BLACKLEC VACCINATION
URGED UPON FARMERS
BY DR.. N. JACOB
Estate veterlnarlan.)

NASHVILLE, Tenn, May 2-Ev-
cry county in the state has a certain
percentage of losses among cattle every
year from blackleg, Since these losses
occur principally during spring, sum-
mer and early fall, it is essential that
our farmers take immediate steps to-
ward combating this disease, 50 as
to protect their cattle during the COM
ing year. The following facts n sug-
| gestions are offered.
Blackleg Is a highly fatal, infectious
disease of cattle.
1t affects cattle, as u rule, that are
from three months to three years OF
age, although cattle Of any age may be
affected.
The disease Is spread through the
distribution OF parts OF from
| cattle which have died OF blackleg,
Tennessee regulations require that the
carcasses of all animals dying from
hlackleg must ba completely burned.
II blackleg does or has appeared in
your community, vaccinate your cattle
before turning them on pasture.
II you yaccinate your cattle. be sure
to include those from three months to
three years old and better still those
Of all ages.
When using pellet or powdered vac-
| cine treatment should be given at least
twice a year. and in badly infected To-
c~alities re-treating In three or four
months Is advisable.
The liquid blackleg ~vaccines, includ-
ing blackleg f~iltrate, aggressins, etc,
are preferable to the pellet or powder
| forms, producing more lasting immuni-
ty and will protect the animal at least
a year.
LIQUID blackleg vaccines are given
| under the skin on the sid of the neck
| or behind the shoulder with a v%erter-
