haiion's Farm Editors
Honor A. B, Graham

DR.. A. B. Graham, of Colum-
bus, father of the All club move.
ment in America, won the ac-
claim of the nations farm editors
this week when they presented
him with their coveted Distin-
guished Service award.
The 89-year-old Graham re-
ceived the award Wednesday,
Dec. 4, in ceremonies in Chicago
where the American Agricultural
Editors association was holding
its annual meeting.
The award was the second
high honor to go to Graham
within a Today period. Last
week he was cited for distin-
guished service by the Ohio
Farm Bureau Federation.
Born on a farm in Champaign
county, April 13, 1868, Graham
organized the fore-runner of
Al clubs in 1902. AS superinten-
dent of Springfield township
schools in Clark county, he
observed that field trips and
demonstration often were better
methods of teaching some agri-
cultural and home economics
subjects than classrooms. He
recruited IS farm youngsters into
Boys and Girls Experiment
Clubs" These clubs provided the
foundation on which the Al
movement was built.
In 1905 Graham joined the
staff Of The Ohio State Univer-
sity and became Ohio's first
director of the Agricultural Ex-
tension Service. He was the first
man in the United States to mold
such a position on a full-time
basis.
Graham was in charge of ex-
tension for the New York State
School of Agriculture from 1914
to 1915 and in 1915 became sup
ervisor of Agricultural Exten-
sion specialists in the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture. He
held the latter position until his
retirement in 1888.
The American Agricultural
Editors association includes edi-
tors from about IS farm publica-
tions with a combined circula-
ton of more than 20 million d
month. It's Distinguished Service
award is made each year to
some outstanding Individual in
agriculture. Last year It went to

Ohio Dairymen Hear
Report On Masiiiis
Control Studies


Bug chasing will not control
maStitis, DR.. J. J. Reid, bacterio-
logist of Pennsylvania State
University, told Ohio dairymen
last week at an annual meeting
of the Ohio Dairyman's associa-
ton on The Ohio State Univer-
sity campus.
Citing data obtained in mas
tits studies conducted at Penn
State, DR.. Reid said attempts to
control udder trouble by trying
to eliminate micro o-organisms as
sociated with the disease have
not worked. However, strict
observance to good management
practices has.
Some animals, by heredity, he
said, are more susceptible to
udder trouble than others. Also
involved in the development of
mastitis, he noted, are such
environmental factors as slow
milking practices, leaving the
milking machine on too long,
improperly operated milking
equipment, poor housing, lack
of adequate bedding, exposure
to inclement weather, mechanical
injuries, improper feeding prac-
tices, improper drying-off techni-
ques and lack of adequate care
of the dry and recently fresh
ened animal.
Such practices as dipping teat
cups in a chlorine solution be-
fore each cow is milked or wip-
ing the udder with a cloth
soaked in a chlorine solution
have not been effective in con-
trolling mastitis, Reid said.
"Mastitis control has been
achieved" the speaker noted,
''in number of high-producing
herds. This is possible if the
heredity of the animals is ade-
quate, their comfort is main
tanned and they are not pushed
by feeding practices beyond
their hereditary capacity to
produce"
Other speakers appearing on
the program included represen-
tatives of The Ohio State Uni
versity and the Agricultural
Extension Service.
In a business session the as
sociation reelected all officers
for another year. They are John
w. Thomas, dairy farmer of Bal
timore, president; Paul Daniels,
dairy farmer of Kenton, vice
president; Ralph A. Porterfield,
Ohio State University extension
dairy specialist, associate secre.
tary and w. j. Brakel, Ohio
State University associate pro-
tessor of dairy science, secretary
treasurer.
