Three members of the College
of Veterinary Medicine will parti-
pate in out-of-town meetings
!his week.
Dr. J. C. Ramge, associate pro-
|bssor of veterinary medicine and
rgery, will be in Chicago Wed-
|esday through Friday to attend
e annual meeting of the National
louncil for Control of Mastitis.
He will also meet with the Masti-
Js Comittee of the American Vet-
inary Medical Association while
in Chicago.
Dr. R. D. Turk, head of the De-
gjjJartment of Veterinary Parasito-
[igy, will participate in the Ohio
— weterinary Medical Association
'gieeting at Columbus.
Dr. E. D. McMurry, assistant to
|he dean, will represent A&M at
Rio Grande Valley’s “College
ay” Tuesday for high schools
that area. He will meet with
day
trolysis acts to eat away the pipe
metal.
He pointed out that galvanized
pipe coupled with copper pipe in
the San Antonio area has broken
down as quickly as six months aft
er installation. “One hundred-
year” cast iron pipe in dissimilar
soil lasted about six years.
The conference, to continue
through Thursday, has attracted
soil survey scientists from 13
southern states. Purpose of the
meeting is to co-ordinate soil sur
vey activities among the Soil Con
servation Service, the states and
the state universities.
Another p r o g r am speaker,
Charles E. Kellogg, deputy ad
ministrator for soil survey with
the Soil Conservation Service, said
the purpose of surveys is to couple
soil research knowledge with soil
use.
He said that soil survey informa
tion in the past has been pointed
mainly to agriculture. But now
many information requests are
coming from non - agricultural
sources such as cities with pipe
corrosion problems.
Kellogg added that there is a
major upswing in soil information
demand on a more quantitative
basis.
Curtis L. Godfrey, soil survey
leader for the Texas Agricultural
Experiment Station, is vice-chair
man of the conference. J. R.
Coover, state soil scientist for the
Soil Conservation Service at Tem
ple, is chairman.
