Report of Dairy Inspection For
the City of Newport.
Fayetteville, Ark,
july 9. 1919

Inc price agreed upon was one
dollar per head for each animal
tested by the simultaneous Or
thermal tuberculine test and all
the expenses of the trip was 10
be paid by the City of Newport
Six herds of cattle were testeG,
which represented seven owners
namely, r. L. Robinson IL head,
S. w. Taggart II head, M. w.
Burkett Z head, T. O. Oliver 5
head, J. D. Neal IL head, w. NJ.
Kidd Z head and w. NJ. Beard 20
head, making a total Of SO head
tested. There were no reacting
animals in this number tested.
A number of registered and good
grade animals in this number
had previously been tested in
compliance with our state law
which requires that cattle for
dairy and breeding purposes
be tested before movement in
terstate into the state of Arkan-
sas.
A general survey OF the
grounds, buildings, dairy equip
ment, methods of milking and
handling of the milk at milking
time were carefully noted. the
following recommendations are
made.
l. All cattle furnishing milk
to the city should be annually
tested with tuberculine and in
case reactor is found a test in
that herd should be applied as
often as the city veterinary In
spector deems it necessary
(three or four times yearly,
such reacting animals should be
killed in compliance with our
state law. A post morten1 should
be held upon all carcases Of such
animals killd, this should be
done by the city inspector aiideeI i
by some Federal Veterinarian
and before such animal or any
part thereof is posted as edible
product of same should meet the
requirements Of the Federal
meat inspection regulations.
2. All overhead feed bins and
hay lofts should be made of
tongue and grooved lumber to
prevent dust falling into stalls
where cattle are MIXED. No dali
ry barn in the city of Newport
inspected meets with this recon-
mendation.
3. Care of milk at time of
Only one dairyman,
Mr.. M. w. Burkett had a screen
ed retaining room for the COM
mon milk can to which milk was
strained into when MIXED from
the cows. All other dairymeD
exposed the milk to the retain
ing milk to the flies and such
methods is dangerous as al
know, since a number OF open
family privies are in the near
vicinity of the diaries.
4. The herdren and mixers
should be required to wear white
suits when milking and same
should be Numbered three or
four times a week. Such suits
are cheap and the dairyman
should see that their mixers
are supplied with such suits. IN
a number of the diaries inspect
ed the milking was done by ne
gro boys, who were not only half
clad but were also dirty and I'LL
thy. The udder of the cow
should be washed well with a
clean, moist cloth before the
work of milking is undertaken
and in most cases in Newport
this is being done.
5. A city ordinance should oe
passed if not now enforce 70

To Reform Baling Methods.

Special TO independent.
The Hague, July l6.-A SUIT
committee of the American
Commission on Agricultural
Cooperation represented the
cotton growing interests o1 the
Southern states at the biennial
convention Of the International
Federation Of Master Cotton
Splnners and Manufacturers As
ISOLATION, which opened here
last week. The Americans &C.
voted their attention to the CUES
ton OF reforming the methods OF
cotton baling, handling. and mar
keting, and placed before me
convention recommendations
which, if adopted, would save
the American cotton growers
SIS, 100000 q year. according
to their estimates, and result in
material saving TO spinners Of
American cotton.
Col. Harvie Jordan of Georgia.
president Of the Southern Cot
ton Growers Association, acted
as chairman of the delegation
from the American Commission.
and invited three hundred rep
resentatives of foreign cotton
manufacturing interests 10 at
tend a conference in Mobile. Al

ufacturers, growers and ginners,
at the time of the fifth annual
convention Of the Southern Com
mercial Congress in that city
next October. The invitation
was extended in the name of the
Southern Commercial Congress,
The National Cotton Manufac-
turer's Association, the Ameri-
can Cotton Manufacturers AS
ISOLATION, the Southern Cotton
Association, the Farmers Union
and the states of Georgia and Al
ALBANIA. Other members of the
American delegation were Col.

Of Markets ard Rural Economics
Of the Mississippi Agricultural
College; Edward Ware Barrett.
of Alabama, and Robert /. and
E. F. Woodside of South Caro-
lima.
1t is estimated America cotton
growers lose about SIS on every
bale of cotton they sell through
bad methods Of baling and mar
keting. On fifteen million bale
crop this means $75, 100000. AT
the convention at the The Hague
representatives from England,
Russia, Japan, Germany, France,
Austria, Italy, Spain, Portugal,
Belgium, Switzerland, Sweden,
and Holland were present and
all of these countries are direct
ly concerned with reformation
of the American system OF hand
ling cotton. The American cot
ton crop represents nearly q
billion dollars c year and $780,
100000 Of the export trade OF
the United States.
A special effort has been made
by the American Commission
during it's investigation in Eu-
rope, to discover some possible
application of the agricultural
credit systems of the Old World
to better the financial position
Iof American cotton growers.
The handling of the enormous
cotton crop Of the Southern
states is one of the most diff
cult problems to solve in Amer
lean agriculture. 1t sometimes
happens that an unusually large
cotton crop will sell for less mon
ey than small crop. Lack OF
