Michigan by men Of science in the
employment of Uncle Sam. This "nee-
die" is known as the michococcus ap-

federal authorities have imposed a
quarantine not only against the Mich.
igan herds but against the Michigan
hay. Not a pound of Michigan hay

fifty bales were disposed of at the

A reaction was due, but the farmers

way to the decline in price.
