Ward of CTfl BAdJ FAHZ3 elt The number of cattle tested for tuberculosis In the country under government and state supervision during the fiscal year ended June 80, 1920, was 24 per cent more than for the preceding year, according to the United States Department of Agriculture. Nearly every phase of tuberculosis-eradicatio- n work showed an increased activity during the year. Though the accredited-her- d plan of combating the disease was conducted in all the states, general preference was given the area project which provides for the testing of all cattle in a county. Under this plan oyer 6,500,000 cattle were tested, or over 1,500,000 more than during the preceding year. Of noteworthy interest in connection with the tuberculin testing under both accredited-her- d and area plans was a survey to show the present estimated extent of the disease.' The survey showed the probable extent of the.. disease as 2.8 per cent, meaning that on an average 28 cattle out' of every 1,000 in the United States are tuberculous. In 1922 the estimated per cent of irfection was 4 per cent. Sweet Clover Valuable in Building Up Soils The value of sweet clover as a green manure or soil builder Is becoming more and more apparent. Those interested In soil conservation and bunding have had remarkable success with the use of corn, wheat and sweet r clover In a rotation. The Inoculated sweet clover Is sown In the spring on the wheat After the wheat Is harvested the clover occupies the land for the remainder of the season. The next spring it makes a rapid growth, and during the latter part of April is plowed under and the land prepared for corn. At the Missouri College of Agriculture it has been found profitable to fertilize the land with about 100 pounds of acid phosphate to the acre. Where the phosphate is added the amount of green clover ready to turn under was about five tons per acre against three tons per acre where no Auto phosphate was used... FREE! FREE!!
