well-ventilated stables and dry, clean
barnyards or paddocks are essential
to the health Of farm animals. One
valuable point in combating contag-
ious diseases, especially tuberculosis,
is to start the herd with animals that
not only arc free from disease, but are
of stock that is not predsposcd to
disease. Official tests of herds are
made on request and tnrough coopera
tion of the United States Department
of Agriculture with livestock sani-
tary officials. Pun chase CT breeding
stock from these herds is a wise pre-
caution. Care also should be taken to
obtain stock adapted to climatic and
local conditions. The other sources of
animal loss are largely Il matter of in
telligcnt and careful handling.
Sporadic and incidental diseases,
such as disorders Of the digestive AMI
respiratory tracts, can be avoided
largely by proper handling and feed
The very temperament of the person
who has charge of the animals often
has much to do with their health.
Some people are said to have "way"
with animals. If the hired man reg
lects and abuses animals, get rid Of
him. Aside from communicable di-
seases, the greatest loss can be traced
to disorders arising from some from
Of abuse of the stomach and intestines
0 fanmals. A proper balancing of IA
tions has a material influence on the
health of live stock. Too much of any
food element is likely to result in di-
gcstve disorders, thus predisposing
the animal to disease.
Parasitic diseases also carry off
large numbers of valuable animals
every year. They are largely the re-
suit of improper housing and neglect.
The average farmer can not be ex-
pcctcd to have the time and aptitude
for study which will keep him apace
with the latest developments in feeds
and feeding, animal nutrition and me-
dicincs, hygiene, and other important
matters related to the stock raising
industry. He can, however, avail
himself of the benefit of the studies
and demonstrations of specialists who
have devoted their entire time to these
subjects. Every State agricultural
