"We wisli every farm bureau 

 member could have been present to 

 .get the first-hand information about 

 the I. .\. A. legislative program be 

 cause it is really a platform of tr<- 

 mendous importance tr> Illinois agri

Hovine tuberculosis, that dreaded 

 disease which lurks in apparently 

 healthy cows and creeps into bon*'s 

 of mtanls. causing human tuber- 

 culosis of the bone, was the tirst 

 one of the three planks taken up j 

 by the farm bureau officers. Their j 

 attitude on this great health ques- 

 tion was rellicted powerfully in the; 

 following resolution: | 



The Itesolution ! 



"We, the president.s and repre- ■ 

 sentatives of the Kami Bureau of j 

 Illinois, assembled at Springfleld. | 

 .March 17, 1'J25, recognizing in the | 

 tuberculosis eradication program of | 

 the stale and nation the economic . 

 welfare of the live stock farmer 

 and the protection of the lite of 

 the public and believing that more 

 stringent laws are necessary to 

 greater efficiency and economy in 

 eradication work, hereby endorse. ; 

 recommend and respectfully urge 

 members of the legislature and the; 

 Covernor to write into the laws of; 

 the stale Tice Bill No. 176; and we i 

 further recommend and urge that 

 adequate appropriation be provided 

 to elTectively carry on Ibe eradica- 

 tion work in Illinois." j
