Probably Joseph Colodny, execu-

Merchants Association, was cor

one reason.
We are told that federal re-

the years from 1910 through 1913
cut the average crop by 64.500,-
600 pounds, or about 10 per cent.

Both these things are true. But
they don't offest the fact that

cutting hay, time when most of

is cut at the proper stage than
when it is allowed to mature. The

paign did not receive 100 per cent

DR.. Roberts says the opposition
to the testing of cattle and to the
slaughter of tubercular cattle de-
creased as the early tests revealed
an average of 5 per cent of all
cattle infected with the disease and
also instances where the percentage
of diseased cattle was much high
er. The estimated loss in livestock
from tuberculosis in 1922 was
S50,000,000 to the owners of the
cattle, and ~ estimate could be
made of the cost to people who ac-
quired the disease.
From 1917 to 1914, DR.. Roberts
reports that t71,000,000 separate
tests on cattle were made to find
infected animals, The tests reveal
ed about 3,8OO,000 animals which
were condemned for slaughter. The
expneSe to the federal government
was S96,O00,O00 and the states add
ed $150,000,0O0 as their share of
the cost of controlling bovine tu-
berculoSiS.
Cattle still are tested periodical
ly to make sure bovine tuberculosis
does not start to increase again,
and these tests show the percent
age of infected cattle is only 20
per cent of the 1918 average. DR..
Roberts declares that national
charts of human health show the
reduction in the percentage of
people affected with tuberculosis
has decreased by about the same
amount in the same period of time.

LATE HAY CUTTING
COSTS MUCH FEED

Hundreds of thousands of tons
of eXcellant livestock feed are lost
in Ohio every year, due to cutting
hay at the wrong time, is the claim
made by agronomists at Ohio State
university, who declares that the
time of cutting affects the ton
mage harvested, the quality of the
product and its digeStibility, the
amount of second growth, and the
permanence of the meadow.
The principal loss in haying is
caused by cutting the meadows too
late. The proportions of the differ
