Have you heard about the wireless
That's reached us from Siam
It's a call for Mr. Brodie '1
To help the "Great I Am."
The climate there is sultry
The rain is not our kind
Still the call comes clear and steady
Mr. Brodie come and grind.

Just buy a round trip ticket

We like you, Mr. Brodie
We like you mighty well
But when you leave old Clackamas

Now don't get all excited
At what we meant to say

LIVESTOCK OWNERS ARE
ASK FUND TO PREVENT
. TUBERCULAR CATTLE
MANY SCHOOLS
OVER COUNTY
CLOSE SOON
In order that tuberculosis-eradication
work may be continued, Secre
tary of Agriculture Wallace, at the
request of members of congress and
others interested in the livestock in
duatry, has asked that an emergency
fund amounting to $405,000 be includ
ed in the deficiency bill of the pres
ent congress, to be used in the pay
ment of, indemnities for tuberculosis
cattle. It is estimated by the Bu
reau of Animal Industry that this am
ount will be necessary to carry oh the
slaughtering of tuberculosis cattle un--tiy
June 30, the end of the present fis
cal year.
. 'For the present tfiscal year," says
the secretary, in requesting the defi
ciency appropriation, "$800,000 was
provided in., the agricultural appro
priation act for operating expenses in
the eradication of tuberculosis, and.
$680,000 for the payment of indem
nities for tuberculosis cattle slaugh
tered. On account of the number of
reacting animals found, the sum pro
vided for indemnities is practically
j exhausted.'
There remain sufficient funds to
carry on the operating expenses for
the remainder of the fiscal year, but,
because the fund provided for indem
nities is exhausted, it has been neces
sary to discontinue the testing of new
herds. If the emergency funds asked
by Secretary Wallace is passed In the
deficiency bill, the eradication work
can . continue without serious inter
ruption. "For the first 8 months, of the pres
ent fiscal year," the secretary con
tinues, "there were found by the tu
berculin test 32,424 tuberculosis cat
tle; whereas for the same months of
the- previous year there were found
only 18,273 reactors. This is not an
indication that tuberculosis is on th

"Another fact that shold be taken
into consideration is that the mark
et value of cattle has decreased to an
extraordinary degree, in fact the sal
vage received from the sales of tu
berculosis cattle was approximately
$12 per head less during these eight
months than during the previous fis
cal year, thus making it necessary
that the department pay a larger per
centage of indemnity than hereto
fore. "It is estimated that for the balance
