Banishinq Animal Diseases

Victory over most of the destruc-
tive diseases of animals is in sight,
and in a%number of cases eradica-
ton is nearly complete. This state
ment is made in the annual report of
the Chief of. the Bureau of Animal
Industry, United States Department
Of Agriculture.
Cattle scabies, which in 1906 was
prevalent in nearly one-half of the
United States, now appears only as
outbreaks in limited areas. These
outbreaks are being suppressed.
Eradication of sheep scabies, which
in 1906 existed in more than one
half, of the land area of this coun-
try, IS now about nine-tenths COM
p1ete.
The cattle tick, which causes
splenetic fever among cattle, and
which has, been the greatest OBJ
stacle to the development of the live
stock industry in the South, has
had its domain reduced. from more
than 100000 square miles in 1906
to 219,581 square miles on Decem-
Der I. 1919. Progress has been con
tinuous year after year, and the tick
should be extinct in this country
in 1924.
Eradication of animal tubercu-
losis has progressed as fast as the
work could be handled by the vet
erinarian force employed; in fact,
there has been waiting list of
herds to be tested. Animal TB prob
ably will not be banished from, the
United States In, the life of this gen.
Grafton. but it has been proved that
the disease can be eradicated from
small areas, and there is little doubt
that eventually it will disappear from
this country.
Meanwhile the Bureau Of Animal
Industry continues its vigilance to
prevent the introduction from for
eign countries of such dangerous
animal ,scourges as foot-and-mouth
disease, surra,, rinder-pest,, and other
rnaladies slightly known or unknown
to the farmers Of the United States.

If this damper is properly con-

SMILE GOOD BUSINESS ASSET
No Doubt That Cheerfulness is OF
Great Advantage in Strenuous
Battle of Life.

When 1t is not palpable insincer-
ity, theatric artificiality. turned on
to create fieeting impression OF
geniality that is not there, smile is
an asset of business, lubricant IN
social lfe the outward index OF
welcome mood and happy mind. IL
cheers the air, relieves the tension,
proclaims cheerful and serene PM
losophy. Those who smile most WORK
best.
The man whose brow Is cloud
hung whose mind is fOg-bound,
whose. pessimism sees no rainboWs
and lives beyond the pale Of hope
and buoyant expectancy, is a, poor
fellOw-workman and an unpopular
employer. In the strife for higher
wages let it be seen and known that
men work for more than material re-
wards. They toll faster and harder
for one they like; and the employer
who wins devotion and holds men
can see a joke and is lover Of clean
fun, and wears in his face the sign
of high good humor.
The man who keeps on smiling
not with the insane and constant grin
that never wears off, but with the
habitual expression of good nature
within-has won victories. He has
had his share Of trials and tempta-
lions. Life has not laid a lighter
hand on him than on his neighbor. He
enjoyed no special privilege and fate
did not accord him preferential treat
.ment. But the expression Of his face
shows that he has come through
tribulation and not yielded to bit
terness. A light that shines there is
the reflection of the refiner's ire Ii
that smile were the sign of m1rth'
full irrefectiveness it would not mean
so much. The meaning Of it is that
he who wears the look has toiled ano
suffered, known the anxieties, been
foiled and frustrated, drunk the SUP
and eaten the bread of sorrow-ano
still he holds his head on high, ano
the enthusiasm is unquestioned. This
attitude of cheerfulness resolutely
maintained bespeaks in him VINO
keeps it an essential greatness. The
man who smiles has not lost hope anc
he still keeps faith with his ideals
You cannot take from him the for
tune that he carries in that brave
bright aspect which invigorates al
soon as it Is seen.-Philadelphl
Ledger.

Tuberculosis in Cattle.

The bureau of animal industry OF
the department of agriculture reports
that tuberculosis in cattle was respon-
sible for the condemnation OF more
cattle, slaughtered under federal meat
inspection last year, than all other dis
eases combined. Information from the
bureau shows that 59,547 carcasses OF
cattle were condemned on post-mortem
inspection and of that number 37'ooo
were the result of tuberculosis. In ad-
dition 1852 parts of cattle carcasses
we're condemned for the same cause.
The bureau points out that tubercu-
Iosis in cattle and hog cholera In
swine are the two most serious con-
tagious diseases affecting meat anil
mails, and there is evidence that
heavy loss occurs on farms in addition

Increase Recommended Postal Service.
hington.-Increased salaries for
postal employees, amounting to approx
mately $33,OO0,0O0 for the first year,
effective July 1, were recommended IN

100000 for the third and fourth years.
Increase of from $3.50 to $3.50 annually
for postal clerks and letter carriers,
with $500 for supervisory officers, were
recommended No increases for first
class PostmasterS receiving more than
$4,000 a year were proposed, however.
For rural delivery carriers the COM
mission recommended $1,000 for a
twenty-four mile route, and an addl-
tional $50 for each mile in excess OF
that distance. Motor route carriers
covering 80 miles or more would re-
ceive not more than $4,000. The pay
of village delivery carriers would be
from 81 900 to $1,200 Should the rec
concentrations of the commission,
based on hearings conducted in vari-
Gus parts of the country, be adopted,
