IOWA SWINE GROWERS MEET
Expert Says Most tuberculosis Can
Be Traced to Infected Milk.

Des Moines, June 16.-That Iowa
swine growers should take immediate
steps to prevent the spread of tuber-
culosis among their hogs was asserted
by DR.. Henry j. Washburn, assistant
chief Of the government bureau of an
imal industry, in an address to MEM
bers of the Iowa Swine Breeders AS
ISOLATION here.
DR.. Washburn pointed out that Iowa
produces more than one-seventh of the
hogs raised in the United States and
that 2 per cent Of them are affected
with tuberculosis. The feeding Of milk
from tubercular cows is the cause Of
most of the tuberculosis among hogs,
he said. DR.. Washburn urged special
care in this regard.
Other talks on subjects pertaining
to the growing of swine were made by

four weeks. and he will have no time
to lose if he reaches Fort Yukon by the

stoekers and Feeders.

Country buying enthusiasm fails to
warm up materially. Even tho there is
a great area Of pasturage which is
not being used by holders, they are
reluctant to stock up while the prices
remain on present levels, which are
considered by many country feeders
as too high to admit of profitable oper-
ations. The country has been hanging
back in the feeding cattle trade for
several weeks in hopes that the prices
would start downward, but while the
prospective buyers have failed to come
to the front the owners of thin stuff
have shown the same disposition, with
the result that the receipts have Of
late been smallest in long time.
| Any very sharp break in the prices
would likely bring about a big country
demand. The price trend has been
downward for the past two weeks but
still has not dropped swiftly enough to
create renewed buying activity. Few
steers sell above s5.1B and bulk Of the
mixed feeders made $440@4.s5, with
