Paratyphoid Warming
Given Turkey Growers

Because of the nature of para
typhoid and the heavy mortality
likely to follow an outbreak in
young poults, great care should be
used in the selection of the source
of Matching eggs and baby poults,
says DR.. G. NJ Hamilton, assistant
veterinarian at the Western Wash
ington experiment station at Puy-
allup. Matching eggs and poults as
we'll as adult stock should be pur
chased from farms definitely known
to be free of paratyphoid infection.
Poults that have the disease and
recover may remain carriers. Be-
cause of this, the infection present
in the ovaries of carrier breeding
hens may be transmitted to fertile
eggs. Poults Matching from these
eggs may be directly infected at
Matching time. The disease Is then
spread in the incubator and BROOD
er to non-infected poults. Attempts
to eliminate the disease by funi-
eating the eggs in the incubator,
by isolation of sick poults and
medication in the drinking water,
do not seem effective in checking
the trouble.
During the spring of 1887 the
first known case of paratyphoid
was found in turkeys in Washing
ton. The disease occurred in lot
of baby po,,lts purchased in All,
other state.
Paratyphoid is caused by a dis
ease organism which in turkeys
causes a septicemic disease of
poults. The poults die rapidly up
to 10 days of age. Weakness and
occasional diarrhea are the con:~
mon symptoms. A laboratory ex-
animation is necessary for a COR
rect diagnosis of the trouble.

Dairy Industry's Fate
Lies In Purebred Herds

The fate of the high quality
Washington dairy COW depends OH
3.447 COWS in the state located in
3O7 herds, DR.. Otto j. Hill, extern
sion dairy1nan, State College OF
Washington, told dairynen OF the
state at their annual meeting i'll
Yakima.
These are the number of regis
tered COWS in the state, Hill said.
'These COWS with good type and
production records must provide
the seed stock for future dairy
herds"
THE future of dairying in Wash
ington will be determined to large
extent by improvements made in
the cattle. At present Washington
has fine market for surplus cat
tie. The drought area is being re-
stocked with dairy cattle and Cali
fornia is demanding more replace
ment cattle than usual. Other states
are also supplying cattle to these
markets. When they are restocked,
competition will be keener and the
best COWS will have a market
Average butterfat production in
Washington is 212 pounds. This is
10 pounds above the national aver
age but is far below the point for
greatest profit. The quality of
Washington COWS must continue
above the average in order to MAIN
tain these markets.
Continued production increases
depend on the use of better pure
bred bulls and the testing of all
COWS in each herd every year. These
records will provide information
from which to maintain and in
crease dairy production"
Hill pointed out that dairy herd
Improvement associations under the
supervision of the extension service
are testing 1,091 herds containing
1926 COWS. These are only SIS per
cent of the COWS in Washington,
The average production of the
tested COWS is 1886 pounds of but
terfat, or 1913 pounds more than
the state average.

clothing, has been in Benton coun-
ty for meetings with leaders in the

admirably, says Miss Helen Steiner,

tual arrangements to be made It is

All Farms Need More
Fertilizer Says Hegnauer

| Although fertilizer costs per acre
are not excessive, there is need for
additional fertilizer on almost every
farm, declares Leonard Hegnauer,
extension agronomist, State Col
lege of Washington.
In spite of the fairly low cash
cost for commercial fertilizers,
many farmers who need them have
not been able to afford them be-
fore, but with increased buying
power a greater use of fertilizer
is foreseen.
A national fertilizer magazine IN
a recent issue states that the COM
mercial use of fertilizer for all
crops including cotton was greater
in 1887 than in 1886 by nearly a
million tons. The amount was a
half million tons over the 1880
mark, previous all time high.
The magazine said that fruit
and vegetable crops are receiving
increasing amounts of fertilizer be-
cause of the greater Importance of
these crops in recent years. Vege-
table crops in particular are re-
ceiving increased attention.
Hay and pasture lands are be-
ing fertilized more, as we'll 1t Is
| relatively easy to secure profitable
returns from fertilizer applied to
such feed crops.
Use of fertilizer is not uniform
throughout the country. Five states,
the Carolinas, Georgia, Florida and
Alabama use SO per cent of all fer
tilizers sold. This indicates, says
Mr.. Hegnauer, that the rest of the
country will have to use more fer
tilizer in the future.
Hegnauor quo.os the fertilizer
magazine as saying that for every
dollar of cash farm income in 1887,
exclusive of that from cotton and
it's y-products, about ZIG cents
are required to pay for the fertil-
izer.

COMMON SENSE is BEST
DIET GUIDE, SAYS EXPERT

Don't make your dinner table
into a prescription counter" SAYS
Leila Wall Hunt. head of the de-
partment of foods and nutrition at
Washington State College. use
some good common sense and
choose plenty of simple foods with
emphasis on milk, fruits and veg
etables. Natural desire for food and
a healthy appetite should have a
place in the selection of food

Asparagus and most other truck
crops respond best to a combine
ton of manure and commercial fer
tilizers. says tho department of
horticulture at Washington State
College. The manure increases the
humuS content of the soil and in
turn makes conditions more favor
able for the commercial fertilizers
and other elements in the soil to
become available
White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1938-01-28
THE SOUTH BUILDS UP ITS SOIL

The rest of the nation has for some time treated
the South as an unwanted relative, and through
magazine and newspaper articles we have been
led to believe that that section of the country is
in dire straits of distress, presumably through
improper methods of farming the soil
However, if we accept the fact that Of the
soil is the prime consideration in any system of
farm productions then the South must be in pretty
good shape after ALL for statistics show that that
area uses 50 per cent of the fertilizer put into the
soil in this nation
Perhaps the rest of the nation should take more
careful note of what is really being done in the
South

ANTI-LYNCHING BILL

Southern senators are to be commended for
their fight against the anti-lynching bill, for if
any measure intended to stir up sectional
feelings it is this Even though it should be
constitutional in letter, it is unconstitutional in
spirit. Our western congressman, who have had to
fight so continually against the 11asts attempt to
halt the development of this area, should recog-
nize the intent of the bill

MERCHANT MARINE NEEDED

AS the Panay incident fades into the past and
a surfeit of war news removes the martial mead
lines from the daily PRESS greater feeling OF Sc
curity is apparent IN America, with former
thoughts of the mminence of war giving way to
economic and political matters and a renewed IN
terest in every day events.
But this feeling of security from ENHANCEMENT
in somebody else's war is not yet based on very
solid foundation, for there are many indications
that we are bungng along toward situation
which may force our hand, and from which there
is no backing down.
During the past few years, America has been
one of the leaders in the race for re-armament
We may say that the European nations are to
blame for "reviving war-like gestures, but this
hardly excuses our governments eagerness to
partake in the race
A big navy has been urged for some time, and
during the depression appropriations tor con-
structing ships was increased considerably.
Now we are told that with conflict in Asia and
conflict in Europe, it is necessary for America to
spend even more money for cruisers and BATTLE
ships that we may be ready for any eventuality.
Such a program will only hasten the day when
America must once again go to war, rather than
to postpone it OF to forestall it completely.
At the same time that this program of rearm-
ament is being proposed, our merchant marine is
fading into oblivion. Should the money now pro-
posed for the construction of batteshps be trans
ferred to program of rebuilding and revitalizing
merchant marine system, would be able
to regain much of our foreign trade and at the
same time build an even more solid foundation
of security
