TREAT CALVES TWICE YEARLY
Don't Wait Until Animals Commence

Calves should be vaccinated for
blackleg twice q year, making it q
regular chore, and do not wait until
they begin to die before getting ready.
The period Of ordinary susceptibility
ranges from three months to two and
One-half years. Most of the vaccine
on the market Is reliable and the I'M
satisfactory results are usually due
to carelessness on the part of the
farmer in not following directions in
using 1t.
The agricultural college distributes
the government blackleg vaccine free
to farmers Of Colorado. Orders for
vaccine will not be filed promptly.

PUBLISHERS FIGHT
ADDITIONAL TAXES

Washington May 15.-Public
hearings on the war revenue bill be-
fore the Senate Finance Committee
were concluded to-day.
Today's sessions were devoted
largely to further hearing of protests
of newspaper and periodical pub
fishers against the proposed increases
i'm second-class mail rates and the tax
on print paper. A delegation of
Chicago and New York business men
told the committee the amount pro-
posed to be raised by the revenue bill
was excessive, and that it would i'm
pose too great burden upon this
generation.
Many publishers produced records
of their books before the committee
to show they were not in financial
condition to meet the proposed taxa
tion, and declared that if the measure
was allowed to stand, many publica-
lions would have to suspend.
Chairman Simmons did not indi-
cate when the committee will report,
but it probably will be ready shortly
after the House passes the bill the
last of this week.
Frank p. Glass. chairman of the
Paper Committee of the American
Newspaper Publishers Association,
and George McAneny of the New
York Times, were recalled when the
committee took up the section levy
ing ten per cent tax on print paper.
