Turkey Industry
Mammoth One
Estimated Production In District Is
2.1s Tons, or $4,000 In Value
to Farmers.

The turkey industry in Crowley
county is growing to mammoth pro-
portions and with the good prices that
prevail on the one hand and the need
OF keeping turkeys, as advocated by
Joe Wallace. for Kidding the farms OF
grasshoppers. the industry will con-
tinue to grow.
Gallavan Bros. who last year ship
ped over 500 turkeys for the Thanks
giving market and 100 for the
Christmas markets. state that there
are more turkeys in the county this
year than ever before. In various
ways the New Era has CLEANED infor-
nation in order to get n line on the
approximate number of turkeys there
might be in this county, and trading
territory and the estimate is placed
at $3.50. This number of turkeys at
an average weight OF IA pounds each.
would place the total weight at 49,
500 pounds or 22A tons. At the
present prevailing price of IA cents
per pound the sale OF these turkeys
means a revenue to the growers OF
s6,37O.
Recently Joe Wallace, county COM
missioner, whose farm is north Of
Sugar City, produced figures to prove
that it was very profitable sideline
and one which every farmer should
undertake because 1t would not only
tirely do away with the grasshoppers
on farm and permit the other crops
to produce as they should

telling about soldier life. as follows:
We are getting fixed up at last and
have moved into the camp vacated
by the 1st Ill. Cav. We have wood
floors and a framework for our tent.

up as nice as is possible. The troops
are all comfortable and we have good
cook shacks and mess hall, all screen

much as they did in Colorado. Every

caught sleeping without it.
1t has been wet and muddy here for
about four months and every morning
we are given a detail from the troops
and we go around and put oil on all
the open water holes. This is to keep
the mosquitoes from developing.
Brownsville is some town. 1t has
a population of about 5000 people,
mostly Mexicans. All of the business
is owned by Mexicans. There are
about 5000 soldiers around here, so
all one can see here are soldiers and
Mexicans. A white woman is a
novelty.
About advancement: All the chanc-
es for advancement here don't amount
to a row of beans. The very best l
could get would be sergeant at s36
per month and it would take a couple
of years to get that. The Illinois
bunch had millionaires and bank
presidents as privates.
They have a nice Y. NJ. C. A. build

SAYS "PASTEURIZE MILK
AND LESSEN TUBERCULOSIS

The often disputed question of wheth-
er milk from tuberculous cows is made
safe for use as human food by proper
pasteurization has been settled in the
affirmative by experiments recently
concluded by Dr. Jacob Traum, assist
ant professor of veterinary science in
the University of California, and DR..
u. II. Hart, city veterinarian of Los
Angeles. Their experimental proof
that milk pasteurization really works
i declared by the university espe-
ciaily opportune because with Octo-
Der l, 1916, a new state law will 90
into effect which will forbid the sale
IL California Of milk from any other
tran tuberculin tested herds unless
81 ch milk has been pasteurized by
heating it uniformly for % minutes at
temperature CT 140 to 145 degrees
Fahrenheit.
The flaw in previous experiments
was that they had not dealt with milk
from tuberculous cows pasteurized un-
der ordinary commercial conditions.
A thoroughly practical test was re-
solved upon by Professor Traum and
DIR. Hart. They found dairy in Los
Angeles which had separated all its
cattle into two herds, one of the
Imperial Valley press., 1916-09-07

healthy animals and the other of the
cows which had been found to have
tuberculosis. The milk from the lat
ter herd of four hundred cows, every
single one Of which was tuberculous,
was being carefully pasteurized in
commercial creamery in Los Angeles
and then sold.
Taking advantage of this unique op-
portunity for conclusive test, the two
scientists took samples Of the raw
milk after it had been pasteurized un-
der COMMERCIAL conditions, in battery
oc three large watts with a capacity of
500 gallons each. Thus it was possible
70 follow the same batch of milk from
the raw through the clarified to the
final pasteurized state.
Twenty-four samples of raw milk
taken at intervals during a period of
six months were used to inocu.ate
guinea pigs. In every instance except
one these "a samples of raw mix pro-
duced tuberculosis in the guinea pigs.
Fourteen samples of this milk, clari-
fled but not yet pasteurized, were test
ed and these produced tuberculosis in
all but three guinea pigs inoculated.
Twenty-three samples Of this same
milk, taken, however, after pasteuriza-
tion on large scale under ordinary
commercial conditions, when used to
inoculate guinea pigs failed to produce
tuberculosis or to cause death in sin
Gle instance.
These notable experiments show
.that great service is going to be rem
dered to the good cause of fighting tu-
berculosis. which now causes more
tran third of the deaths in Califor-
MIA and five times as many deaths as
al the epidemic diseases put together,
by putting into effect in October of
the beneficent law requiring all market
milk from cows which have not passed
the test for tuberculosis TO be pas
teurized before this milk can be sold
to be fed to unsuspecting human be-
ings or used for making butter-for
tvtter made from milk not pasteurized
threatens the same sort of danger of
carrying tuberculosis as does unpas-
teurized ice cream or cream or milk
from tuberculous cows if used without
pssteurization.
The two investigators lay great em-
plasis on their warning that unless
posteurization is properly done and
carefully supervised, its value will be
impaired and the public given false
sense of security.

V7iLLA AGAIN ACTIVE.

The reports to be we'll verified that Villa is
again gaining power and is renewing his activity just as
the joint commission is beginning sessions with view to
finding basis for friendly relationship between the
United States and Mexico. He evidently wishes to dem
onsrae that Carranza cannot maintain peace in Mexico
The problem he presents is admittedly one that it is
very difficult to solve and both the and civil depart
ments of the two nations apparently much concerned
over the outcome.

The demands in this controversy have not been
presented in judgment, for the purpose Of fixing
definite daily period of labor reduction in the
existing hours Of labor change in methods of opera
ton but for the real purpose of accomplishing an
increase in wages of approximately One Hundred
Million Dollars per annum, or IS per cent. for the
in railroad freight train and yard service represented
by the labor organizations in this matter.
After careful examination of the facts and patient
and continuous consultation with the Conference
Committee of Managers, and among ourselves, we
have reached clear understanding of the magnitude
of the questions and of the serious consequences to
the railroads and to the public involved in the decision
of them.

The widespread effect upon the industries of the
country as whole is beyond measure or appraise-

widespread public the gravity of the
situation and the consequences of surrender by the
railroads in this emergency.
In like manner we are deeply impressed with the
of responsibility to maintain and keep open
the arteries of transportation, which carry the life
blood of the commerce of the country, and OF the
consequences that will flow from even temporary
interruption of service over the railroads. but the
issues presented have been raised above and beyond
the social and monetary questions involved, and
the responsibility for the consequences that may
arise will rest upon those that provoke it.

Trustees for the Public

As trustees for the public served by lines and
for the great of the less powerful employees not
less than So per cent of the whole numbe interested
in the railroad wage fund-as trustees also for the
millions of people that have invesedther savings and
capital in the bonds and stock of these properties,
and who through the saving banks trust companies
and insurance companies vitality interested to the
extent of millions of dollars, in the integrity and
sovency of the railroads of the country cannot in
conscience surrender without hearing, the principle
involved undertake to transfer the enormous cost
that will result to the transportation OF the commerce
Of the country.
The eight-hour day without punitive overtime
involves an annual increase, approximately, IN the
aggregate of Sixty Millions of Dollars and an increase
of more than 20 per cent. in the pay of the men,
already the most highly paid in the transportation
service.
The ultimate cost to the railroads OF an admission
in this manner of the principle under contention
cannot now be estimated; the effect upon the eft-
ciencv of the transportation of the country now

Public Investigation Urged

The questions involved are in otr respectful judg-
ment, eminently suitable for the calm investigation
and decision by the public through the agency of fair
arbitration and cannot be disposed Of to the public
satisfaction, in any other manner
The decision of Commission or Board of Arbi-
traton having the public confidence, will be accepted
by the public and the social and financial rearrange-
ments made necessary thereby will be undertaken by
manner.
The railroads of the country cannot under present
conditions assume this enormous increase in their
expenses. If imposed upon them it would involve
many in early financial embarrassment and bank
ruptcy and imperil the power of all to maintain
their credit and the integrity of their securities
The immediate increase in COST followed by other
increases that would be inevitable, would substan-
TALLY appropriate the present purchasing power of
the railroads and disable them from expanding and
improving their facilities and equipment, to keep
abreast of the demands of the country for efficient
transportation service.
