Under directions from Governor Lake this departments will give prefer ance, in the herds tubercuin tests, to herds of cattle producing milk for the markets James NJ.

 This is a commendable policy" Com missioner Whittlesey continued "as it involves a question Of public health The tubercuolsis eradication policy was pushed before the legislature by public health officials and organizations It is essential that cattle furnishing market milk be treated frs in order that the health of the babies may be safeguard ed.
 Commissioner Whittlesey said that while he was away at the convention of the American Veterinary Medical Asso- citation numerous applications were re- ceived from farmers all over the state wishing to have the department proceed to test their cattle Commissioner 1 missioner Whttlesey pointed out that while it was in the interests of the live stock industry to have pure bred cattle the interests of public health demanded that market milk producing cattle be at- tneded to first.

APPLY GOLDEN RULE TO
 LABOR CAPITOL PROBLEMS

The Get Together" meeting at the '. M. C. A. Sunday afternoon was well attended. After the singing of several popular hymns and the reading of the scripture lesson from Deuteronomy 2Sth chapter, prayer was offered.
 Secretary Edwin Hill led the meeting ln the discussion of the topic Labor and Capital. Among the points brought out were the following: that the duty ot the employed is to remember that a man is not machine and the opin- ion was expressed that the vast ma Jority of employers recognize this. That an employe is human and as rule responds to kindness, although il oc- casionally seems necessary to use strong methods in order to get a man to perform his duty. That the employ CT should encourage the employe to initiate something and that the employ CT must recognize that the most inn portant factor of industry is the hu- man factor.
 Under the head of the duty of la Dor the following points were empha- slzed: that the employe must rernen- Der that capital takes big risks, tha; large amounts of money are tied UT Tn factories, that a man who works with his brain is just as much a la. poflng man as he who works witt his hands and that brain work is mucf more wearing than muscle work Ina the owner, boss or foreman has mucl more to worry him than does the aver age employe. That the working man il America is much better off than tn, working man of any other nation. Tha to loaf on the job is morally speakin,
 just as bad as stealing, for the em 1 pioye Is stealing time. The happies ! man is not necessarily the rich man l To the question how can both side be made to see the point? it was stat
 ed that each must get the view of tn
 other and this can only be done b,
 the application of the Golden Rule i This and this alone can solve the pro blems of capital and labor. This rul
 lived out will solve any and all pro
 blems of the individual and of the na ! ton.
 Following the meeting there was
 social hour and light refreshment l were served.
