milne Milking
Saves Space

FARMERS AND dairymen who
are planning changes in their barns
and milking facilities to include a
milking room or parlor, will want to
consider the newest elevated milk
ing stall-the. milne type.
This stall takes less space than the
side-opening stall that is most COM
monty used, since an outside lane is
not needed to get cows in and out of
the stalls. The stalls are separated
in line by sliding doors which carry
the feed box. These doors slide into
the operators area when cows are
MIXED and the cows walk straight
ahead out of the milking room. The
front feedbox is then slid into place
and the first cow enters; the second
door is then slid in behind her with
the feed for the second cow in line.
Best plan for arranging this type
of stall for the small herd is in two
lines of two stalls each with the OPP
orator in an area between. In prac-
tice, two cows on one side are
cleaned and fed. While these are be-
ing MIXED the two on the other side
are cleaned and made ready for the
machine. This plan works best since
a slow milking cow cannot delay the
entire operation. However, it is a
good plan to let slow mixers wait
till the balance of the herd is MIXED.
These stalls are now readily avail
able from barn equipment manufac-
turers who can also supply floor
plans for easyto-build milking
rooms.

Cattle Marketing
Up 20 Per Cent

THAT MONTANA cattle market
ings in 1852 increased about &c per
cent over those of 1851 is indicated
by annual report of Montana brand
inspections.
Executive Officer Ralph Miracle,
State Livestock commission, said
that 759,780 head of cattle were sold
at markets both in and out of Mon
tana where the state has inspectors.
That was an increase of 156, 529 or
&c per cent more than were sold in
the same markets during 1851.
In all, Miracle reported, Montana
inspectors checked the brands on
1,381,028 cattle and 1858 horses in
1852. The totals include cattle and
horses from Wyoming sold at Bill
lings' two markets and North Da-
kota animals sold at Glendive and
Sidney.
Deputy inspectors, checking
brands before livestock was removed
from counties of Monana, looked
over 521,248 cattle in 1852. That
compared with 52O,364 in 1851. The

Veterinary

FOR ABOUT six months we have
been hearing lot about "V. E. in
swine. v. E. is a lot easier to say
than vascular exanthema, so every
one calls it by it's initials, ''V. E."
V. E. is a disease of swine that
can't be distinguished from foot-and-
mouth disease unless elaborate diff
ferential biological tests are made.
The losses in adult hogs affected with
v. E. are not great, but the loss in
condition and weight is. The losses
in baby pigs affected with this dis
ease can be tremendous.
In a relatively short time V. E.
spread from one state to about 16
states, including some of the major
pork producing states. Every effort
is being made to confine and eradi-
cate the disease whenever it shows
up. The control and eradication pro-

Raw Garbage Spreads Three
Major Swine Diseases
BY ]. w. Stafford, D. Y. M.


cedures are about the same as those
of foot-and-mouth disease.
There is no doubt that lot of
swine get into slaughtering channels
before the symptoms or LESSONS of the
disease can be detected. Ultimately
this means that lot of infected pork
meat scraps are getting into garbage.
Since the disease has become much
more widespread, the chance of get
ting infected meat scraps in garbage
has multiplied many, many times.
One of the major items in the spread
of V. E. is the wide dissemination
of the virus through the feeding of
non-sterilized garbage.
Cholera
We all know about the pigs pub
lie enemy No. hog cholera. I'm
fortunately this disease continues
taking its multi-million-dolla toll
from the swine industry year after
year. 1t will probably continue to ex-
tract this tremendous loss as long as
virulent virus is used as part of
the immunization procedure.
1t is known that the virus of hog
cholera is not destroyed by the usual
curing, picking, or smoking pro-
cesses to which lot of pork is sub
jected. IF you want to make a safe
bet just lay wager that sooner or
later susceptible swine being fed
raw garbage will be dying from hog
cholera.
Trichinosis
Trichinosis is a disease that doesn't
do any apparent harm to the pig, but
a person eating improperly cooked,
infected pork is liable to a painful,
and sometimes fatal disease. Sur
veys have revealed that hogs fed
exclusively on non-sterilized garbage
have a trichinosis infection rate of
Gil per cent. In areas that require
garbage be sterilized before if
is fed to swine the infection rate of
trichinosis was found to be OF per
cent.
Where did the or per cent come
from? Rats can be involved in the
spreading of trichinosis to swine
Further surveys indicate that in
areas where non-sterilized garbage
is fed to swine, the incidence of non.
clinical human trichinosis is abou-
Is per cent.
Other Diseases
There are few other diseases tina
can be transmitted to swine through
the medium of non-sterilized gar
bage, but they are of lesser impor
lance. 1t has been proven, in gen
eral, that garbage which has beer
cooked is more easily digested anc
utilized by the pig, especially tn
starches. Garbage feeding to swim
in some areas is big business ant
a legitimate business. 1t is continu
ally to be pointed out that the Ameri
can people are wasting too mucl
precious food. Garbage feeding O
swine does transform some of thi
wasted food into pork.
All garbage should be properl
sterilized before it is fed to swine
We have noted three diseases tina
can be of far reaching consequence
both economically and physically
three diseases that can be Target
