SCOURS IN CALVES.
A Serious Complaint and One Difficult
to Overcome.

ScourS or calf cholera is a serious
complaint and very difficult to over
come, writes II. G. Van Pelt in the
Farm and FireSide.
1t is an infection caused by one OF
two or three different specific germs
which gain access to the blood Of the
calves through some wound or broken
skin surface. The germ is present
some place in the barns or lots. First
thoroughly clean and diSinfect all calf
pens. barns and sheds Inhabited by the
calves. Keep the calves out Of mud or
wet stalls. These considerations are
incidental to the main preventions. but
must be given very careful attention.
1t XII be found hard fight. and every
pr aution must he taken IN thorough
m. uner.
I Ne main operation in preventing the
disc e is to watch closely for the
birth q all calves. Have strong
string soaked in solution Of creolin
or lysol. and just as soon as young
ster is born thoroughly battle and dis
infect the umbilical cord and tie the
string tightly around the cord close tc
the body. This is the usual source of
infection.
Without these precautions the dis
ease will probably never be eliminated,
but where all of them are carefully OBJ
served. and especially the latter, the
trouble will soon die out. The infec-
ton is not caused by the feed. The
writer has always found that to pre-
vent scourS in young calves an excel
lent plan is to feed Il teaspoonfdl or
blood -four. which can be purchased di.
rect from the packers. i'll each feed or
milk given 10 each calf.
