cow TESTING ASSN.

Az a follow-up of the article in
Last weeks paper in regard to
nisns for the cow testing associa-
pt;on we want to say that when
enough herds and cows have been
s;cned to put the work over that
srganized meetings of the dairy
men of the county will be called
ND the testing association organ
;rad with local men as officials and
d;rectors in the organization. The
charges and plans for the work
have been made only tentatively.
r. is not probable however that
there can be much change in. these,
INF the members will have a
voice in the management of the
association thru their directors
and dairymen of the county should
keen this in mind.
Preliminary work toward sign
inc no has been started in prac-
tically every community in the
county. with some communities
making a definite organized at
tempt to reach every farmer inter-
ested at all in the work. We find
in getting around that practically
every farmer visited is interested
to the point where he is willing to
sign up and have hopes that the
work may be started by June LIST.
Considerable work must be done
after the signing up of members
by the way of securing sample
boxes, bottles. numbering the same
and securing man for testing, so
we are anxious to have enough
dairymen signed up by the middle
Of April, so we may start our
definite plans.
We trust that every farmer has
read the plans for testing run in
last weeks paper and those sign
ing up farmers will have to give
the minimum of time to this work.

Requests for T. B. Test

AsS4aSSto AVA 1s Ds 1CSt So
DR.. Barber in testing the cattle
of the county made definite at
tempt to clean up all herds in the
area being tested while working
in that general area. While in con-
ference with the county agent he
expressed himself as not entirely
sure of having secured all cattle
in the area between Kennewick
and the Hover ferry or between
Prosser and the county line west.
Farmers living in these two areas
and who have not yet had their
cattle tested had better notify the
county extension agent, Kennewick
of the location of their place and
the number of heads to be tested.
This will necessitate no loss of
time on the part of the tester as
he will check with the county ag-
ent on herds to be tested in these
two general areas, other areas of
the county will be tested by DIR.
Barnes and every herd tested as
he comes to them.
