No, because that is guessing, nothing else. Pin yourself down to a store that sells de pendable shoes.

Of this number, there are undoubtedly ore per cent infected with tuberculosis and these become a menace to other cattle, and to the people, especially ! children, who use milK. The veterinarian sent to have ; charge of the work will probably be in the county fully 8 months. He will I inspect and test every head of cattle i in the county. Where a cow is found to be infected, she is killed. The State and Federal then pay the owner two-thirds of the appraised value not exceeding $50 for grade animal, nor $100 for pure bred. The owner, veterinarian and an outside third person compose the appraisal 220 board as to value of cow. As stated, this tuberculosis erad ication work is in co-operation with the United States Bureau of Animal Industry. It is" now unlawful for sny cattle bulls, oxen, steers, cows, heifers, calves or yearlings to be driven, transported or allowed to say into Richmond county, except upon written permission from a duly authorized quarantine inspector un less such cattle come from a "free" county. Scotland, Anson, and Stanly have had this tubercular work, and are therefore "free" counties; parts of Moore are "free", the work now being in progress in that county. It is likely that Montgomery will follow Richmond's lead and have a similar campaign in the early fall; this, then, would make these fine neighboring counties free of tubercular cattle, and again show the State that we lead others follow.
