Show ' FREE HERD OF TUBERCULOSIS Satisfactory Progress In Plan of Erad. icatlon Made During First Year of Work. (Prepared by tKe United State Depart-ment of Agriculture.) The tuberculosis-fre- e accredited herd plan, Inaugurated "in December, 1917, and worked out in with the bureau of animal Industry, United States department of agriculture, was slightly ehonged at the twenty-secon- d annual meeting of the United States Live Stock Sanitary association held at Chicago In December. It was agreed to strike out the word "purebred" so Although Apparently Healthy These Animals Are Positive Reactors to the Tuberculin Test as to admit to certification grade herds in addition to registered cattle. The annual conference between rep-resentatives of the United States Live Stock Sanitary association and the Purebred Cattle Breeders' association resulted in the further Indorsement of the tuberculosis eradication campaign and a recommendation that the work be extended as rapidly, as possible. The accredited-her- d plan Is to test cattle with tuberculin at the request ot the owner, eliminate any reacting animals either by slaughter or by fol-lowing prescribed sanitary measures, repeat the test at prescribed intervals, and list as tuberculosls-fre- e accredited herds all herds entitled to that dis-tinction. Very satisfactory progress has been made during he first year of the work, and prospects for the future are bright. During the y.tr 296 herds, comprising 9,284 cattle, have been fully "accredited" as free from tuber-culosis, and 1,462 herds, having 35,052 cattle, passed one successful test in preparation for certification. In addi-tion 4,622 herds, both purebred and prade, totaling 98,002 animals, have been under supervision for the eradi-cation of tuberculosis. Ench month additional herds are added to the list 4gJ$J v'- rrr S - af'iioar-tGun- d soft drink Popular demand built Bevo s fjyeai plan-t-fgdjil . tho tuoi perfect indusiri.il equipi-iei-- . in ilio world.

' ' "Me-o- me-ow,-". said the cat, "I've come." ' "From where have you come?" ask-- , ed the other animals. "From" the city," said the cat proud-- " ly. "I am not a country cat, I did a City cat. ; Isn't that One?" . """We don't know about that," said the country animals. "Well, you should," said the cltv " cat. "Now, look here, cat," sn!d the nth' v er animals, "If you are going to pui on airs, we won't like you. We're rtg-- - T nlar animals with lots of sense." "Yes,? said the farmhouse cat, "and , we've all heard about. these proud city cats who run down alleys and get into garbage tins whenever possible." t The city cat kept very quiet, for he knew- - all this was true and he won-dered where they'd heard about him. They hadn't heard about him in par-- , tlcular, but about cts In general, and they knew what they would do them-selves, for there were four cats on this farm. "I'm sorry," said the city cat. "I ' didn't mean to put on airs. But I did want to tell you an adventure or two. l Now I have spoilt It all by being silly and conceited and acting In a superior fashlon."- - "Well forgive you," "said the other .cats and the other farm animals who had gathered around. "Let us hear - your story." "Yes, gobble, gobble, let us hear it," said the white turkey with the red crown. "We want to hear It, gobble, gobble," said a turkey with funny crooked legs. And the little baby turkeys said, "Please let us hear your story." x "Let us hear your story," said a nice pet monkey which belonged to the farmer's little girl. The monkey was in an enormous cage on the farm-house piazza. ' And the farmer's son, wjho was fly-ing kites and watching them as they went up and up, and waved about in the breeze stopped when he saw the , cat had Just come. For he had heard about this cat and he wanted to see him. - ; : That pleased the city cat Immense-ly but he only said, t "I won't be horrid and proud again.' reully." ',, "That's good," the animals sa'rt. "but please tell us your story." Then the farmer's boy arrived and he took the cat which had just corns - , from the city in his lap and suld, "I've heard great things about you. pussy." The cat purred and the hoy stroked the cat as the cat talked to the other animals and told his story. The boy . only heard the purring, the steady pur-ring, but he already knew the cat's So the Cat Told His Story. story, so it didn't matter if he didn't understand what the cat was saying. ." He --simply knew, the cat was nice and soft and furry . and had Tiad n - interesting life and he was glad the cat seemed to get on with the other farm animals. So the cat told his story as he sat in the boy's lap, and this was his story : ; "Friends, farm-hous- e and farm-yar- d animals," he said, "I belonged to a fireman. Now a fireman, animals, Is a man, who puts out fires. X "In the city there are great fires and the fire engines rush to themr oh so fast. Every wagon, every carriage, every automobile, every- - person stops when the fire engines go along a city street, they get put of the way and .stop to make room for the engines which dash nlong, with the firemen on top. "The firemen hurry so that they put on their coats and their helmets as they rush to the fire. The ffre bell clangs ns they go along and they get to the fire, put up the lodders, turn on the hose, and work with might and main to put out the. fire. "They rescue people, they work and they do not think of themselves. Oh. tl'ose firemen are brave, friends, they're so brave! "They don't think of themselves, they think of how they can save people find homes and buildings. And they dare do anything. Oh, such ehnnces as they take, such brave, brave chance. "And ns I bolonied to fireman I Irnriu'd to climb ladders and poles and . chop I hpnrd a sound from a room on the second story I climbed a pole and saw a child In the room and I let my master know and the ohlld was saved. So they called me the fireman cat. ' But now I am tired out so I l.uve come hereto rest with you In the . beautiful country." ; g ' MRS. YAKIMA Mrs. Yakima, who founded "the Woman's Christian Temperance union In Japan 30 years ago, has been most earnest In her efforts to fight social evils and establish rescue homes. The ratification of the prohibition amend-men- t In the United States has given Her a new hert Is her drive to make japan "bone dry." HEIFERS DROP FIRST CALF According to Experiment Carried on at Maryland College Thirty Months Is Best Age. About thirty months was found to be the best age for Ayrshire heifers to drop their first calf, according to an experiment carried on at the Mary-land Agricultural college. If the calves were dropped six months ear-lier, the milk flow was lessened con-siderably, but if dropped six months later the decrease was slight. This will vary for. the breeds according to sire; the smaller the breed type, the shorter the time. Eekles of Minnesota found that this variation would be' three to five months which would bring the minimum age for Jerseys and Guernseys . about twenty-fiv- e months nnd for Holstelns, thirty months. This is for d animals. - Astonished Daddy. ' June Is having some difficulty In set-tling upon the proper title for her father. The other day she was play-ing with one of hln collara when she tore It.

':P PASTEURIZED CREAM IS AID It Yields More Uniform Article ef ' Butter and Helps to Improve Keeping Qualities. The relation of pasteurized cream to' butter Is now recognized as fol-lows: It yields a more uniform pro-duct, aids in producing a higher scor-ing butter, Improves its keeping qual-ities; avoids undesirable fermenta-tions and gives protection from dis-ease germs; overcomes questionable odors, increases value of skim milk and creates a steadier market. . The slight increase in cost of production, per pound, when butter Is made from posteurized cream, is more than over-come by the benefits derived from this process.
