fishing. swimming and boating AS
attractions.
Other Water Trips.
The man who prefers a pleasant
short trip, with salt water sports in
view, can make the trip to Colonial
Beach, Va, aboard the-steamer ST.
Johns. 1t is a five-hour trip dur
ing which all the points Of interest
IN the upper river may be seen by
daylight. Fishing, grabbing, swim
ming and motor and sailboating are
IN order. Canoes or rowboats may
be obtained. Behind the beach is
small winding bayou, near the head
OF which was the home of Presi-
dent Monroe. A few miles down
the river, within easy reach of the
beach by boat, is Pope's Creek and
Wakefield, the home of George
Washington. A little farther down
are the famous Nomini cliffs, tow
ering clay and mari banks in which
are scores of fossilized remains of
sea animals. Fossil sharks teeth
may be found in large numbers
along the beach at the foot of the
cliffs, but the bones are chalky and
cannot be removed.
Two-day trips may be made by
steamer to New York or Providence
from Baltimore, which may be
reached by railroad or steamer at
the choice of the traveller.
In the hot days one of these
many water trips will we'll repay
the man who must take his vaca-
ton by meager gnatches.

The lure Of the winding road, OF
the sun-flooded beach and the ripple
Of water and of the whisper of
mountain breezes through the cool
depths of the hillside groves has
again begun to take It's toll OF
Washingtonians.
Those who are blessed with the
sin3ws Of vacation time have al.
ready closed up their homes and
headed for other parts. For these
the New England sea resorts, the
wilds Of Maine, Canada, other points
North have exercised their charms
successfully.
Others there are who must vet
amass much wealth before harken-
ing to such lure as this. These
still bend over their desks from
Monday to Friday when, il lucky,
they call 1T a week and seek a
couple OF days recreation.

Some interesting figures have been
compiled by the United States depart
ment of agriculture to show what can
be made from a definite quantity of
milk Using 100 pounds of milk which
tests per cent, it has been found that
this quantity will make about 4.8
pounds of butter, IL pounds of Ched-
dar cheese, As fifteen-ounce cans of
condensed milk, 12.5 pounds of whole-
milk powder, 8.5 pounds of Swiss
cheese, or % pounds of Camembert
cheese. The exact amounts of these
products that can be made from 100
pounds of milk varies with the rich
ness of the milk In fat and other solids.
A number of by-products are also
formed by the different processes.

Dairymen Refuse to Keep Herds
Found Tubercular-Find
Small Number Left.
UTAH BUYS DAIRY STOCK
Second Shipment Leaves Washington
County Agents Instrumental In
improving Herds.

To ascertain the extent to which
cattle that have reacted to the tubei-
culin test are being held as segregated
herds in the United States, recent
survey was made through the field of
fees of the bureau of animal indus
try, United States department of agri-
culture.
Data gathered show that there are
within the United States only FOL
herds containing 2,461 tuberculous
cattle permanently maintained for
breeding purposes. In addition, there
are on 191 premises 447 animals,
which on June 80, 1928, were being
held temporarily for various reasons.
This is total of only 1872 premises on
which there are zoos head of tuber-
culous cattle that have been held
longer than the usual 30-day period.
Frequent discussion of the problem
of retaining diseased cattle after they
have reacted to the tuberculin test
has led to the belief that the idea
might be favorably looked upon by
the livestock owners of the United
States. The figures quoted above,
however, indicate that the progressive
American farmer is DESTROYS of totally
the disease at the earliest
possible moment, which undoubtedly
accounts for the small number of such
cattle being held. Prompt slaughter
of cattle reacting to the tuberculin
test is the prevailing custom in the
United States. since the results OBJ
tanned from holding cattle do not APP |
pear to justify the additional labor and |
expense.
