Cascade was the first county to take this action. Ninety-one per cent of the Lewis and Clark county farmers and ranchers have signed a petition to have their livestock tested and vaccinated for brucellosis. Only 75 per cent would have been needed to go ahead with the work. Public laymen and veterinarians do the testing and vaccinating of livestock at no cost to the stockmen. All cattle found infected with the disease will be eliminated, Vaughn said.

After the county is cleaned up no cattle will be admitted unless first tested. Young replacement heifers will also be vaccinated. Volunteers who have worked on the project control area are Dick Mosher of Augusta, president of the Tri-County Livestock association; Tom Pettapiece, Ulric LaChapelle, Leo Zimmer and Ken Gourley of the Augusta area; Dave Cochran of Nelson, and Jim Glosser of Austin. Brucellosis in cattle is caused by the same germ that causes undu-lant fever in man and the disease may be contracted both by handling animals or drinking milk, Vaughn said.
