Vaccine Handling
Law Is Suggested
The nexl legislature should be
asked lo enact laws thul will per
mit the department of agriculture
district representatives lo ilispecf
all livestock biological supply dis
tributing stations to see that prop
er handling of livestock vaccines
is being carried out. Dr. W. II.
l.ylle. chief of Hie department's
animal division, said recently in
discussing Improper blackleg vacci
nation which has been Hie cause'
of many losses of calves.
lie points out Hint in the lreat-
incut lor blackleg It is highly ini i
pnrtanl that the vaccine be fresh, j
In oilier words, it should lie sup !
piled by a distributor who has kept
il lu refrigeration.
Illackleg vaccine, kept under
proper refrigerator, produces satis
factory protection, but careless
handling of die vaccine has result
ed lu the los-i of a considerable
number of calves oflen more than
enough to pay tor a vet's services.
When calves die of blackleg, car
casses should he buried Willi ipiii k
lime or lairiieii. or the pasture or
range becomes seeded with germs
that will infect next year.
The department officials have
observed that it is nol ililrequenl

Miss America? Eggsactly!
Not many beings would be proud it each of their endeavors laid
an cgc, as the saying goes. But this Rhode Island Red, owned by
E. B. Parmentor.of Franklin, Mass., feels like crowing because when
'she counted her chicks before they hatched, she found she'd laid a
total of 340 eggs last year. So, though she's no spring chicken, she
was chosen "Hen of the Year" at Northeastern Poultry Producers
Council recent convention in Atlantic City.

Bioat Deaths Hot
Due to Pressure
That death from cattle, bloat Is
caused by the polsonuus nature uf
the liases concerned rather Hum
by the pressure of those gases, la
the conclusion ol' H. W. Dougherty,
assistant professor of veterinary
medicine, after extensive research
into this ancient malady conducted
at the OreRon experiment station.
It was found that carbon mon
oxide, which Is the poisonous ex
liuust kh "f tiiitomobiles, and hy
drogen sulphide, sometimes called
"rotten-egg" 'gas because of a simi
lar odor, were generated in lib
normal quantities under bloat con
ditions. Kxperimenis were carried on
witli an animal which had been
provided with an artificial opening
from Hie side into the stomach
through which Hie nature of the
gases generated could lie slnilied.
If these two gases mentioned were
introduced into the stomach under
even moderate pressure, she soon
showed symptoms of bloat distress
and had to lie relieved to avoid
death. Ordinary air. on the other
hand, could be introduced uiider
great pressure without causing any
serious difficulty.
Tests made on a heifer which ac
tually dle'd of bloat revealed the
gases itl the paunch in about the
proportions found dangerous in
Die experimental tests, and samples
of Hie blood showed that It had
absorbed large quantities of hydro
gen sulphide giiH iulo the blood
