White County has again been
put on the list of counties that are
free from bovine tuberculosis. Bo
vine tuberculosis is T 15 . of cattle.
It has. been proven many times
that children who are fed on milk
from cows sick with tuberculosis,
have contracted that dread disease.
Therefore, the U. S. Dept. ofAgri
cu 11nre is steadily working on the
eradication of bovine T. B., just
as tiie cattle tick was destroyad.
Three years ago ever head of
cattle in this county was tested for
T. 15 . In order to stay on the cer¬
tified list a certain per cent of the
cattle must be tested every three
years, and be found to be free of
the disease. During the past week
Dr. C. A. Greenig, with the U. S.
Department of Agriculture, ac¬
companied by Special County
Agent Cooper Morcock have test¬
ed t"i cattle scattered about White
county. Of this number not one
was found that had T. B, so White
county has again been placed on
ihe accredited list.

W e’ve never seen such an ad, either. But if other
prices had gone down with the same consistency and
at the same rate as the cost of electric lighting in your"
home, such an advertisement would not be extraor¬
dinary today. Prices would he just that low.
For, since 1913, THE COST OF ELECTRIC
LIGHTING IN THE HOME HAS BEEN RE¬
DUCED 57 PER CENT.
If steak of the sirloin variety, which was’selling for
an average of 25 cents a pound hack in 1913, milk,
bread, ham and potatoes had gone down as much,
their prices today would be just about as you see
them listed in our imaginary advertisement.
The greatly reduced cost of lighting has been due
to two things: an increase of 71.8 per cent in the
efficiency of electric lamps (we admit you can’t do
much to improve the efficiency of a sirloin steak)
and A DECREASE OF 26.3 PER CENT IN THE
COST OF YOUR ELECTRIC
SERVICE.
While the cost of the commodities
displayed above, as well as the gen¬
eral cost of living, is still far ABOVE
the prices of 1913, the cost of electric
service is far BELOW what it was in
pre-war days, one of the very, very
few necessities of life about which
that can be said.
This chart shows graphically Electric service is the outstanding
the comparative trends taken bargain in that’s filled with
since 1913 by the general a year
electric cost of living service and in the homes cost of bargains!
