OF AMI
NAL industry says there is today no
greater danger to the cattle and swine
industries than that which confronts
them in the form of tuberculosis,
disease already widespread and rap
idly extending. Without the use OF
tuberculin it would be impossible to
control this disease, and the farmer
and stock raiser would be at its mercy
With tuberculin it's control is not a
difficult matter, badly affected herds
may be converted into healthy herds
In few years, and without very Sc
rious loss or hardship. Tuberculln is,
therefore, a great boon to the farmer
one of the most beneficial scientific
discoveries of modern times.
Many cattle owners have been pre-
JUDGED against the tuberculin test by
Incorrect or greatly exaggerated state
ments as to damage caused to cattle
by the injection of tuberculin. Some
OF these statements have been based
upon attacks of illness in no way con-
nected with the tuberculin test.
Those who have had most expert
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1905-01-01

ence with tuberculin have, consequent
ly, failed to observe any injurious eff
fects following it's use upon healthy
cattle. With tuberculous cattle 1t pro
duces fever of short duration, and in
the great majority of cases all de-
rangement of the system which it
causes disappears within forty-eight
hours after the tuberculin is admin
istered There appear to have been
very few cases in which the disease
was aggravated, and greater number
in which it was benefited by the in
lection of tuberculin.
From the Investigations and obser-
vations that have been mentioned, 1t
safely may be concluded that the tu-
berculin test is a wonderfully accurate
method of determining if an animal
is affected with tuberculosis; further,
that by the use of tuberculin the ami
mails diseased with tuberculosis may
be detected and removed from the
herd, thereby eradicating the disease;
again, that tuberculin has no Injurious
effects upon healthy cattle.

olin will differ from another years
oIin even when the sheep are of
tbe same character and owned by
The same flockmaster. Seasons will
ont quite a factor in the grade of
tbe WOOL This is largely due to
color of feeces and to shrinkage. In
the face of these offers it is safe to
cav that wool will not decline much,
for the demand for wool in the face
of these conditions would indicate
that prices will remain firm.
In Idaho last years. woods were
heavy; this year they will be light
saws the Shepherds Bulletin, so
much so that a number of Idaho
clips as compared with those of last
wear are hardly recognizable. The
woo,s are better grown, however,
and manufacturers have taken them
eagerly. Last year Montana woods
we're very heavy and in some por-
lions were shorter than usual, but
this year they are much lighter and
shrink less, and the general quality
is much better.
Many things go to cause shrink
age in wool that are not generally
taken into account. Many feel that
shrinkage is almost wholly due to
yolk and grease and that the manage
ment of sheep will cause greater or
less quantities of these substances to
shrink away when the wool is
secured. There are many things that
can cause shrinkage in woods, such
as the presence OF grease, dirt, sand,
burs, straw, chaff, oats and hay seed.
A clip may contain a great deal of
grease and but very little sand or
other foreign substance and yet
shrink a great deal. The buyer al
WAYS takes into consideration the
percentage OF cleansed wool when he
buys and all clips are sold on that
basis.
More attention will be paid to wool
hereafter than heretofore. Clips will
be taken off carefully, fleeces will be
freed from all substances that will
not contribute to their value in the
market and sales will be made by
leading the buyer to make a close
inspection of the product. An hon
est product is never kept from the in
spection of the buyer.
The greasiest woods come from
New YORK and Vermont where the
sheep are bred to high point, where
the finer the fibre the more of them
and the more fibers the more ex-
udation of grease in woods grown
where there is alkali in the soil,
which is the case in some parts of
the west.
Brashy woods are the opposite of
greasy woods and may be due to the
presence of alkali or improper treat
ment of the flock Woods grown in
Texas are not so brashy as those
grown in Arizona, Colorado or New
Mexico. The twelve months clip OF
Texas are more greasy than the six
months clip, as shearing is some
times performed twice annually
there.

DRAWBACK RULES
WORK SMOOTHLY
Treasury People Say Exporting
Millers and Government Of :
ficials Are Pleased.
BY w. w. Jermane.

Washington, April 1-Thru the treas
Try department it is learned that the
-four drawback regulations are work.
ing with entire satisfaction both to
the government and the exporting mill
ers. Several abstracts of manufacture
have been sent to the custom house at
New York, and their liquidation shows
a favorable advancement in favor Of
the drawback plan as against manu-
featuring -four in bond, under what is
known as the manufacturing warehouse
law. There have also been sent to the
New York custom house final entries
on which the actual drawback will be
paid. The transactions are all in the
name of the Pillsbury Washburn COM
pany of Minneapolis.
y The New York custom house will be
the clearing house for nearly all -four
manufactured for export in the. United
States, as the regulations require that
the abstracts shall be liquidated there
and extracts of such abstracts sent to
the ports whence the -four has been
actually exported.
HTreasury officials say Collector Stran
Ahan and Deputy Collector Cryon, who
Gre in charge Of the drawback depart
Snent, are extending every facility tC
expedite the liquidation of manufac
turers' abstracts and final drawback
entries. In fact, the machinery il
working SO smoothly that one might
think this special line of business haG
been in operation several years.

CONTROVERSY IMPORTANT
Rabbi Declares T1m4 Has Come t
Think How Money Is Acquired.

Portland, Ore, April DIR. Stephen
s. Wise, a prominent rabbi, in SER
mon on the action of the prudential
committee Of the American Board Of
Foreign Missions in regard to the gift
of John D. Rockefeller and the protest
Of Dr.. Washington GLADDEN., said:
Perhaps none of YOU will agree with me
when say that there has nothing hap
pened of more Importance to the ethical
welfare Of the nation than the act Of DR..
GLADDEN. and the prudential committee.
It seems to me that there is nothing
more helpful as tonic than what Is hap
pening now. Whether Rockefeller has his
gift accepted or not, the effect will still
be good.
Altho 1t has been the universal and i'm
memorial custom for benevolent and edu-
cational institutions to receive money
without any thought Of its origin, it seems
to me that the time has come when this
custom must be changed.
But is it fair to single out Mr.. Rookie
Teller as a target? Why this sudden rise
Of righteousness? Washington GLADDEN.
says the money Is not his to give. But
GLADDEN. says we can use the money to dc
good. How can you match the little good
it might do In far away India with the
lowering Of the. ethical standards Of the
American people? It is all right to boy
colt Mr.. Rockefeller and refuse his gifts
but we must do it tomorrow and the day
after.

STANDARD ATTACK
Continued from First Page.

by this means that this enormous power
was created.
II am not a lawyer but should think it
now asserting that the money now under
common law, such an iniquity as this
might have been punished. Railways,
which are chartered under public law,
must be required to render to all the peo-
pie an equal service. If such use of them
as was made by the Standard Oil COM
pany could not be punished, our legal ma
chinery would be very defective.
AS to the Rebate.
''The denial that rebates have been ex-
torted since the interstate commerce law
was passed is not credible. I know from
statements made to myself by parties i'm
plicated that such rebates have been ex-
acted by other corporations. I doubt if
the Standard Oh company is more virtu-
Gus than the rest. But it is true that ii
has now gained power in the classified
ton and control Of rates which makes ii
unnecessary to use the system Of re-
bates.
"some Of the apologists of the trust are
now asserting that he money now under
discussion has been legally acquired Lee
gally, says a New York paper there is nc
question that the money is Mr.. Rookie

PRINTING INQUIRY
STORIES ABSURD
Investigation of Congressional Elk
travagances Does Not In
volve ,Heatwole.
BY W. w. .Jermane.

/. Washington, April Those who are
familiar with. congressional printing
here brand as absurd the stories that
the joint committee on printing is to in
vestigate the actions of former Con-
gresham Heatwole while chairman of
the house committee on printing. 1t
has been known here for years that con-
a lot of useless printing, as is attested
by the crowded condition Of the docu-
ment-rooms of both houses.
There are senators who have not had
a call for single copy Of hundreds
of documents which cost the govern
ment large sums to compile and print,
and for the destruction of which there
is no authority in law, so they are occu-
plying valuable space at the cap1toi. In
documents have been printed, that is,
there has not been sufficient demand to
exhaust the quota authorized by law.
And other extravagances have cTept
into congressional printing, which that
body has now determined to check.
With view to discovering some
means of correcting these abuses, con.
gress at the last session authorized the
Joint house and senate committee, on
nrinting to make an investigation dur
ing this recess and report at the next
session.
Mr.. Heatwole, when chairman of the
printing committee, had a full knowl
edge Of these extravagances anc
abuses, all of which had the sanction
of both branches Of congress, and fol
which no responsibility attached to the
Niinnesotan, and he tried to bring about
a reform, but could make no headway
lhecause other members of congress
i were not aroused to it. Mr.. Heat
wole's efforts will bear fruit in re
forms to be suggested by the commit
