Remedy for Ergot Poisoning
Don't Feed Ergot!

An unusually large amount of
ergot has made it's appearance
in rye and some of the grasses
the past summer. So numerous
have the inquiries been concern
ing the harm resulting from the
use of these ergoted feeds that
the following suggestions are Of
fered by Dr.. c. c. Lipp, State
College Veterinarian: W h e n
f e d in considerable guam
titles or for a long time, ergot
frequently causes chronic poison
ing. The symptoms of this poi.
soning are Indigestion, nervous
ness or both. Further, the ac-
tlon of the ergot is such as to
sometimes cause the tips of the
ears and tail, and hoofs to drop
off. In poultry, the comb and
tongue are oftenest affected. 1t
sometimes causes abortion in
pregnant animals.
There is no treatment. Prev
ention consists in avoiding the
ergoted feed. If there is but a
small quantity present. it may
do no harm. If in larger guam
titles the fee d containing it
should be mixed with other feeds
known to contain no ergot.
While any feed known to con.
tain even the smallest quantity
is being fed. close watch must
be taken for the first symptoms
of ergotlsm. and the use of the
ergoted feed discontinued i'm
mcdiately. Death does not al.
ways result. but the thriftless
condition makes the animal so
nnclean that II is often best to
kill IL.

SYLVAN LAKE CARP ARE
DYING MYSTERIOUSLY
COttagers Appeal 60 Health Officer for
Relief and Many Large Fish
Are Buried.

ROME CITY. Ind. Sept. 20.-The
dead carp found in Sylvan lake the
past few days became 50 numerous
that the cOttagers applied to local
Health officer Or. j. Simon for relief.
Dr. Simon employed two men TO so
over the lake and find the dead carp.
and these two men buried 119 carp
yesterday. while Mr.. Shell. on the
island, buried "A more. Perhaps as
many as % were buried by private
parties. These dead carp are all large
ones ranging from five TO 20 pounds
in weight. The work Of hunting them
will be continued until the lake is
free from this menace
While some Of the fish have been
dissected to learn the cause of death,
opinions differ as to the cause. In
their stomach in almost every in
stance, a kind of mari is found, but
this does not seem TO satisfactorily
explain the cause Of death. The two
different species of carp are found to
be affected. but other kinds of fish
seem 10 be free from the disease,
or whatever else may be the cause OF
death. Doubtless the attention OF the
state fish authorities will be called to
this fact. and perhaps an investigation
will follow.
