(Prepared by the United State! Department of Agriculture.) The general sentiment of breeders of cattle regarding tuberculosis eradi cation, expressed in reports received by the United States Department of Agriculture, Is that efforts should be directed toward wiping out the disease from grade as well as from purebred herds. The live stock iaen feel that animals used for beef production, as well as those kept for dairy purposes, and single cows owned by families, as well are large herds, should be in cluded in the clean-up. There Is always a chance that one diseased animal in a community may contaminate others. It may come In contact with them at fence lines and by going to other farms; or the dis ease may be spread by its drinking at running streams passing through neighboring pastures. The feeling ex pressed also is that the disease cannot be kept under control, much less eradi cated, if these animals are omitted In the clean-up of any territory. Whole areas, therefore, like townships and counties, should be cleaned up rather than scattered herds, if the work Is to I r—— ———————— Officially Accredited as Free From Tuberculosis. be of permanent value and handled in the most economical way. By this plan and constant vigilance on the part of stock owners to keep the areas free from further contamination, tubercu losis-free territories can gradually be extended and the disease not only con trolled but progress made In the war to exterminate it. CHECK BOVINE TUBERCULOSIS Use of Modern Scientific Method* Have Made It Possible to Clean Up Rapidly. Less than ten years ago, says the United States Department of Agricul ture, the eradication of bovine tuber culosis seemed a staggering undertak ing. One reason that rapid progress seemed impossible was that the sub cutaneous-test method ordinarily used was slow. But since that time the use of other methods that are much more rapid, the ophthalmic and the Intradermlc, has made it possible to clean up areas as large as counties in a few weeks with a relatively small force. The only possible way to erad icate tuberculosis in the light of our present knowledge Is to find the dis eased animals and properly dispose of them more rapidly than the disease can be spread; that Is the big prob lem, and It means testing great num bers of animals. SORE EYES IRRITATE LAMBS Complaint More Common Than For merly and Caused by Breeder* Putting Wool on Faces. Complaint of sore eyes in young lambs Is more common than It used to be. This Is because breeders have put more wool on the faces of the sheep. When a young lamb manifests sore eyes the first thing to be looked for »s the mechanical Irritation of hairs due to an Inturned eyelid. If this condition Is not found then It is time enough to put on boric acid. SELF-FEEDER WILL AID PIGS Give* Rapid Gain* lo Young Anlmala Which Arc Being Prepared for Marketing. The self-feeder will not save all the labor and will not work to advantage on all classes of hogs, but It does give rapid gains to young pigs which are being prepared for market. It also gets old sows who have Just weaned tlielr pigs ready for market quicker. Advantages of Swine. A comparison of some of the fea tures of the various farm anlmala sliow that the hog has the advantage In many ways. While the annual In crease from cattle and horses runs from 60 to 100 per cent, the Increase from hogs Is 500 to more than l,oo< per cent. The sow produces two lit ters per year which puts her far It the lead In prolificacy among fart animals. Pigs make about 28 point, of gain from each 100 pounds of lv given. ROAD RESEARCH INVESTIGATIONS OF DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE K Macadam Road in Virginia. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) The road research investigations of the bureau of public roads of the Unit ed States Department of Agriculture at the Arlington experiment station are now well under way. A new portable road-impact machine has been received and is giving most satisfactory results in testing tie series of road slabs placed earlier in the season. This series consists of 120 concrete slabs ranging from four, to ten inches in thickness and from lean to rich mixtures. Some of the slabs are reinforced and others have a two-lnch Topeka top. There are at least two slabs of each type of con -6 traction, one on a dry subgrade and another surrounded by ditches, which are kept flooded. What the Machine Does. Briefly the new machine consists of a typical truck wheel with spring and variable load above it, which is raised and allowed to fall on the slab from any desired height by means of an elec trically-driven cam. Recording devices measure the deceleration or rate at which the wheel is brought to rest after coming in contact with the slab, the deflection of the slab at a number of points on a line across the slab, set tlement of the slab into the subgrade, permanent set of the slab and the max imum instantaneous fiber rtress at the point where the blow Is struck. On the first slab te. ted the various recording devices checked each other with surprising closeness. Tor a series of blow* varying slightly in intensity, curves for the fiber stress, decelera tion and deflection showed correspond ing variations and gave assurance as to the accuracy of the new methods of measuring. Some Interesting informa tion as to the variation of the support offered the slab by the subgrade under a series of varying blows is being se cured. New Light on Impact. With the Information and experience gained from last year’s experiments on impact making possible refinements In the new tests, it is thought that an TIMBER SALE SHOULD BE ARRANGED AHEAD Quick Action Needed to Prevent Deterioration. Logs and Other Rough Material Should Not Be Allowed to Remain Long on Ground After Cutting— Ends Should Be Painted. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) To prevent the deterioration of felled timber farmers and owners of woodlands should allow as little delay as possible between the cutting of the tree and Its manufacture into rough products, advises the forest service of the United States Department of Agriculture. This means that sales should be arranged for prior to begin ning cutting. It Is often necessary or desirable, however, to put off the de livery of logs, bolts, or poles until some months after cutting, either to allow them to season or because a good sale cannot be arranged nt once. Much of the weight of freshly-cut tim ber Is due to the water It contains, and a few months’ seasoning will often reduce this to a marked degree, the amount of reduction depending, of course, on the climate, the weather, and the exposure to sun and air. At the same time, unless preventive measures are taken the products are sure to deteriorate through decay, in sect attack, checking, or some other agency. Logs and other round timber shculd never be allowed to remain long in the woods after cutting. As soon a* possible they should be taken to a dry, well-aired, and unshaded area and placed on skids well off the ground; otherwise the opposite ex treme should be attempted—keeping the timber in water. Within a few days after the trees are felled the bark should be removed from poles,, posts, and other material whfc’a will not be injured by checking or season cracks. The ends of the logs should he coated with paint, creosote, or tar. This will aid In preventing decay and keep the logs from checking badly. Poles should be peeled and hauled or dragged to a place free from de bris or rank vegetation and freely ex posed to the sun and wind. When tie* are cut, it Is usually cheapest and most desirable to haul them, at any analysis of tbe data when all of the slabs are tested to destruction will throw a great deal of new light on truck Impact on rigid pavements. The circular track for the testing of asphaltic concrete to determine the cause of waving is now about ready for the automatically controlled truck traffic. Twenty-seven sections of as phaltlc concrete of various mixtures t ive been laid on a cement base, the coarse aggregate of the bituminous mixes ranging from 40 to 70 per cent, with variations in the grading of the finer material. The amount of asphalt varies from 5.0 to 7.0 per cent and has a penetration value of from 45 to 85. In line with the bureau’s policy of cheapening the cost of road construe tlon by the use of local material wher ever possible, a circular track for a wear test on concrete has been com pleted. Sixty-one sections of concrete have been placed. The aggregates used vary in kind and quality, ranging from hard to soft, and there is variation In the amount of mixing water and time of mixing. In order to eliminate the effect of differences in the subgrade the sections are of reinforced T-beare construction, the slab being 4 feet wide, 10 inches deep, with the T-bean in the middle of the slab. The traffic test on these sections will begin soon and the load on the pavement will be made to represent the rubber-tired rear wheel of a 3% or 5-ton truck moving at a speed of 15 to 20 miles per hour. Specimens of concrete foi beam strength and compression tests have been made from each mix and are being cured under the same condi tions as the corresponding sections. Change in Specifications. Results of this wear test, represent ing modern traffic conditions, togethei with the beam strength and compres sion tests which will be made for this Investigation and on a similar set made in connection with the Impact Investigation and w’hlch will serve to tie the two together, will furnish a sound basis for the consideration of suggested changes in specifications foi concrete road aggregates. convenient time without regard to seasoning, directly to the railway, and pile them according to the specifica tions furnished by the tie buyer. Cordwood should be stacked in loos< piles in a sunny, well-aired, and well drained place free from rank vegeta tion. Two sticks on the ground run ning the length of the pile will keej It from contact with the soil and thus prevent decay in the lower layers.
