with difficulty. Diarrhea may be seen
in very severe cases. Once the liver is
destroyed the cows become thin and
weak quite rapidly. Young cattle may
become so weak they can't get up. APP
parently most of the cattle in the fluke
areas in Western Montana do not pick
up enough flukes to show the above
symptoms. The only way that it is found
they are infested is by examining the
liver at the slaughter house. We often
wonder how severe a fluke infectation
has to be in the liver before it interferes
with the animals ability to gain.
Cause Blacks Disease
Liver flukes play an important role
In the production of an infectious di-
sease in sheep, called Blacks disease.
Blacks disease is caused by bacteria
that is closely related to bacteria that
causes fatal disease in cattle. We
wonder if the fluke has anything to do
with this disease in cattle?
There are several drugs that are used
for the treatment of liver fluke infesta-
ton. 1t is recommended that you con-
suit your veterinarian as to the drug
of choice, the time and method of treat
ment
The logical approach for the control
of liver flukes is to get rid of the snails
in the area This would consist of drain
ing swamps, treating lakes, ponds,
streams, and irrigation bitches with
copper sulfate solutions. Snail control
would have to be done on an area-wide
basis. Of course the cost of such con-
troll program should be weighed against
the damage the flukes do.

j. w. Anderson, vice president

sale OF a warehouse property
might illustrate the point.
The property was listed on the
books at $111,000, but actually
sold for $550,000. he said. "You
could easily double the book

II am increasingly inclined
to the view" he said, that
Nehru, if we handle the Situa-
ton intelligently, is the one in
dividual through whom we might
without war be most likely to
save Southeast Asia from Com
muniSm."
If Nehru could be persuaded
to take the lead in forming an
Asian alliance of free nations
and would ask for the United
Nations to pledge that its men,
bers would resist militarily any
external aggression, it would be
the "optimum solution, tenn
porarily and possibly perma-
nently, for the grave question
confronting u.s." Mr.. Cowles de-
clared.
If the situation in Southeast
Asia deteriorates to the point
where such a plan would be
inadequate or ineffective. Mr..
Cowles went on, President Eisen-
hover should go before the
United Nations with a new
declaration.
Universal Disarmament.
He proposed that the President
declare that the United States
is prepared to do everything pos
sible to bring about complete
and universal disarmament, pro-
vided the Russians will agree to
complete disarmament with con-
tinuous and effective interna-
tional inspection and control.
The declaration he proposed
would state further that if the
Russians will not agree to total
disarmament and if there is fur
ther Communist external mill
tary aggression anywhere, I'VE
will definitely regard it as a
cause for war. And by war I
do not mean a local, jungle war,
but a war to destroy the main
springs of international Commu-
