Tupelo, Miss.
As there has been quite a few
outbreaks Of Backlog in differ
ent PARTS of the County recently
and as this is q very atal disease
with young cattle, we ought to
know more about it that we
might combat the disease success
fully.
Blackleg is a germ disease, the
germs Of which will live in all
kinds Of soil, and the disease is
found in all attitudes and at all
seasons OF the year under vary
ing climatic conditions. This dis
ease OCCURS in this country from
the Atlantic to the Pacific and
from Mexico to Canada, and in
Europe it exists in France, Ger
many, Belgium, Norway, Den
mark. Italy and on the Alps of
Switzerland. It is also found in
Africa, South America, Austria
liza and Cuba.
AS stated above blackleg is a
germ disease, and it is an infec-
tious disease, therefore the germs
must find their way into the cir
culatory system before the ami
NAL can contract the disease.
This is done by eating grass, on
which there are the germs or
spores of blackleg, when there
are ulcers or sores in the mouth
or allmentary tract; by letting
the germs come in contact with
wounds which are generally caus-
ed from wine cuts, thorns, briers.
stubbles and sharp or pointed
parts of food.
The symptoms of blackleg may
be either of a general or a local
nature. but they are more fire.
quently of a local nature. The
general symptoms begin to show
up just few DAYS after infection
with a loss of appetite and rum
nation, and a high fever. The
tempature may 60 to 107 degrees
F. In addition to these symptoms
there maybe lameness or stiffness
of one or more of the limbs. due
to a tumor or swelling that inva~-
IDLY accompanies the digease.
is preceded by increasing
weakness and difficult breathing,
with sometimes occasional at
tacks of violent commissions.
The most important characteris-
tic of this disease is generally
a swelling or tumor on the shout
ders, loins. thighs, neck or breast.
These sWellings are more often
on one of the shoulders or one of
the thighs. They are never
found below the knee or hook.
These swellings increase very
rapidly in size. They are at first
very sensitive to the touch and
very warm. but later they
lose most of their sensitiveness
near their center and get cooler.
If the hand is rubbed across them
at this stage there will be given
off a crakling sound as If paper
were being rumpled or doubled.
This is caused from the formation
of gas that makes these tumors
or swellings. If these tumors
are cut into, a frothy, dark red
and disagreeable smelling blood
or fluid is discharged. Death
OCCURS generally in twenty-four
hours time and the animal swells
exceedingly after death.

by vaccinating. All young stock
