TAYLOR It is important that dairy animals be properly marked for identifica- tion purposes, otherwise there is certain to be confusion on breeding | as well as registration records. Ear tattoos properly put in are most sat- isfactory identification marks, for they remain legible during the en- tire lifetime of the animal. These facts have been determined in studies at the New Jersey college of agriculture. The American Jersey cattle club | has required tattoo numbers registration for a number of years, | and beginning January 1, 1040, all | unregistered Brown Swiss animals must be tattooed before the applica- | tion or registration will be accept- ed. The objection to ear tags and number neck straps is that they are | sometimes lost, | In order to insure satisfactory re- | sults the following simple rules | should be considered: i The inside of the ear should be thoroughly cleaned of all dirt, wax and oil so that the tattoo ink will penetrate the punch marks. Soap and water may be used, provided the ear is wiped dry with a clean | cloth. A clean cloth soaked in gaso- | line or alcohol is very effective. In getting ready to tattoo, be sure the letters and numbers are placed in the marker right side up and in the correct order. First try the marker on a piece of cardboard to be sure. Place the mark in the area inside of the ear that is free from hair. Avoid crossing any large veins as a safeguard against excessive hemor- rhage that might cause the ink to wash out, resulting in failure. Be sure that the needle points are sharp and fine so that they will penetrate the ear properly. By placing one or two thicknesses of cardboard between the punch and the outside of the ear you can insure proper penetration. Apply a liberal application of ink inside of the ear | and work the ink into the small | holes with the forefinger after the for | Star Dust * Public Deb No, 1 % Garfield Lingers On % Golden Boy Holden proved himself a hero re- cently, and the cameras weren't grinding either. *‘‘The Hunch- was on location, and hundreds teenth century Paris.

They all recognized the problem of one-crop farms and were glad of a leader to change the practice of farmers in that neighborhood. The gentleman farmer was George | Washington and he started Fairfax county, just outside of Washington, on a crop-variation system that has existed to this day.
