Fight on Cattle
Disease is Told
to the Farmers
Duncan Marshall Inscribes Canadian
Measures Dan Ifildebrand
Again President.
Ducan Marshal!, agricultural ad
ministrator of Ontario, ted J Nebraska
livestock breeders Thursday at Lin
coln how the fight on catle diseases
in Canada was progressing. lie scid
Canada was establishing disease free
areas and any steefcman in those
areas who found a diseased animal
in his herd was compensated by the
j-overr.ment when that animal was
slaughtered.
"This," he said, "is just one of the
things that a government can do for
its farmers. We kroiv the grade cat
tle producer cannot possibly pay for
the slaughter of a whole herd of his
cattle if they arc; found, thru r.o fault
of his own, to be diseased." lie said
the department of agriculture in Ca
nada was trojrijr about handling re
search on Band's disease very slowly
.r.d delibcratly, because he and other
-jTicials were satisfied tbat the pres
ent testing for the disease was whol
ly inaccurate.
Marshall advised breeders how
they could protect their cattle from
ice in the winter, and advised against
letting the herd go without individual
attention to each animal. Tests for
tuberculosis in Canada, he said, were
perfectly accurate and that this dis
ease was becoming less of a menace
to feeders ar.d dairymen alike.
IVof. II. J. CJramlich of the agri
cultural college toid livcsto-jk breed
ers "to get ready for the worst, you
never know when it is going to come."
He rdvecatel extensive raising- of
r.orgums and other fodders for silage,
r.- that when the drouth seasons hit
there will not Le the great losses
cattlemen experienced in 1934. Jlle
told them a trcr.ch silo was an assur
ance against drouth and feed short
age, r.nd predicted that improved
trench silos would be on nearly every
farm in the next twenty-five years.
Members of the Livestock Associa
tion again chose Dan Hildebrand of
Seward as their president. Mr. Ililde-
brand' P-n-r.t livestock man in
the sale, has been president of the a
sociation for over ten years. W. W.
Derrick of Lincoln was re-elected
treasurer and l'rofcr.scr Cramiich;
secretary. Nearly 200 attended.
Seed Corn Shortage.
The Nebraska farmers face a
serious seed ccrn shortage next spring
was recognized by the Crop Growers
association in ils closing session. The
group adopted a resolution asking
that the college of agriculture call
atcntion of all farmers to the situa
tion and advise as to the proper
lestinir practices and assistance in
securing supplies of adapted ceed.
Reports indicate that in some co
unties; there is still in storage a con
siderable amount of 1D32-S3 ccrn,
much of which should make satis
iactoiy seed. In certain counties there
appears to be sulticent old corn on
hand to plant as much as 50 per cent
of the normal acreage. This varies
pparcr.My from a complete failure
in certain areas to a.s high as HQ per
cent satisfactory for seed in other
arecs.
