REA Opens New
Offices or
Noble County
CGioperatives Combine
To Give Rural Users
Efficient Service

The system of Washington FL
ectric Cooperative, Inc, opened
offices on the second floor of the
l. o. o. F. building, Monday, with
Mrs. Irma K. Wheeler, of Mari
eta, in charge.
On May %, Guernsey-M -Musking-
um Cooperative, which controlled
some 602 rural users in Noble
county, was transferred from the
former to the Washington Coop
eratives branch.
According to information re-
ceived from officials of the COM
pany, new sub-station has been
completed near Senecaville and
it is believed that this sub-station
would be able to furnish power
for all the customers involved in
the transfer.
In addition to the 602 rural
users, some additional lines have
been constructed in the area
which will be added to the new
firm.
1t is though that numerous
other new lines will be construct
ed in the future, thereby adding
to the growth of the company
and to the service which will be
afforded to the numerous rural
users.
In the very near future, the
Caldwell office will have linemen
who will take care of all repair
and calls from new customers in
the Noble county area.
No new iinemen have been
hired in the area but the COM
pany has laid plans for the .hir-
ing of a staff of linemen to care
for the Noble county area. Gus
toners in the area will then re-
ceive prompt service on calls and
new customers will be serviced
as soon as conditions permit.
, This should be of great benefit
to local customers who, in the
past, had to await repairs and at
tention from distant offices
where the staff was already ov-
ertaxed. 1t is felt that speedier
service and the local office will
give local rural users one of the
most efficient power sources in
southern Ohio. -

Health Board Urges
Bangs Disease Tests

All owners of cows or herds,
who sell raw milk to consumers,
are being urged this week by the
Noble County Board of Health to
have their cattle tested for tuber-
culosis and brucellosis or Bangs
disease.
This action was taken follow
ing receipt of bulletin from the
Ohio Department of Health, in
which it stated that this animal
disease was a far greater menace
than the rabies caused by a mad
dog. ~.~ss
DR.. N. S. Reed, health commits
sioner, said that many owners in
the county and throughout the
state had become lax in this re-
spect and if necessary, it would
become compulsory for them to
comply.
Discussion of this menace high
lighted regular meeting of the
health board held Saturday after
noon.
DR.. Reed pointed out that one
infected herd can wipe out much
of the gain made in recent years
One infected herd might do this
community more harm than q
| dozen mad dogs.
The state and county health de-
partment have now entered the
picture and there will be no lei
up in the clean up campaign until
Bangs disease is as completely
eradicated as bovine tuberculosis
