Ask Before You Cut That Tree!

Various land owners in h e kenai and Soldotna areas have reported that Christmas trees sometimes as many as a truck load-have been taken from their property without persons cutting them requesting permission.
 Several of these property own CTS and homesteaders are protest ing vigorously against such wan ton trespassing by persons who show no respect whatsoever for another persons property.
 The cutting of Christmas trees, even one tree. on privately owned or state owned land Is a violation of the law.
 Permission must be obtained. and is most generally given, for the cutting Of an occasional tree. The land owner, however, has legal right to be consulted and to suggest which tree he is willing to donate for some ehild,s Christ mas.
 The cutting of truck loads of trees by commercially minded in- dividuals is as much Of q theft IS the taking of the farmers grain. livestock or other posses sions, 1t was pointed out.

Veterinary
Seleniu111 Controls
White Muscle
By w. w. HAWKINS JR., D.V.M.

WHITE MUSCLE DISEASE is a
nutritional disease of lambs and calves.
The actual cause Of this disease is
not known but several facts about it
have been known for some time. We
know that it occurs in certain limited
areas in Montana. We also know that
white muscle disease may be produced
in lambs by feeding hay from white
muscle areas to ewes late in CESSATION
and for the first few weeks following
1ambing.
Two years ago it was shown for the
first time that the element selenium
was apparently an essential nutrient
because a very small trace of this
mineral in the diet would prevent white
muscle disease.
The beneficial effects of small
amounts of selenium were first dis
covered in New Zealand, Oregon and
New York. The New York and Oregon
trials found that the inclusion of Oh
Or 10 parts per million of seIenium
10 the ewes ration would practically
eliminate white muscle disease in their
lambs.
Tests i'm Montana
Since white muscle disease is diff
ferent in some affected areas, the
Montana Veterinary Research Labora-
tory wished to confirm that selenium
was of benefit in white muscle disease
Of lambs in Montana. Also, since in
larger amounts selenium is poisonous
and the small amounts of selenium
needed to prevent white muscle disease
are difficult to add accurately to prac-
Eical rations, it was desirable to in
vestigate the possibility OF supplying

Sire's Record Counts
More Than Dams

DAIRYMEN SHOULD GULL their
poor producing cows but not necessar-
lily their daughters = if the sires of the
daughters are production proved.
This is the conclusion drawn from
S5-year breeding experiment con-
Quoted by the us. Department of Ag-
riculture.
This long-term experiment covered
eight generations of unculIed, un-
selected cows. Only sires were selected.
All heifers were raised and developed,
regardless of their appearance or pro-
ducing ability. They were housed, fed,
and managed uniformly during the en-
tire test period
Use of proved sires resulted in rapid
Improvement in butterfat production
(the basis of comparison in this herd)
for the first five generations. The
herds yearly fat production increased
from an average of $50 pounds per cow
to 7O3 pounds in the first five genera
tions, but increased to only I'll pounds
in the last three generations.
Transmission of production charac-
teristics from dam to daughter is not
always consistent, test records showed.
Even when using proved bulls, the
highest producing cows do not always
have the highest producing daughters,
In the experiments. only Is per cent
of the daughters attained the same
production class as their dams.

MUM at ; weeks Of age. None Of these
treated lambs died. The remaining
S8 affected lambs received no treat
ment, and in the course of time, 10
of them died as result of the disease.
3. The effect of seIenium and/Or
white muscle disease on weight gains.
Since many affected lambs will re-
cover, it was wondered if they are
worth keeping. To try to answer this
question, all lambs on this experiment
were weighed at 81 days of age and
some were given a one mgm. injection
at that time The lambs that received
the injection were selected without re-
gard to whether or not they were af
fected with white muscle disease. All
surviving lambs were weighed again
when they were between and Az
months old.
The average weight gain made by
apparently normal lambs not receiv-
ing selenium was 52.7 pounds. Normal
lambs receiving the injection of selenium
gained SIG pounds. Lambs that were
affected with white muscle disase but
recovered without receiving selenium
gained 48.9 pounds. Affected lambs that
received selenium gained 543 pounds.
The following conclusions may be
drawn from these results:
I. The administration of seIenium to
pregnant ewes on white muscle produc-
ing hay in Montana will practically
eliminate white muscle disease in their
lambs.
g. The se1enium may be safely and ac-
administered to ewes by in
lection, provided that a carefully
dose is used.
g. The administration OF selenium as
a treatment of affected lambs appar-
emily will reduce the mortality of the
disease.
4. SeIenium did not, under Montana
conditions, improve weight gains in
n0rmal lambs.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1961-02-01

The mineral to ewes by means of in.
jectiOns. Not only would injections be
safer and more accurate method OF
administering seIenium, but they would
also be more practical.
Various studies have been complet-
ed at the Montana Veterinary Research
Laboratory with the following findings:
l. SeIenium administered to the preg-
nant eve.
Two groups of ewes were put on
hay feeding from breeding time
through lambing and the first three
weeks after lambing This hay was
from a ranch that had suffered severe
losses from white muscle disease in
the past. One group of ewes received
four sub-cutaneous injections, each
containing 10 mgm. of selenium, in
early January, February and March,
with the final injection at lambing
time in April
Seventy-eight lambs were born to
the ewes that did not receive the in
jections of selenium. OF these over
SO per cent had white muscle disease,
81 lambs were born to the ewes re-
ceiving seIenium and only one of these
developed white muscle disease.
These results confirm those of re-
search workers elsewhere and show
that selenium will almost entirely pre-
vent the occurrence of white muscle
disease in lambs under Montana con-
ditionS. tt probably will not be neces-
sary to use as high a dosage or as
many injections, and future work
should indicate the most appropriate
methods for Montana ranch conditions.
Most likely two 10 mgm. injections,
me given at tagging or shearing time
md one at lambing, would be sufficient.
2. SeIenium administered to affected
ambs.
Out of a total of 5S lambs that de-
'eloped white muscle disease, Is were
siven injections of one mgm. of sele-
Montana farmer-stockman., 1961-02-01

5. Lambs that recover from white
muscle disease without treatment go
on to make weight gains almost as
good as those Of normal lambs.
6. Selenium treatment of affected
lambs, probably by speeding up their
recovery, allows weight gains to equal
the normal lambs gains.

. ANNAPOLIS, Aug. 80 (Spe-
ciaD The Navy turned thumbs
down today on a bid by the
Holyoke (MasS0 Merchants
semipro football team for the
services of Joe Bellino. the
Naval Academy's All-American
halfback last year.
; The Massachusetts, club an
nounced yesterday that Bellino
would play seven games this
season. However, it turned out
that neither Bellino nor the
academy had been consulted
before the announcement.
Bellino, winner of the Heis-
man Trophy award as the top
college football player in the
Nation last year, admitted he
had expressed an interest in
playing with the Merchants,
one OF the top Semlpro CLUBS
in the East.
However, he left the decision
up to the Navy and Capt. AS
bury (Red) Coward, director of
athletics at Annapolis, rejected
the proposal.
Coward said that it would be
impossible for Bellino to play
football this fall. He pointed
out that Bellino is an ensign in
the Navy, teaching physical
education classes and coaching
