The Importance of keepms; quiet liny suggestion or the dlseaM until the case Is thoroughly Investigated, was emphasiied by Dr. C. L. Havn.es, state veterlnnrian. It is urgent, he said, to learn the consignor of the animal to prevent spread of the disease. Kour recent scare In Oreiton proved false alarms, the veterinarian told the group, but in each case the animals in question were traced to the seller. If the alarm should get out "gyppo" cattle speculators would most likely lie low and continue to unload their stock with disastrous results to Oregon cattlemen. Other speakers at the meeting were Dr. Fred McKeniie, chairman of the department of animal hus bandry, OSC: Sherman Guttridge, president of the Oregon Cattle and Horse Raisers association: Q. L. Jameson, secretary-treasurer of the association and Dr. W. C. Weir, as sociate professor of animal hus bandry, OSC. Brand Laws The need for improved brand laws was brought out by Guttridge and Jameson and the hope for uniform Interstate brand and sanitary laws. The necessity of the outgoing in spection fee in tracing livestock thefts, opposition to the fee by some big meat packing companies, and problems of wild game elk In the north and birds In this area were points brought out by these men. Value of belonging to the state and national livestock association in combatting opposition of packers and sportsmen in handling these problems was discused and the executive board of the Klamath Cattlemen's association agreed to look into the matter or fees and procedure and advise the group. Dr. McKenzie spoke on phases of livestock production, the per cent considered a decent calf crop, ratio of bulls to cows, the year of Im portance in a calf's life, feeding and nutrition deficiencies.

The eventual effect on the rich Irrigated central farming valleys which produce nearly a third or the nation's fruit and vegetable pack was yet problematical. Al ready losses have been estimated In the millions from the current crop season. "It could rain from now on. but It wouldn't break the drought that's literally power over the dam," said an electric utility spokesman. - The mountain snowpack the 1 water reserve is gone. What's coming in now is just for current spending." To meet the emergency, the public utilities commission yesterday put teettf in its conservation program by appointing a power czar with wide powers to allocate Inadequate energy supplies. feed lots was explained by Dr. Weir. Symptoms indicating hoof and mouth disease were listed by Dr. Ilaynes, who named the most em phatic one as a peculiar mouth smacking noise made by the af fected cattle. Loss of appetite, lumps I' mouth, on tongue and feet, diffi culty of chewing and swullowing, thirst, lethargy and drooling, fol lowed by lameness are signs to watch out for, he said.
