We think Grey County can well be proud of its record of having so few reactors. About ZO years ago when Dr. Tory tested the first cattle that were tested in Grey county, he was highly pleased that there should be no reactors in his native county, as he was born near Owen Sound. He may still be pleased with his county, for compared with many others of the counties we have oomparitively few reactors. We heard of a man who offered the In- spectors five and some twenty- five dollars to pass his caittle. We wonder if any of these men wouldn't be of the type to say, "Oh the govern- ment won't do anjrthing for the farm- er," and when the government tries to stamp disease out of his herd, he will try to bribe them to leave it there. He thinks the government won't do anything for him.
