OGDENSBURG (N. Y.) JOURNAL THURSDAY, MARCH 10, 1949 PAGE THIRTEEN ace Temporary Help Journal Washington Bureau Washington — Civil Service Commission has set June 30 as the deadline for replacing all war-service and other tempor- ary government workers with permanent, Civil Service ap- pointees. Approximately 350,000 tem- porary employes remain on the federal payroll, out of a current total of around 2,100,000. Only around 1,900,000 of these ar e employed within the con- tinental limits of the United States, the. rest in territories or occupation zones overseas. A spokesman for the commis- sion said the administration is making a \major effort\ • to clean up the remaining cases of temporary helpers, hired during the war emergency when all permanent Civil Service exam- inations were halted. In some instances, however, the commission has been unable •to find \ suitable replacements. These include: 1—Some job categories, not- ably stenographers and typists, where examinations have not produced enough \eligibles\ to oust the war-service employes. A spokesman said the govern- ment could up to work imme- diately several thousand addi- tional clerical-stenographic type employes. Begorra, a Shamrock With Vitamins business schools claim they could place ten times as many workers with the govern- ment or private industry as the number of applicants they are getting for stenographic train- ing. 2—A. few \rare jobs\ in the federal service, such as clinical assistants in leper colonies, and Hindti interpreters.

Daniel's Pharmacy was estab- lished in 1876 by the late W, A. Daniels. The first location was two doors north of the St. Law- rence Garage. After fire destroy- ed that building, the pharmacy was set up the second time in the Clark House store*, then across the street on the farmer Wilson lot. Finally Daniels built, the nor'.h half of what was then known as the Union Block, the south half was built by William and John Marshall; now owned by Ernest J. LaComb. Previous to Daniels setting up-his own business he was employed as chemist for the H. D. Thatcher firm of Potsdam, manufacturers of butter color. Thatcher pro- posed the use of the milk bottle for every day throughout the country. Daniels married Miss Eliza- beth Lovegrove, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Reuben Lovegrove of Madrid in 1896. Three sons were biirn to the union, Charles E., pharmacist, with the Kinney Drug Company for many years and who passed away in 1945 in Potsdam; Fred A., an account- ant! living in Bridgeport, Conr and Rurt, also a pharmacist, who has been with the firm since 1308 and is now proprietor. Theii mother died in 1888. Daniels married again in 1892, Miss Elizabeth Hobkirk, daugh- ter of Mr. and Mrs. Adam Hob- kirk of Waddington, who with Bmrt makes her home on Clin- ton St. in the original Daniels' home.

County Disease Control Group Revises Mange Program The newly formed St. Law- rence County Disease Control Committee made up of members of the Agricultural Committee of the Board of Supervisors, St. Lawrence County Veterinary So- ciety, and Farm Bureau Dairy Commodity Commission recent- ly to review the present mange program. This committee was formed to co-ordinate the activities of all agencies working on dairy cattle diseases and to study the disease problems affecting the dairy in- dustry in St. Lawrence County. ^ At the committee meeting, pre- sided over by Chairman Murray Fisher, Madrid, the mange pro- gram was discussed. A review of the work showed that this year 384 herds have requested sprayings under the County Mange Program. Thus far, 185 herds have had the two required sprayings, 14l have had one spraying, and 58 herds are still without any sprayings. The commitete, because of the large number of requests for sprayings accomplished. Funds for the program at the beginning of the year were appropriated by the Board of Supervisors. Addi- tional funds amounting to $1500 were recently appropriated to continue to carry on the mange program. However, because of the additional number of re- quests there was still a need for a greater amount. As a result the committee de- cided there were three alterna- tives to follow which were: 1-. — Ask for additional appropriation from the board of supervisors; 2—Make an additional charge to darymen of 10c per animal per spray to pay for the cost of ma- terials; 3—Drop the program be- cause of lack of funds to carry on. I After considerable discussion, the committee decided to adopt the following program for all dairymen who wish to sign up in the County Mange Program effective March 7. That in view of the present financial condi- tion of the mange fund an ad- ditional charge of 10c per animal for each spraying will be charged all dairymen under the County Mange Program. This will mean a charge of $7.00. per 20 cows instead of the previous rate of $5.00 for 20 cows for each spray- ing. Any dairymen who signed up in the program prior to Mar. 7 will have his herd treated at the rate of $5.00 per 20 animals. Local veterinarians who were paid a small fee for making diag- noses of the disease offered to donate their services in order to continue the program. The veterinarians on the committee who represent the local veterin- ary society agreed that they did not wish to see the program drop- j ped, therefore, they will- continue to make inspections but will not be reimbursed through county funds. The mange program will be carried on through the same channels as before with the vet- erinarians making the diagnoses, agreements being signed by the dairymen, and the official spray- ers being notified by Robert Becker, clerk of the board of supervisors. The disease control committee als.o approved two new spray outfits so as to give better and quicker service to dairymen whose herds are infected with mange. ' Members present at the meet- ing included Murray Fisher, Madrid: Lee Akins, Lisbon; Leonard Ells, Hermon; Leon 'Raven, Gouverneur and Louis Paddock, Hammond, are pre- senting the agricultural comnftt- tee of the.board of supervisors; Dr. R. L. Grace, Potsdam; Dr. M. J. Cerosaletti, Madrid; and Dr. E. A. Conklin, Gouverneur, representing the veterinary so- ciety ; and Henry Smith, Gouver- neur, representing the Farm Bureau Dairy Committee. Also present were Dr. Don Bixby, Norfolk, and Dr. Grant, Kaley, Gouverneur, state veterinarians; Harry Tiernan, Norfolk, chair- man of the board of supervisors; Robert Becker, clerk of the board of supervisors and William Pendergast, County Agricultural Agent. Fight On Sea Lamprey Asked Washington— (AP)—G rut Lakes fishermen are asking the help of Congress in fighting the sea lamprey, which they say is killing fish in the lakes. The problem, however, is find- ing a weapon, the house mer- chant marine committee wail told yesterday. F. A. Westerman, chief of the fish ^ division of the Michigan! Conservation Department said that \No one as yet has any practical suggestion to provide adequate control.\ He and Claude Ver Duin of Grand Haven, Mich., secretary of the Michigan Fish Producers Association, asked that the Fed- eral government move fast to see what can be done to fight the lamprey. A dead lamprey, snake - like and about 15 inches long, was presented for committee inspec- tion. Ver Duin explained that the lamprey attaches itself to a fish, especially large lake trout, and burrows into its side to suck th« blood.
