Uniform Eartagging
For Cattle Approved

A nationwide, uniform plan for
identifying dairy and beef cattle
with only one eartag for each an
inal is being pioneered by the
u. S. Department of Agriculture,
according to County Agent Geo.
Vapaa.
The plan is based on a number
ing system found practical in the
past for use in dairy herd i'm
provement activities.
This new system provides a
combination of letters and num-
bers sufficient to tag more than
8 billion cattle in the United
States and territories without a
single duplication. Thus many
different groups may use the iden-
tification number provided by the
first tagging of an animal with
out danger of finding later that
several cattle had this same num-
ber.
The most important feature OF
the new system is a single 'book''
(record of number assignments)
kept in each State. Official agen-
cies and groups will continue to
Smyrna times., 1955-10-27

buy identification tags where they
choose, but they first obtain a
block assignment of numbers from
the Federal or State official keep
ing the book within the State.
Animal disease eradication
workers report that one of the
chief difficulties in tracing cases
of bovine tuberculosis back to
their point of origin is the lack
of adequate identification of ami
mails sent to market. In some
cases an animal recently killed
has been found to have the same
tag number as that carried by
an animal still living.
Major advantages of the new
plan are: ~ no duplication of
Identification numbers; (2) only
one tag per animal, (3) no addi-
tional cost to individuals and
groups. AS central booking Of
fees are established at State ini-
tiative, the USDA anticipates that
the new system for uniform num-
bering will be quickly and widely
adopted.
