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.
