MASTITIS TESTING WILL CEASE JANUARY 1ST. Dairymen interested in testing their cattle for mastitis are arrang- ing for testing for the _ presence of this disease. Word has just been received at the county agent’s office to the effect that the federal test- ing program for mastitis will be dis- continued January 1, 1936. It to highly important to have ap praisals and branding completed by that time, according to advice re ceived from the county agent, which means that the test should be com pleted before December is too far ad vanced. Mastitis is a disease of the udders of dairy cattle, and under the program of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the farmers are to be reimbursed for the slaughter of cat tle found to be carrying the disease. The plan to handled upon a basto similar to the Bang’s disease project, and dairymen interested in the re moval of such cattle from their herds should immediately make application to the county agent’s office where arrangements will be made for the Sweet Clover Hay Rated test to be handled by federal veter High in Minnesota Tests inarians now working in Umatilla Steers will fatten practically as well on sweet clover hay as on alfalfa of County. similar quality, according to Minnesota experiment station trials recently com HERALD WANT ADS PAY pleted. Other university farm trials showed that the two kinds of hay USE THEMl were about equal also for winter beef cows and heifers. Trials have given like results with lambs. Cutting the cured sweet clover with an ensilage cutter wns found advis able for cattle feeding but there was no apparent advantage In cutting It for fattening lambs. Fine grinding of roughage makes the feed too expen sive for cattle. Cut corn fodder also was found a fairly satisfactory roughage for dry beef cows and heifers, when fed In limited quantities with corn silage and cut sweet clover hay and when fed with shelled corn to fattening lambs. The heifers'lost some flesh on a ration of roughage only, and it was found necessary to add a little grain to keep them gaining.

Many farmers damage their pastures by turning stock on them during the early days of spring. The ground Is usually soft and tramp ing damages the planta The worst damage, however, comes through close grazing of the young plants before they have a chance to get started. Plants require a reasonable top growth in order that their roots become firmly established. The young, tender grass of early spring does not have as much nutritive value as it will have a few weeks later. It to beet for the live stock and much the best for pastures if they are given a chance to get a good start.
