Every State agricultural college
maintains corps Of specialists who
are willing and we'll qualified to help
stockmen promote the health of their
live stock. The U. S. Department Of
Agriculture is constantly giving out
important information in the form of
bulletins, which are available on re-
quest, and in every State has repre-
sentatives employed in combating
animal diseases or some other i'm
portant activity connected with ag-
riculture or stock raising. The State
veterinarian is also ready to give ad-
wise and assistance in the diagnosis
and control of outbreaks of diseases,
and in nearly every community there
is veterinarian who should be call
ed on when needed. All these agen-
cies exist for the purpose of render
ing assistance to the live stock own

if he would utilize them to a greater
extent.

HELPING THE MEAT AND MILK
SUPPLY

Losses of live stock from diseases,
accident and other causes, probably
three-fourths of which are prevent
able by proper preventive measures
and modern veterinary practice,
amount to enormous sums each year
in 1915 they were estimated as
reaching $212,0oO,OOo. This sum, say
specialists of the U. S. Department
of Agriculture, would supply the en-
tire American Expeditionary Force
of 100000 men with meat for near
ly year. To these losses may be
added others which, though indirect,
are nevertheless as important. The
encouragement of stock raising il
one indirect loss, and this in turn
retards the development Of diversified
agriculture. -.E..
Although much is being accomp-
lished in the control and eradication
of destructive animal diseases, the
Williston graphic., 1919-01-30

best results can be fully realized only
through closer cooperation between
the livestock owner and those. who
are in position to give him assistance.
The stockmen who fail to realize the
necessity of fighting the unseen enc
mics of live stock by sanitation and
the use of modern preventive meth
ods that science has provided must
be made to see the Importance and
profit which will come as result of
changing their conditions. A better
understanding of feeds and feeding
practices will prevent many of the
common disorders of the digestive
and respiratory tracts which are COM
mon among all classes of live stock.
Losses from such accidents as horn
wounds, bruises, wire cuts, harness
sores, and broken legs, in most in
stances, are properly chargeable to
neglect or carelessness. r....
The selection of breeds adapted to
the climate and local conditions un-
der which they must exist, as well as
the selection for the foundation
stock, is important in maintaining
health. Heavy beef and dairy types
are better suited to Withstand the
trying conditions of cold climates,
while the lighter, less feshy breeds
thrive better in warmer localities.
Mountain types are better adopted
for hilly grazing lands, close-wooled
sheep for cold regions, and the open
f1eeced breeds for warmer climates.
In purchasing stock it is advisable
to find out what attention the seller
gives to the health Of his animals,
Consult some of his customers. If he
is openly opposed to the tuberculin
test, for example, or objects to the
physical examination Of horses for
soundness by qualified veterinarian,
it may be for purely selfish motives.
AS soon as animals are suspected
of being affected with disease, es-
pecially if it is thought to be a COM
municable disease, they should be
separated from healthy animals and
be held in quarantine until this con-
dition has been determined and rem
edied.
The proper handling of animals
has an important bearing upon main
tanning their health and resistance to
diseases. Good equipment and high
grade stock are not enough. The ami
mails should be handled by an atten-
dant who has certain natural quail
fications for his work. He should
by all means have an inherent fond
ness for live stock and possess intel

HOW U. s. FIGHTS ANIMAL
DISEASES

How the spread of livestock dis
eases in the United States is largely
controlled and sources of infection
are stamped out is explained by the
Bureau of Animal Industry of the
United States Department. of Agri-
culture. Approximately 100 en-
ployees of the bureau engaged in
the work, are stationed at the prir-
cipal livestock markets of the coun-
try. .,...... ,a... ~.
All receipts of cattle, sheep, and
swine unloaded in daylight are in
spected at the time of unloading,
while all those yarded at night are
inspected early in the morning, be-
fore any trading takes place. Out
going shipments are reinspected be-
fore loading, and holdovers are rein
spected in the yards each day until
disposed of.
Diseases Watched For
The principal diseases for which
inspections are made are foot-and-
mouth disease, anthrax, scabies of
cattle and sheep, cattle fever, and
hog cholera. If any symptoms of
these or other communicable diseases
are detected, all affected or exposed
animals are segregated and treated,
or otherwise handled in accordance
with Department regulations.
Officials of the State in which the
shipment originated are Immediately
notified, as well as Department fed
forces in that territory, an devery
effort is made to trace the origin of
the infection. In this way centers OF
infection are located in most cases.
and the spread of the disease to 9th.
er premises and herds is usually pre-.
vented by the prompt application OF
appropriate sanitary measures.
Millions Inspected
During the last fiscal year ended
June 80, 1918, inspectors of the Bu-
reau of Animal Industry made 49,
zoo, 1884 inspections for contagious OF
communicable diseases, and super
vised 7O3,431 dippings of cattle and
sheep at market centers. The vaccina-
ton of 254,731 hogs against hog
cholera and the dippings of these
hogs were also supervised, in order
that they might be shipped to coun-
try points for feeding without dan
ger of spreading the disease. In addi-
tion, great numbers Of horses were
inspected for influenza, in the effort
to control that disease and reduce
losses from it. ..

Team Work Wins In Fight
With Diseases

1t is easier and more economical to
prevent the introduction Of disease
into a herd or flock than it is to elm
mate it. Every possible precaution
should be taken by the stockman to
prevent the introduction of diseases
on his premises. In recent years ami
NAL losses directly or indirectly from
diseases have amounted to. more than
$2OO,O0O,O0O, annually, but with
proper team work between Federal,
State and local authorities and stock
men these losses can be promptly
and greatly reduced.
