Dairy Cattle s Bang's Disease Warning From . By JEROME SHELDON Recent testing of dairy cattle in . Douglas County for Bang's disease has revealed a number of cows reacting to the teats, said said County Judge D. N. Busenhark. He issued a warn ing that persons who purchased dairy cows, outside the county should make sure that they are free of Bang's disease. "We have been reasonably clear Reaction To Tests Brings County Court of this disease for a number of yean in Douglas County," he said.

Short and Burke Street Jit DISC HARROWS FIELD CULTIVATORS POWER MOWERS TRACTORS Row Crop and Standard Tread Quick Handling Of Turkey Eggs Held Advisable Time that elapses between the nest and incubator IS highly im portant in hatching eggs, reminds Noel Bennion, O. S. C. extension poultry specialist. Hatchabillty, the poultry spe cialist explains, decreases gradu ally after eggs are stored a week or longer. After 14 days have passed, the reduction in hatch abillty is rapidly accelerated. Since hatching egg season Is at hand, Bennion suggests a method ical egg Catherine schedule as one method for increasing hatch ability. He says turkey eggs are better when gathered every hour; chicken eggs at least every two or three hours. Many dirtv and broken eggs are eliminated if such a schedule is followed, Bennion states. When dirty eggs are found, however, he suggests they be cleaned immedi ately rather than left to dry. Lotus Major for Acid Soils New Discovery in Forage; Flourishes Against Weeds U.S. Tops China For First Time In Soybean Crop CHAMPAIGN, 111., Feb. 7 im it. .it i fitiNseu inina lor ine ursi ume ast year as a soybean producer, Richard F. Uhlmann, president of the Chicago Board of Trade, said. Addressing a session of the an nual Farm and Home Week pro gram of the University of Illi nois, Uhlmann said the nation now produces more than a third of the world's soybean crop. American farmers first began showing serious interest in soy beans in i29. and now have al most 10,000.000 acres under cul tivation, Uhlmann said. "There was considerable worry at the beginning whether we would ever find markets for this new crop but 170,00,000 bushels were ground last year for valu able oil and meal," he added. "Re serves have been successfully consumed before the next crop was available. This proves the economic necessity to continue raising big crops." Ho said the soybean industry had benefitted largely from the large central exchanges where the crop is marketed. "A Legume for Acid Soils Lot us Uliginosus" is the title of a new experiment station bulletin Just off the press at Oregon Stte college. Telling the development story of Lotus major or big tit foil, as it it commonly called, the bulletin is the first that deals with this forage plant that is rapidly gaining favor where adapted. H. B. Howell, superintendent of the John Jacob Astor branch experiment station is author of the new bulletin, as most of the experimental work with this com bined hay and pasture plant has been done at that branch station and on logged off land in the coast range managed by Howell. The author cautions against con fusing Lotus major with its near relative, Lotus cornlculatus. The latter is a tap rooted plant' that thrives under drier conditions than major and stands colder winters. It is extensively grown in part of Southern Oregon and Califor nia. Long life, ability to thrive in acid soils, tolerance of rather ex tensive winter flooding and abili ty to compete with such weeds as bracken fern are characteristics of big trefoil. These have brought it into prominence along the Ore gon coast and in parts of the Willamette vallev, particularly In Clackamas county where rainfall conditions seem to suit it. Both varieties of Lotus major ar readily eaten by all classes of livestock as pasture, silage or hay, Howell reports. Stock seem to have tome preference In the pas ture stage for th smooth type that was grown originally on the branch station. Instances of Lotus major stands surviving three to four months flooding In the dormant season are cited in the buleltin which in c 1 u de s recommendations on seeding and use of the crop.

The disease apparently has ap peared even in cattle certified as clean, although the testing has been limited in these other coun ties. Because the disease Is very contagious, the cows probably have become Infected since their last tests. All cows must be tested be fore they are offered for sale, Judge Busenhark said. There would be danger of in fected cows spreading the disease to healthy herds in this county, the Judge pointed out. All cows showing a reaction to the tests must be slaughtered.
