add. This point is brought out clear
ly in a two-cOl0red poster published
by the department, on which is shown
two herds of dairy cattle. From all
appearances the animals of both herds
are healthy, but as a matter Of fact
those of one herd are afflicted with
tuberculosis.
The poster also shows two childrec

The poster Is a strong appeal for
healthy cattle, and 1t Is to be used ex-
%tensively In the tuberculosis eradica-

department.
Careful experiments in practical
work have shown that tuberculosis
cannot be detected to any great extent

Prepared by the United States Depart

The man who makes Il genuinely

the spring Is a long way off, you say?
The bean poles are beginning to rot
already, and 1t Is time right nov to

away properly. And that is only one
of q considerable number of simple
things of equal importance that should
be done in the garden-now.
Because you have harvested all the

One OF the most important things is

Due to the cool weather Of the
spring and the freeze which occurred
early in the season, the Iowa agricul.
tural experiment station has had ar
opportunity to show the value OF com
mon barnyard manure on clover. It
has been found that where manure
was added to the fields only once In
the rotation the stand has been In
creased three times over the plots
where no manure was used.
Eight tons per acre were added to
the MANFRED plots and here the leaf
surface and root development are
heavier and better. Where phosphorus
was added at the same time as ma
nure, plants are Y more vigorous
and have 4 greater height.
