FIND TUBERCULOSIS IN cow
Some Animals, Apparently Healthy,
May Be Affected With Ailment-
Call in Veterinarian.

1t is difficult for anyone to detect
tuberculosis in COW by her appear
ance. Some cows, apparently healthy,
may be affected with this disease. An
ordinary layman can detect tuberculo-
sis in Il COW about us We'll as can a
professional man.
If COW Is in an advanced stage of
tuberculosis she will usually cough,
be poor in flesh, have dull express
sion in her eyes and appear sluggish.
The milk from such a COW should not
be used for either animals or human
beings.
The safest method Is to have a herd
tested for tuberculosis by capable
veterinarian. This test may be admin
istered by the owner or by any other
careful person, but it can readily be
seen that the results of such test
would not be official.

its low protein content, ii should not

to tighten up this grain the cob is
often ground with the kernel the re

Ground oats are slightly laxative

for example, In many Southern local
tiles artificial incubation for cow
peas is unnecessary and In sections of
the middle West bacteria which thrive
on the roots of clover and alfalfa are
already present.
Artificial incubation can be accom-
plished by spreading soil from a we'll
established field, where the particular
legume which is to be grown has been
successful, upon the new land to be
planted with that legume, and also by
the use of pure cultures of the prop
er bacteria. The United States de-
partment of agriculture is prepared to
supply enough of the pure culture to
inoculate one bushel of seed, and this
culture can be obtained in bottles
which contain complete directions for
use. Application blanks for these cul-
lures may be obtained from the depart
ment at Washington, d. G. Pure cul-
ture can also be obtained either free
or at small cost from the various ex-
pertinent stations.
Too much attention cannot be given
to the preparation Of the field for legu-
minous crops. In well-prepared seed
bed the young plants get the best start
and the necessary bacteria will thrive.
Sour soils hinder and often entirely
prevent the development of the bene-
fetal soil organisms. To remedy this
condition an application of lime is nee
essary. Any kind Of lime may be used
to advantage but usually finely ground
limestone is applied.
When field is known to contain the
bacteria suitable for certain legume
crop-for example, alfalfa-Shown by
the presence of numerous nodules upon
the roots of alfalfa plants growing
there, the soil is desirable for the in
oculation of other fields upon which
alfalfa is to be .sown for the first time.
Such soil, well sifted, can readily be
applied to the new field through the
fertilizer attachment on n drill. Two
hundred pounds or more of sifted field
soil will be sufficient for an acre and
Is best applied through the hoes.
Broadcasting the soil by hand Will re-
quire a larger quantity and is best
done in the early morning, late eve
ming, or on cloudy days, as the suns
rays are injurious to the bacteria in
the thin layer of inoculated soil thus
exposed to 1t. The field should be
Immediately narrowed after broadcast
ing the soil. Transferring field soil
from any considerable distance is ex-
pensive and subject to the danger of
introducing troublesome weeds, insects
and plant diseases.

To the situation in England where
