RLACKLEG IN CALVES
NOW MORE VIRULENT
Vaccination Will Prevent Disease
in Most Cases, but Not ALL
Serum on Market.

By GEORGE H. GLOVER. Colorado Ag-
ricultural College, Fort Collins, Colo.)
Blackleg in calves seems to have
become more virulent of late. Vac
cination will, prevent the disease in
most cases but not all. Another diff
Guilty lies in the fact that after adj
ministering the vaccine, calves are
not protected against the disease for
a period of about two weeks, and in
the meantime, if the herd is infected,
many of them may die. There is now
a blackleg serum on the market which
will give immediate protection and
combined with the virus will give
lasting immunity. The serum also has
curative value if given early in the
course of the disease.
The Kansas Agricultural college
makes the statement that ga highly
potent blackleg serum can be pro-
duced from the horse" The claim is
also made that the filtered fluid taken
from the diseased tissue of the
shoulder has great immunizing prop
critics
This marks a great advance in the
control of blackleg but does not in
the least detract from the Importance
Of absolutely destroying the carcass Of
every animal that dies from blackleg
and adopting all other possible pre-
ventive measures.

LENGTH OF WIRELESS WAVE
Naturally, 1t Is Four Times That OF
the Aerial, But This Does Not
Always Hold Good.

In articles of wireless telegraphy
such expressions as 200-meter wave
lengths, 600-meter wave-lengths, 15,-
O00meter wave-lengths are constantly
used. In reply to a correspondent who
asks how the length of the waves Is
measured the Scientific American gives
the following simple explanation:
''The length of an electric wave is
determined by wave-meter. The nat
ural wave-length of an aerial is four
times its linear length, just as the
wave-length Of note of closed or
gan pipe is four times the length of the
pipe, and the wave-length of the note
of a tuning fork is four times the
length of the box which is resonant
with the note. However, other con-
siderations make it difficult to measure
the wave-length by rule, and the
wave-meter gives a more correct re-
suit than can be found by measuring
the length of the wire"
