Mr. Shrock then took up the herds of Tillamook Countv, where a testing association exists. He complimented the members highly but proceeded to show how the work should progress. Testing costs $1 per cow. If each owner would eliminate the five lowest testing cows and add five averaging as highly as the rest of the herd, he would add from $3 to $6 net per cow for the entire herd profit. If he could add five is good as his best five, the profits would be proportionally higher. Testing is the only scientific and husincslike method of corducting a dairy herd today. He urged an exten sion of the work. An excellent general discussion fol lowed, in which many took part, ask ing questions and telling their own ex periences. It was suggested that it might be well to make all tests public hereafter, and ¡while all the speakers appeared to believe this would be de sirable, it was feared that some mem bers might object to the publicity. Following the discussion, Dr. W. H. Lytle, state veteriiiarian, read a paper dealing with "Contagious Abortion.” Dr. Lytle discussed the extent of the disease and touched on the ways in which the disease could be transmitted. A tentative cure has been discovered i by the Vermont Experiment Station in Methyline Blue, a refined disinfect ant. This had been tried out extensive ly in experiment stations. It had been found to do no harm to cattle and ap parently ha 1 reduced the disease to a minimum where used It cun be mixed with grain or injected, but the best method of administering is in capsule form. Dr. Lytle stated that the drug could be purchased at the wholesale drug concerns at $2.50 a pound. In the discussion which followed, some of the members claimed that they had had difficulty in getting the drug, and that they had been forced to pay much more for it.
