For Couqhinq Pigs.

Cough In young pigs not nursing
may be due to lung worms (strongylus
p~aradoxus). and there is no cure. but
we'll fed pigs generally manage to
withstand the Ill effects of the worms.
They are small, threadlike worms and
live in the windpipe or air passages OF
the lungs. They cause a croupy cough.
When pigs are known to be affected
with these worms they should be gen.
erously fed and allowed free range on
grass. Turpentine may be given In
milk or slop at the rate of one tea
spoonful for each eighty pounds of
pig. and the dose may be repeated
three times at intervals of three or
four days.

tell by type or conformation the COW
