one of the farmers in the county who
reported that his cattle were dying
reached a county agent In Colorado one
Saturday evening at $50 o'clock. From
the description of the symptoms the
agent decided that the disease was
blackleg and immediately called up the
Colorado State Agricultural College for
advice. Then he arranged by telephone
to have a local deputy state veterin.
arian make the 25 mile automobile trip
to the farm with him, In just two
hours from the time the call was re.
ceived the veterinarian and the county
agent were at work vaccinating calves
and yearlings attacked by blackleg.
The work had to be done by the dim
light of two lanterns. After vaccinat.
ing the first herd they went to a neigh
boring farm, aroused the farmer out of
bed, vaccinated his small herd. and
then called on several neighboring farm.
ers, warning them, and suggesting pre-.
cautionary measures. After working
all night, they returned home at dawn.
On the same day another trip was
made to the same community, taking
more vaccine. Within four days from
the time he was notified. the county
agent, assisted by the veterinarian, had
