sSues Identification Tags

Civil Defense Identification Tags

hope that the nation wide tagging
program will be a success. Early
this year Civil Defense which
has been hampered by lack Of
manpower and money to carry
out the program - received an
offer of help from Pet Milk Co.
In fact the company, which al
ready has a splendid record of
public service, volunteered to take
over the complete tagging pro-
gram.
Could FCDA accept this badly

law said they cou,d-private indus
tries had helped in some tagging
campaigns in small areas, as well
as in other projects such as the
development Of first-aid kits And

 These figures are based on the average for three years of field plots at the Agricultural Experi- ment Station near Palmer. Laughlin is with the experiment station staff.
 All plots received the three major fertilizing elements of nj trogen, phosphorus and potas- sium. Profits in the value of bromegrass produced are returns after the station paid all costs over the amount it costs to pro- duce bromegrass hay without fertilizer.
