NEW DISEASE
in THIS COUNTY
Cattle and Horses Have Died of
It.-VaccinatiOn Pre-
ventative

A new disease known as hem
orrhagic septicemia has affected cat
tie and horses to some extent in this
and adjoining counties
number of head of cattle and at
least one horse have died of the dis
ease in and near Hawkins, and sew
eral head of a herd in the town of
Murry are believed to have died of
the disease, though the owner at first
was OF the opinion that the cattle had
eaten poison put out for wolves.
The disease works rapidly and
there is but little chance of saving an
animal which has developed the dis
ease, The trouble may, however be
prevented by vaccination and it would
seem the part of wisdom to take the
preventive measure. Call a veterin-
arian in suspected cases and get his
advice on vaccination for unaffected
animals.
Symptoms of the Disease
The first symptom to be noted is
usually fever, which may reach 1O5 to
1O6 degrees. Cessation of rumination
and lack of appetite is also present
In some cases severe colicky pains are
manifested, accompanied at first by
constipation and later by diarrhea in
which the feces are often streaked
with blood. The urine also may be
discolored and bloody.
The above symptoms are found in
the acute form of the disease. In this
form the first evidence of the disease
is frequently observed by sudden death
of one or two animals in a given herd.
The disease more often appears in
acute or sub-acute form than in the
chronic form.
In addition to the general symptoms
noted above, unless death occurs in a
few hours after the symptoms are first
noted, other characteristic manifesto
tions will appear. The tissues of the
head and neck as well as those of the
throat and dewlap may become filled
with edematous fluid Legs and other
parts of the body may be swollen from
edema. Respiration may become diff
ficult and symptoms of pleuro-pneer-
mOnia may appear. Death occurs in
from few hours to several days af
ter the first symptoms are noted. In
the edematous form fatal results
usually follow after few hours.
Nearly all affected animals die.
Autopsy shows characteristic hem0r-
rhagic LESSONS of serous and mucous
membranes and internal organs. The
thOracic and abdominal cavities may
contain quantities of discolOred fHid,
The lungs usually show congestion.
The treatment with hemorrhagic
septicemia vaccine (for cattle) has
proved to be Of great value in i'm
munizing against the disease. 1t may
be used prophylactically in infected
herds In the treatment of all animals
which do not manifest symptoms of
the disease. Under such conditions
it should be administered as early "a
possible.
AS a curative measure among eases
of septicemia hemorfnagfc already ,la-
veloped. anti-septicemia hemOrrhagic
serum (for eattie) is clearly indicated.
It is important that the serum should
be administered as early as possible
during the course of the disease.
