Tubercuin Test Made at Cost of
Eiuhtaan Canta Per Head

The AREA plan" OF eradicatins
tuberculosis Of live stock is now we'll
esta blshed in many states. BY this
plan, an area of considerable size,
generally a county. is freed from
tuberculosis by the systematic test
ing OF all cattle and the removal of
reactors. 1t has been accepted by the
live stock owners, as they evidently
believe the plan is a practicable one.
The work can be conducted in a LAUGH
shorter time and at less expense than
the accredited herd work. Then, too,
it means the suppression OF the
disease among all the herds in a
given area. in contrast with accredit-
ing herds here and there which may
be in close proximity to infected
herds on adjacent farms.
AS a demonstration of the FEAST
bility Of tuberculin testing of all the
herds within county, no better
example can be given than the work
done in Wahkiakum County, Wash,
during July and August. 1921. The
work started in that county august
3 and was completed September 8.
Every herd in the county with the
exception Of two was tested by DIR.
l.. V. Hardy, veterinary inspector
of the Bureau of Animal Industry,
United States Department of AGpi-
culture.
One OF the two herds not tested
consisted Of only two animals. This
owner desired to have test applied
but was unable to catch the animals,
which were running in a large pas
ture and were very wild. '1he other
owner refused to submit to the test
until just as the inspector was leav-
ing the county. when he sent word
that he desired that the test be ap-
piled.
The work was carried on princi-
pally in cooperation with the farm
bureau members. They furnished
conveyance whenever there was
member who owned an automobile.
The county appropriated funds to pay
operating expenses of the automo-
biles. and also to hire conveyances
when necessary. Farm bureau men,
hers cooparated 30 we'll that not a
single days time was lost on account
of transportation. When it In con-
sidered that the work was done with
out any compulsory laws or reguIa-
tions. and was wholly a voluntary
proceeding. 1t 10 felt that the county
test was extraordinarily complete.
The actual number of herds tested
was 5S7, comprising 1899 cattle. The

Ex-Service Men
Urge Bonus at

New York, March - Resolutions
urging enactment by congress of the
proposed five fold plan bonus for
world war veterans were adopted
today at four mass meetings of for
mer service men held under auspices
of the various veterans associations.
Representative Lester d. Nolk, of
New York; Martin McCue, former
state senator; Warren Fisher, ma
tional commander of United Ameri-
can War Veterans, and Miss Julia
Wheelock of Barbara f'reitchie Post,
American Legion. spoke in favor ia
vor of the bonus to a gathering in
Lexington theatre.
Bonus opponents tell u.s." said
Representative Nolk, that if we set
the bonus the country will be put
into a condition of financial ruin.
Yet congress helped the railroads
with a bonus when the roads faced
FINANCIAL embarra ssment.
1.-The United States Is the only
creditor nation in the ~,crld and yet
the only nation that has failed to
give its soldiers bonus"
McCue declared the assertion of
opponents of adjusted compensation
for veterans that bonus would bur-
den the public with additional taxes
as bunk"
Don't permit congress to smother
the bonus bill under such a smoke
SCREEN" he said while you boys
were in France there were a lot of
moral towards in congress who al
lowed themselves to be frightened
into putting over an amendment and
a law which threw thousands out of
work and cost the government mil
lions of dollars in taxation. more
than enough to pay this same bonus.

and the Nolstead act"
Other bonus meetings were held in
Brooklyn and the Borough of Queens.
