were among hi(h points brouthl out
at the Klamath ( attlfmrn associa
tlon mretint Wednesday.
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.
Drastic Power
Cuts Slated
SAN FRANCISCO, March 18 UP)
Northern California struggled to
pare power .consumption one-fifth
today under drastic new conserva
tion regulations set up as result of
the drought emergency.
But even as new rains came to
drought - sapped areas, warnings
were repeated that the unpre
cedented drought and power crisis
would not abate this year or possibly
until 1950.
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.
The chance that garbage dumped
off the coast might bring in the
disease, is being investigated, the
veterinarian said, also incoming
produce from south of the California
border. Flax fiber, which was in
vestigated and found free of the
virus.
Election or officers was eliminated
to give the full time to the speakers,
with the group agreeing to keep
the same officers for another year.
Henry Gerber is president of the
Klamath Cattlemen's association:
Jack Marshall, vice president, and
Jim Ehngs Is now secretary In place
of C. A. Henderson, who has re
signed due to too heavy a schedule.
The executive board Includes E. A.
Geary, J. L. Pope. William Kitt
redge. Ted Hyde. Dave Liskey and
E. J. Floyd.
Farmers Alert
For Crickets
CORVALL1S. March 18 i.4Wl'lio
Impending birth of millions of de
structive mormon crickets has Kttsl
em Oregon farmers on the alert.
The crickets, which last spring
threatened rich wheat and farm
land, are beginning to hutch now.

that the Insects will Infest 700
square miles of the Columbia river
basin 300 miles more than the area
attacked a year ago.
Ranchers, forewarned this sea
son, are arranging to spread butt
In advance. Robert W. Kvery, en
tomologist at Oregon State college
extension here, said baiting is the
best control.
Polson-spreuding pliuti's will be
sent out later should crickets in
some areas survive the baiting.
