Bang's Disease Control Gain In Coos During Past Year, State Reports Fir Peeler Logs Climb Back Up Coos county m ade a substantial gain last year in its Bang’s disease eradication program , cutting the incidence of Price Ladder this disease alm ost in two from the 1950 figure, the State D epartm ent of A griculture said today During 1951, Bang’s tests made in Coos county numbered 28,052, which is the highest number of an imals tested here in the last five years and probably sets an a ll- time record. Exactly two per cent of the animals tested were reactors. While this percentage finds Coos county 29th on the 1951 percentage ratings of the 36 counties in Ore gon, I t is more significant than this standing would indicate. This is w hy: In 1950, 3.83 per cent reactors were found in the 23,148 tests made here; in both 1948 and 1949, the percentage of reactors stood at 5.3 per cent (18,- 047 tests iq 1948 and 27,975 tests in 1949); and in 1947, 3.3 per cent reactors were found in 15,- 951 Coos animals tested. These figures come from M. E. Knickerbocker, chief of the d iv i sion of animal industry of the state department of agriculture. (The department recently reported that for the state of Oregon the Bang's reactors in 1951 ran 1.23 per cent In the 285,714 head of cattle test ed.) Department officials point out I that the effectiveness of the pro- ! gram in Coos county results from the cooperative effort of all agen cies concerned, spark-plugged by the active attention being given by the Coos county court. The place ment by the federal bureau of animal industry of Dr. Pierre P. Souaillard in Coos county to super vise the program as the local repre sentative of the official agencies and reporting directly to the coun ty court all problems as they arise has been and is most helpful. The fine cooperation of Coos county officials together w ith the support of the dairymen has real ly given purpose and impetus to Brucellosis control in the area. The state officials expressed *hope that Coos county could soon qualify for modified certified brucellosis free area status. • • Douglas fir peeler logs climbed up to the ceiling price for all grades in the Eugene area during the week ending M arch 8.

Speech Contest Report Given on all makes S e n tin e l So many watjs to brighten LENTEN MEALS with Employment Levels During February The seasonal slump in employ- fen t in Cbos and Curry counties was reached the forepart of Feb ruary. Since that time employ ment throughout the area has gradually increased. The local employment office has found that few workers are totally separated from an employer which indicates a very small pool of available manpower for the months ahead. Some recruitment in other areas has been necessary already to f i l l skilled jobs where local ap plicants were not available. It is estimated that 950 workers were s till w ithout work at the end of the month compared to 1260 in January. O f these 200 were wom en, 25 per cent of which expect to be recalled to a woodworking plant as soon as strategic materials be come available. Very few job op portunities have been available for women except those skilled in of fice occupations. \ More and more employers are h iring tested applicants through the Oregon State Employment Service, i f you have not taken advantage of these free services investigate them! • • PAGE SAFEWAY 32c
