f No Cause for Alarm Here On Foot and Mouth Disease By Claude Steusloff There is no cause for alarm among stockmen concerning foot and mouth disease, now prevalent in Mexico, Dr. B. T. Simms, chief of the U.S. bureau of animal industry, told a Portland meet ing of veterinarians, stockmen, Wed 0 Years Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Sawyer, pictured at their home in Liberty road where they have lived since 1910. They were married in Ohio 60 years ago January 4. (Jesten-Miller studio) Aroused Veterans Demand Houses Be Taken From Mud City Manager J. L. Franzen, Mayor Robert L. Elfstrom, Engi neer J. H. Davis and the Salem housing authority, headed by W. J. Braun will confer shortly, probably Tuesday afternoon, to decide what can be done to get the vet- -erans colony on bourn iotn ajreet out of the mud. This was ordered by motion at the city council meeting Mon day night when the veterans, with Allan Barber as their spokesman, moved in on the council in force with a demand that action be taken. They were armed with a petition signed with some 265 names. They want paved streets, concrete sidewalks, a playground area for children and equipment. Suggestion that the conference be called was made by Mayor Elfstrom who conceded that "we have been a little bit careless." Motion that the mayor's sugges tion be adopted was made by Al derman Gille, who said he sym pathized with the veterans. "I was out there Saturday," said Gille, "and it looks like Hol ligan's pigpen." "A good many of the gravel walks the city put in are under mud now," said Barber. "Con crete walks are something we won't back down on. The area will still be muddy four or five months from now and after that it will be a dust bowl." Manager Franzen said some thing over $11,200 had been turned over to the city from the colony rentals, of which over $7000 had been applied to the streets, and over $4000 was on hand. Joe Hopkins, manager of the colony, said that in federal funds about $34,000 a year was available, which should bring a surplus of $8000 or $10,000 ap plicable to improvements.

Fort Marion built by the Spaniards at St. Angustine, Fla is said to have required 120 years to build. and officials but owners must be alert to the danger of infection. The disease may occur in this country at any time but it may not come from Mexico, since Belgium, England, France, Latin America and South America all are sources of infection. Special training has been giv en a corps of BAI men in diag nosis, disinfection and control of the disease so that it may be stamped out the moment it ap pears. A quarantine line has been set up extending from 300 miles south of the Texas border on the Gulf of Mexico side to 700 miles south of the border on the Pacific side. This line is be ing patrolled and the plan is to gradually push disease control south from there. No foot and mouth disease has occurred north of the quarantine line. Interest in the relation of un- dulant fever in humans to bru cellosis (contagious abortion) in dairy cattle has increased very rapidly in the past five years, Simms said in noting that the consuming public has the right to demand that their milk and meat be wholesome and free from disease. Dr. Ray Staub, Portland phy sician, pointed out that undulant fever is much more prevalent in humans than is generally re alized because the organism is difficult to detect in the. blood stream except in the febrile, or feverish, stage. He scored the "lack of enthusiam" of the med ical profession against the dis ease and stressed the necessity of more learning and experi mental research on the human element of the problem Before coming chief of the BAI, Simms was head of the veterinary department at Ore gon State college and did the early experimental work on bru- ftiTIT.illl.il liTi ill rrri BEFORE YOU BLOW YOUR OWN HORN too much, sonny; T'S BETTER TO PRACTICE BLOW- tNfirTWE OTHER Everyone speaks highly of our reliable service as well as our scientifically refined Mobilheat, the superior fuel for stove and furnace.

Simms said that most Oregon counties are now relatively free of infection and stated the need now is help to the herd owner whose cattle are clean so that he may keep out re-infection He noted that neighbor and com munity volunteer quarantines are more effective than compuL sory regulations. Beef cattle herds are not near ly so hazardous to human health in brucellosis as are dairy cattle, but they can be infected. Vac cination of calves has been done in beef herds with good results Ten U. S. veterinarians are ex pected to be assigned to eastern Oregon brucellosis work in the near future, according to Dr Sam B. Foster, in charge of BAI in Oregon. Discussion brought out control measures important in brucello sis, such as: A good job of disin fection after the piemises have been throughly cleaned are worth while, Dr. Foster stating Bailey's Herd Makes High Registration The herd of registered Jersey cattle owned by Floyd L. Bailey, Jefferson, is announced by the American Jersey Cattle club, from their offices in Columbus, Ohio, as having completed a year's work in official Herd Im provement Registry testing with an average production of 7551 pounds milk and 435 pounds butterfat per cow. The herd con tained an average of eight milk ing cows during the year. All tests on this herd were conducted by the Oregon State college and verified by The American Jersey Cattle club. In accomplishing this produc tion the Bailey herd has joined the select group of Jersey herds in which the cows have produc ed more than two times the amount of butterfat obtained from the average dairy cow in the United Slates. Returning From Lebanon Silverton Mrs. Clifton Dick erson plans to return home the last of this week from Lebanon, where she is with her daughter, Mrs. Al Crockett, and new grandson, David Lynn, for sev eral days. that disinfection was 75 percent of control and suggested a full paid county veterinarian to do the disinfecting. A partially in fected herd which necessitates the sale of cattle may be rear ranged to include sheep, swine, or young stock to hold up farm income. The so-called Dr. Hud delson's vaccine is still in the experimental stage. Both liquid and solid manure are dangerous if spread on grass lands, but heating in the manure pit will destroy most of the organisms. Heifer vaccination is valuable in problem herds to reduce the re infection. Vaccination of mature cows is the final need in case of continued trouble. I I T I I INSUIANCI I 111 I!
