SEED
NOW AVAILABLE

DR.. Ivan c. Jaeger of the U. S.
Department of Agriculture has in
formed the Farm Advisors Office
that limited quantities of seed OF
the new early brown blight
resistant lettuce Imperial BAT is
available. Growers desiring small
lots of this seed can obtain it by
writing to DR.. Jaeger, care of the
U. S. Department of Agriculture,
. at La Jolla, Calf. Growers should
jmention the number of pounds OF
seed which they can use. DR.. Jag
ger emphasized that this new varl-
ETY. is not yet being recommended
until it has been fully tried out
under field conditions. He also
stated that larger quantities of the
No. BAT seed will be available
through commercial channels for
paintings in November. This COM
mercial supply of seed is now be-
ing harvested in northern Califor-
MIA, but such new seed is not
adapted for immediate use in Sep
tember. The seed that he now Of
fers for distribution was harvested
in Imperial Valley last spring and
is suitable for September planting
DR.. Jaeger states that the differ
ent strains of lettuce have very
definite planting dates in Imperial
Valley. He recommends that I'm
perial 152 be planted from Septem-
ber 20 to 25, inclusive. For the
period September 26 to October 5,
imperial 6l5 is recommended. This
is followed by Imperial l3 for plant
ing between October 5 and Is. For
planting between October 16 and
October 81, Imperial 615 again is
used. He states that no variety can
definitely be recommended for No
, vember paintings, but suggests that
imperial BAT and Imperial F might
'be tried for these very late plant
ings.

u. S. CONTINUES
DRIVE ONCATTLE
TUBERCULOSIS

Of the 1910 counties in the Unit
ed States, 2923-plus the District OF
Columbia and four municipalities
in Puerto Rice-were on the modi-
fied-accredited list in August as
practically free of cattle tubercu-
losis, reports DR.. A. E. Wight, OF
the Bureau of Animal Industry.
This means that in all but lat
counties infection existed to less
than a half of per cent.
During the last 6 months of 1885
and the first 6 months of 1886 about
23,OO0,O0O tuberculin tests were
made on cattle. Each month some
counties are added to the accredit-
ed list. The counties not yet ac-
credited are in California, South
Dakota, Vermont, New York, Rhode
Island, New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
and Maryland, each of which al
ready has some counties accredited.
During the 12-month period, cat
tie tuberculosis was virtually stamp
ed out in all herds in 493 counties,
and 18 states were designated as
accredited. The fortieth and most
recent was Nebraska. AS cattle are
retested in accredited areas, occa-
sional infections are found, en-
rhasizing the need for such re-
testing, says DR.. Wight. The De-
partment of Agriculture has list
of counties in the modified-accred-
tied areas. A copy may be obtained
on request.
The germ of cattle tuberculosis
was discovered in 1882. Tuberculin
for testing first was used in 1890
and the method greatly improved
upon by department scientists in
1926. The department began the
work of systematic eradication on
a cooperative basis with the states
and counties in 1917.
For the rapid progress of tuber-
culosis-eradication campaign, Dr.
Wight gives credit to the accuracy
of the test and to the generally
splendid cooperation of cattle own
ers, state livestock. officials, and
others.

FILM ACTRESS
MISSES CHANCE
TO BE PRINCESS

HOLLYWOOD, Sept. 11UP)-Lupe
Velez, dark-eyed chile pepper of
the motion picture profession, to-
night missed a chance to become
not only a Chickasaw Indian prin-

Frank Joseph Whitman, because she
wasn't home when he called.
The chief arrived in Hollywood
early today from Milwaukee, and
Immediately looked up Miss Velez.
His procedure was simple and di-
rect: He stood on street corners and
yelled for her.
This intrigued the populace and
ultimately the police, who caught
up with Chief Whitman just as he
was banging on the door of the
Velez residence.
The 31-year-old Indian, a robust
example of aboriginal American,
was taken in tow as a possible
kidnaper, but he quickly set them
right on that point. Miss Velez, he
explained, was his wife, temporar-
lily.
Somebody remembered the ex-
