The total number of cattle in
herds fully accredited as free from
tuberculosis exceeds 1885, 900. The
work of tuberculosis eradication is
going forward systematically in all
States. During the last month of
the fiscal year the inspectors engag-
ed in tuberculin testing applied the
test to more than 100000 cattle. OF
which approximately $4,000 were
found to be affected with the disease.
The removal of such reactors from
contact with healthy cattle, followed
by the slaughter of diseased animals
under Federal inspection, is gradual
ly reducing the extent of bovine
tuberculosis throughout the country
and benefting both the livestock in
dustry and public health.

ADVERTISING COMES INTO ITS
OWN


Public utility companies will
spend S2S,O00,OOO for advertising
this year" Here, in this news item,
is food for thought. 1t makes one
wonder If there are still reactionaries
who insist that advertising is useless
and waste of investors money.
Statistics on the strides that ad-
vertising expenditure and space have
taken, would be of tremendous inter-
est to the student of modern indus
try and business. In the past TWEEN
ty years it has unquestionably doubl-
ed itself many times. Through the
various mediums, and most import
ant of all, the newspapers, advertis-
ing and publicity have grown to pro-
portions where they are among the
greatest forces known for furthering
progress and forwardness. The re-
cent unprecedented growth of the
public utilities are directly traceable
in large degree, to the effect OF
wide and intelligent advertising
Far from being a waste OF investors
money 1t is a safeguard in that ii
the company or product advertised is
honest and worthwhile, that COM
pany's business or sales will increase
in direct proportion to the amount
of advertising.
Progressive business is learning
that the only thing better for bust
ness than extensive advertising. is
more extensive advertising plus a
good product or service.

but forests usually perform this func-

This Is because of the thick mulch OF

more, they are constantly feeding
humus into the soil itself, increasing
its porosity and binding its mineral
