Control Measures

Control Measures
There is no remedy from a med
ical standpoint, and since treatment
has thus far. proved. futile. the aim.
should be to prevent so far as pos
sible the spread of infection. Sick.
fowls should be killed promptly,
without communicating the premises
and the ~carcasses burned or buried
deep. The healthy fowls should be
moved to new quarters and careful
tly watched for signs OF the disease.
Houses and runs should be thor
oughly cleaned at frequent inter-
walls and disinfected with a 5 per
cent carbolic acid solution. The
drinking water nay be made anti
septic by adding one-third teaspoon
full of permanganate of potash to
each gallon of water, a procedure
which serves to prevent the spread
of disease through the water and
also is a convenient means of ad-
ministering an internal a%ntiseptic.
All infected coops, shipping and re-
ceiving centers, fattening plants, and
poultry cars should be similarly
cleaned and disinfected. In Italy
and Germany experiments have been
conducted with a serum for both
protective and curative purposes.
1T should be remembered that
there are other poultry diseases pre-
vailing that may be mistaken fol
fowl pest. Diseased chickens have
been received for study from sever
al points in the central west within
the last few weeks, but fowl pest
was not encountered in any of thess
shipments.
I'VE r now making a survey to
learn the extent of fowl pest. In the
meantime the department is forbid
ding interstate movement of dis
eased and exposed birds as well as
carcasses of birds which have died
from the disease. Manure and lit
ter from diseased fowls are also
prohibited interstate movement,
Cleaning and d~isinfecting coops,
%troughs, cars, premises and aces
series that may be contaminated
are required under supervision. Far
mers and poultry producers in al!
parts of the country are requested
to report at once to the state a IL
thorities concerning any unusual
symptoms among their poultry and
to isolate any suspected birds"
A government quarantine is also
in effect now. This quarantine for
bids the shipments from one STATE
to another of any fowl. In its pro
visions as to crates. coops, etc, ii
is virtually the same as the Wyom-
ing state quarantine.

WELL
FOR

DR. FREDERICK n. GREEN
Editor of sHEALTH"

DAINT Is q %life-saver.
60 Not the kind that goes on the
face. but the kind that goes ON the
wall.
At first thought there would seem
to be no connection between paint and
health. yet recent investigations have
shown that fresh paint Is q valuable
a~ntiseptic.
Mr.. Henry A. Gardner Of the Insti-,
tute of Industrial Research at Wash
ington painted a wall surface and then
sprayed 1t with a liquid culture of
disease germs. A similar wall space.
implanted. was also sprayed with the
same germ culture. On the implanted
area an abundant growth of disease
germs developed, while on the freshly
painted area the germs died.
The explanation is simple. Ar I'M
painted. rough wall is porous and
moisture is absorbed by the wall and
retained for a long period. Most dis
ease germs can only grow on moist
substances. If the wall is painted. the
pores are filed up with paint and a
rough. absorptive. damp surface is
changed into a smooth, non-absorptive.
dry surface.
A painted wall al be easily cleaned,
while an implanted wall cannot be
washed successfully.
This scientific demonstration has
been borne out by practical experience.
In the early days of our knowledge
of disease germs, fumigation was gen.
orally used. If it didn't do anything
else, it at least made a bad smell. very
much like the incense n strong odors
that primitive nan used to scare away
disease. But the New York health de-
partment is now using paint rather
than fumlgation for sterilizing rooms
which patients with contagious dis
eases have occupied.
In a maternity hospital In st. Louis
there were over a hundred cases of
puerperal fever with a high death rate.
Doctor Starkloff, the health commits
sioner. ordered the hospital cleaned
and the entire place repaiDted, includ-
ing the floors, ceilings and inside walls.
After the painting puerperal fever
almost entirely disappeared in that
institution.
This sounds reasonable when we
consider that paints are made up of
white lead, turpentine and other anti
septic substances.
Spring is a good time for cleaning.
A fresh coat of paint In a house or
hospital makes it not only better-look-
; ing, but a clean and healthful place
in which 10 live.
! Paint not only preserves a structure
and improves its appearance, but it
also increases its healthfulness.
Good health is largely a matter OF
applied common sense.
If we live in clean surroundings,
keep our bodies clean and strong and
have lean air, clear food and clean
water. we will be in little danger from
disease.

Pulling against one another is no
gain to either party and in the end
is usually expensive to one of the
parties or both.
Sometimes a person will ask. why
do people pull against one another?
There is always the same answer.
It is either Jealousy, selfishnesss or
greed. These three evils may undo
more work in a few moments than
can be developed in many hours Of
work.
The people of Cody have some
very important problems to settle
during : the next year. 1t will be
necessary for each and every per-
son interested to act for the best
interest of the town, and overlook
any personal reward which might
be desired. He must get the broad
perspective of what is best for the
community, what will best serve the
public and what from a business
standpoint is more practical for all
concerned.
Cody has big and broad business
men. Let's settle our affairs in a
big and broad manner. and let
neither jealousy, selfishness nor
greed govern us while making our
decisions.
With the beginning of the new

to be enforced, or, because we dc
not all approve of them, are they
to be rolled and kicked about to

those who are inclined to disregard
them?

AUTO INSURANCE RATES CUT

There has been a cut made In the
insurance rates in the
town of Casper, due it Is said to the
better police protection which is
being given nowadays in the protect
ion of cars. and the better method
used by the state in allotting licen-
SEES. The decrease in rates is the
direct result of negotiations Of the
Casper Motor Club and the Chamber

HOW AN ENTIRE dunn DISTRICT
ITS RETURN FROM BETS THROUGH ROTA-
TON, MANURING AND GOD NJ

Ihelr ~ to 70 acres OF beetS annually on each farm
forms the cash crop basis of a program consisting al
most entirely of alfalfa, beets, milk cows and some
winter feeding.
Their soil is not exceptional; their record is dup
Heated on numerous individual farms in many other
localities; but as a district their consistent Improvement
in yield points the way for other communities.
Wet pulp is not the limiting factor in successful
feeding in the Big Horn basin. Some growers in out
lying districts have had satisfactory results in sheep
feeding with beet tops, alfalfa and barley. Others are
successful with dairy cows, and still others by proper
rotation of crops are increasing their yields with little
manure available.
Practically every farmer in the Hooker ommunity
milks a few cows and has poultry as a side line, but
these ventures and their winter feeding is conducted
on a conservative scale. However, by feeding all hay,
tops and other roughages on the farm and carefully
conserving the manure, the fertilize each year prac-
tically the total acreage of beets frown.
Localities and individual growers are urged to call
freely upon the agricultural department of the nearest
Great Western factory for aid in planning their farming
operations in 1925 to obtain higher beet yields.
