Sounds like science-fiction at this point, but it has possibilities for the future, says Roy Nelson, admini strator of the Livestock Divi sion of the Oregon Depart ment of Agriculture on re turning from the Western States Brand Conference the last of October at Sparks, Nevada Commenting further on the electronic route for livestock identification. Nelson noted that the Boeing Company, the developer of this method, told the conference it is planned to have it perfected enough by February, 1973. to demon strate its use. At present it has reached the stage of an electronic reader capable of scanning from a distance of from five to 10 feet and a small metal plate with COMPLETE JANITORIAL SERVICE Commercial & Domestic Carpet and upholstery cleaning Insurance Claims Floor Waxing Wall & Window Washing Free estimates GORDON KEOWN AND SONS In Heppner Call CASE FURNITURE 676-9432 For Information and Appointments identifying numbers that could include county, state and the owner's brand for implanting under the skin of an animal. It now remains for Boeing to coat this plate with a material that will not be rejected by the animal and that will prevent its slipping under the skin of the animal. In addition to being a means of positive identification of the animal, use of such a tag would eliminate any possi bility of attempts to alter a brand. Other items on the agenda for the conference, which was also attended by the assistant administrator of the Livestock Division. Gene Kunkle. in cluded the use of health certificates for cattle moving between states, brand in spection of horses and use of a common form for brand inspection certificates by states. Nelson reported mat more states are adopting the pro posed uniform brand in spection form, which was requested by the American National Cattlemen's Association. In a discussion of brand inspection for horses -- Oregon is the only Pacific Coast state presently enforcing brand inspection for horses Nevada representatives at the conference stressed the importance of such a program and pointed to the growing horse population in many states Other states in the conference besides Nevada and Oregon are Washington, Idaho.
