Georgia's Courts
Need Simplifying
Georgia’s legal system is
good but behind the times,
Judge Robert Hall of the Geor
gia Court of Appeals, told an
Emory University audience.
One of his suggestions is a
single, unified judicial system
to replace the confusing multi
plicity of courts and jurisdic
tions now existing.

Juniors Do College
Level Work at Emory
Bright Georgia High .school
juniors can do good work: at
the college level. Sixteen
“Dean’s Scholars” proved it at
Emory University this past
summer where they made good
records in college classes. The
specially selected high school
students were allowed to take
advanced courses for mental
stimulation.

The alarming thing about the
mastitis problem in dairy cattle
today is that some farmers seem
to be developing a “live with it”
attitude toward it.
Mastitis now drains $250 mil
lion a year out of the pockets of
cattle owners—a staggering sum!
A three-part program, which
recognizes the complicated na
ture of mastitis could do a lot
toward reducing these losses.
The program consists of (1)
prevention, (2) diagnosis, (3)
treatment.
The preventive phase of the
program should include a review
of housing, milking equipment,
sanitation and milking practices
at regular intervals. The in
spection should be made by a
team including, a qualified milk
ing machine service man and a
veterinarian.
Mastitis now costs herd
owners $250 million a year.
The diagnosis part of the pro
gram is the "watch dog” which
provides methods for detecting
mastitis early. The plan might
include a screening test of all
cows in the milking line once a
month. Cows showing trouble
should be segregated. A veteri
narian can conduct diagnostic
tests which will spot the exact
Organism and enable him to set
up proper treatment.
In the treatment phase of the
program it is well to recognize
that there is no easy "sure shot”
remedy for mastitis. Since there
are so many organisms which can
cause the disease, successful treat
ment depends on properly deter
mining the treatment for tne
organism responsible. This is the
reason it is wise to leave the
decision on how to treat mastitis
to a veterinarian. He knows the
organisms Ho knows what to do.
Success in controlling mastitis
depends on a vigorous and con
tinuous program, but diligence
will pay off in a reduction of the
heavy losses this problem now
I causes.
