How To Disinfect A Stable

When an animal dies on the farm
of some infectious disease his carcass
should be destroyed by burning. In
case this precautiOn is rendered i'm
possible the body should at least be
buried at depth of four or five feet
and covered with quicklime. Where
a shallow grave is used the diseased
remains may be subsequently disinter-
red by some providing animal and an
entire herd which is on pasture near
by may be exosed to the disease. An
thrax. especially, is often spread by
neglect of these precautions, as birds,
dogs or other animals prey on the un-
buried carcass and distribute the
germs. Great care must be exercised
to prevent the transmission of any
germ bearing disease to the rest of
the herd through the deaths of one of
its members. The stable which has
housed an animal which has died of
disease should be subjected
to rigorous sanitary treatment. All
he infected forage and bedding should
De raked up and burned, while the
walls should be well soaked with water
md then thoroughly scraped. In case
here is any rotten wood in the floor,
eed boxs, or stanchions. it should be
and burned. Some vigorous
emicide which will stamp out all
of further transmission of
ne disease should then be used.
Lime is generally considered one of
lie most efficient disinfectants. because ,
