Steel Orders Placed
To Avoid Shortages
In Event Of Strike
BY The Associoted Press

NEW YORK, June 2.-Steel
consumers are increasing their
orders to keep from getting
caught with their inventories
down in event of a strike. the
Iron Age, national Woodworking
weekly, said today.
This strike hedge buying will
keep growing until a new wage
agreement is reached. or the
union strikes" said the publi-
cation.
Bargaining between the CIO
United Steelworkers and United
States Steel is under way, with
the contract expiration date
June 80. Additional companies
also have begun tentative nego-
tiationS with bargaining teams
of the union.
Iron Age declared that "pro-
tective buying was noticed first
in tinplate several weeks ago and
since then some automotive
buyers have started building
their sheet and strip inventories
from 80 to As days."
Various other steel buyers are
showing new concern over their
supplies, the weekly stated.
"This is evidenced by requests
to move up some scheduled or
ders for quicker delivery, repeat
orders quicker than had been
expected. and q changing atti-
tude of some buyers toward steel
statesmen"
The publication said that If o
wage agreement is reached with
out q strike, you can look for a
moderate softening of the market
during the summer, to be fol-
lowed by a pickup in the last
quarter"
Steelmaking operations this
week are scheduled at 70.9 per
cent Of rated capacity.
The price of scrap steel rose
for the 11th consecutive week.
Increases this week raised the
Iron Age scrap composite price 33
cents a ton to $28.58 per gross

Farmers Warned
On New Disease

Midwestern cattle raisers were
urged today to watch for signs of
a peculiar new cattle disease which
occurs most often in winter and
early spring, and with fatal re-
suits.
The disease has been reported in
isolated outbreaks throughout the
midwest in recent years, according
TO the American Foundation for
Animal Health. Although similar
TO hyperkeratosis and virus diar~
rhea, the disease lis not compar-
able in all respects to these previ-
ously described conditions" the
Foundation said.
Research workers at Iowa State
College, where the disease has
been studied extensively, termed
it 'mucoSal disease" because it
causes ulcers on mucous men,
branes in the mouth and nostrils
of cattle.
Foundation officials said a sud
den rise in temperature, returning
rapidly to near normal complete
loss of appetite, watery scours,
drooling and emaciation are the
principal symptoms. The disease
causes ulcers of the noStrils, muz-
zle, lips, gums, tongue and oral
cavity.
So far, the Foundation said.
treatment has failed. Sulfa drugs
and antibiotics have no noticeable
effect. The use of blood transfus-
ions caused temporary improve
ment in most cases, but reIapscs
followed. Only three animals have
been known to survive the dis
ease.
Veterinary research workers are
continuing their studies seeking
the cause of the condition and
methods of treatment, Foundation
officials added.

Gull Poor Cows
And Save Feed

One way to stretch short dairy
feed supplies is to feed only the
best cows, says c. D. McGrew, eX-
tension specialist, Ohio State Uni
versity.
McGrew points out that better
cows will return more for feed
than COWS that should be culled
from the herd. He calls it false
economy to refuse to Gull a dairy
herd because declining beef prices
have lowered Gull cattle prices"
Getting maximum milk output
per COW helps keep down produc-
ton costs per pound, the specilist
says. Most efficient way to handle
low producers is to Gull and sell.
The first step in culling is a

conditions, a cow producing 5000
pounds of milk or less a year will
not pay for her feed and other
