'' Thursday, February 1C1S55 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THIRTEEN No TB Reactors Found Among Cows Tested in County No reactors were found in the 4,205 cattle tested for tu berculosis in 395 Jackson coun ty herds last year under a joint federal-state testing program, ac cording to M. E. Knickerbocker, chief of the animal industry di vision of the state department of agriculture. This record plaeed Jackson county in a list of 26 counties in which no bovine tuberculosis reactors were found in 1954, Knickerbocker said. For the en tire state; 80 reactors, or .038 per cent, were found in the 208, 732 cattle in 21,082 herds test ed. Knickerbocker noted that, while this is not a large number, it shows why Oregon continues the tuberculosis testing program under cooperative agreement with the federal government. One of Six Counties Jackson county is one of six counties in which reaccredita tion testing will be conducted during 1955 to determine wheth er the county will remain on a list of those which have been modified and accredited. This standing expired late last year for Jackson county. To be reaccredited, at least 10 per cent of the cattle in the county must be tested, and not more than five-tenths of one per cent of those tested may show in fection. If Jackson county meets this standard on the retesting program, it will be reaccredited for another three-year period.
