cation OF Bangs disease.

cation Of Bangs disease.
The disease is not hereditary, but
is contagious, and is contracted
readily in pastures and drinking
places. The germs upon entering
the digestive tract pass to the re-
productive organs and cause abor-
ton, once and perhaps twice and
then reproduction continues regu-
larly. The animal still spreads the
germs. Calves under six months
old do not contract the disease.
The department will test every 80
days in a community till the d.
sease is eradicated. Allowing own
ers of diseased cattle Is days to
dispose of same the federal govern
ment will pay $500 head and the
department is asking the state leg
islature for like amount at the
next session. Gov. Martin has given
his approval and If passed by the
legislature, the owners of diseased
cattle will receive state compensa-
ton for cattle already disposed of,
and a reasonable price for their
stock In the future.
The federal government, however,
will not pay the $500 to anyone
who does not dispose of his stock
within the l5-day limit. Milk and
cream from condemned cattle will
not be saleable. -e.
The writer urges all dairymen In
this territory to cooperate with the
state in cleaning out this disease.
This state is one of the few that
will be recognized by congress in the
next session for having met all
necessary requirements and for
making preparations to continue the
fight during the coming year.
The department of agriculture
has asked the legislature of the
state for 100000 to carry on during
this coming year. With complete
cooperation between the dairymen
and the department this work will
be carried on faster and q larger
territory covered. Elimination Of
Bangs disease in this state will
greatly increase the value OF the
cattle in the state.
The writer Is convinced that this
state Is attempting to do q valu-

The constitutional amendment to
permit the levy Of an income tax
which will be on the ballot on No
vember 9Th, appears to have the US
ual backing Of those who are sell
fishly interested in getting more
money into the hands Of govern
ment and out Of the hands Of the
people who earn 1t. The enact
ment Of an income tax law In this
state would only add another tax
burden to individuals who are
struggling to earn q living and to
businesses hard pressed to contin-
ue to employ our people. The Gov
ernor says. mo more taxes are

AS one Of the possibilities pre-
sented by the liberation plant con-
troversy In Pasco was that of sup
plying the City of Kennewick with
water. Such plan would undoubt-
edly be advantageous to both mu-
inequalities and would give both
good pure water. City officials, at
tempting to operate under the re-
stricted budget limitations are cast
ing about for new sources of revenue
which seem to be limited to the op-
Grafton of utilities. The Pasco wa
ter system has been profitable
city enterprise since its acquisition,
but whether the City of Kennewick
could make it pay or not is a ques-
ton. Nothing further may come Of
the proposition, Of course, but it is
an interesting speculation.

Probabilities are that change
will be made In the game laws In
the near future. Much sentiment
has been created regarding the
posting Of property. It Is urged that
once piece Of land has been post
ed, it Immediately assumes the stat
us Of reserve and not even the
owner Of the land will be allowed
to shoot upon it. Eventually the
fued between the hunter and the
property owner will be cleared up,
for both parties have brought crit
icism upon themselves by their
thoughtless and careless attitudes.
A measure of tolerance will make a
tremendous difference.

would add to the states income and

 The monthly meeting of the board of public welfare is scheduled to be held Monday night at o'clock in the town hall.

 It is believed the superintendent will report that credit due the town from the state for state cases here during the first quarter of the fiscal year has been received.

This department has been hardest hit of any by the depres- sion locally and until recently, when some residents were recalled back to work, had very night monthly expenditures. The department is expected to show big deficit at the end of the fiscal year.
