Vaccinated Calves Vaccination of calves at the age of six to eight months gives them a substantial degree of protection against brucellosis.

Driving In Ceanertlcafy Connecticut has lak»n official cognizance of the menace of the driver who does potentially danger ous things--often because of faulty vision. Learning that 20 per cent of the state's drivers had been caus ing 80 per cent of the traffic accidents, Connecticut put its motorists on a "report-card" basis. Every traffic violation is entered op the driver's record in a master file. A minor violation may result in only a one-point black mark; drunken driving will bring 10 points. When a driver gets three points, he receives a warning letter; with five points he is summoned for a conference; and six points mean a formal hearing and often loss of his driving license One SMitaa, Please The time may not be so far distant when you'll be able to buy a suntan from a coin machine.
