Animal Diseases.

Dr.. X. w. Stouder, one Of the lead
ing veterinarians In the state has been
working with the Farm Bureau dur
ing the past week. These lectures
were given at Colesburg, Earlvtlle and
Delhi with total attendance OF 100.
This was a rare opportunity for
farmers In these sections to become
better posted on animal diseases. Two
Of the main features emphasized by
the Doctor were barn windows and
good ventilation. A great deal Of the
pneumonia that is now prevalent over
the county In our hogs is due to two
or three causes. In some instances
hogs were housed in closed quarters
during the night and when they 80 out
in the morning after being heated,
colds and pneumonia often result. In
addition hogs require great deal of
fresh air owing to the fact that they
have good deal of fat in their bodies
which is heat producing. The Doctor
said that plenty of bedding should be
provided and when the sheds become
filled with fine dust they should be
cleaned out and new bedding estab-
lished. Further, when any boards
were missing In building which
caused drafts Of air to blow over the
hogs, these places should be remedied.
The best method Of ventilating hog
houses or any other building Is to pro-
vide a chute which will extend some-
where near the floor up to the cup0la
OF the building. In emphasizing the
ventilation 81 our farm buildings. DR..
