HUMAN HEALTH AND THE
FOOT AND-MOUTH DISEASE
The Danger of Contaminated Milk Spreading
the Disease Is Overc ONE by Quarantine and
Pasteurization, Report Government Experts

tie. AS long, therefore, as the dis
ease can be confined by rigid quaran-
tine to certain specified areas, the
danger from this source is very small.
Should the pestilence spread all over
this country and become as general
as it has been at various times IN
large areas in Europe, the problem
would become more serious. Under
any circumstances, however. pasteur-
ization would be an efficient remedy
Where pasteurization is not possible,
and where there is any reason to sus-
pect that the disease may exist, the
precaution of boiling milk might be
advisable. Simple directions for pas
teurizing milk at home, however are
contained in Circular 1877 which will
be sent free on application to the U.
S. Department of Agriculture.
Cows affected with the malignant
form of the disease lose practically
all of their milk. In mild cases, how
ever, the decrease may be from one
third to one-half of the usual yield
The appearance of the milk also
changes. 1t becomes thinner, blush,
and poor in fat When the udder is
affected, the milk frequently contains
coagulated fibrin and blood. SO that
a considerable sediment forms. while
the cream is thin and of dirty col
or. These changes, however occur
only when the disease is in an ad-
vanced stage and. as a matter of fact,
the disease is not permitted to pass
into an advanced stage, as any strick-
en- animal is at once slaughtered.
Men who come in contact with dis
eased animals may also become in
fected In adult human beings the
contagion causes such symptoms as
sore mouths, painful swallowing, few
er, and occasional eruptions on the
hands, finger tips, etc. While caus-
Ing considerable discomfort, however,
the disease is rarely serious Where
it is very prevalent among animals,
some authorities believe that 1t is
