Forage Poisoning Caused
Death of McCall Horses
W. H. Lytle, state veterinarian,
was hastily summoned to Prineville
last Saturday to inquire into the
cause of death of a number of
horses belonging to t Henry McCall.
While driving his exhibit of live
stock to the fair Mr. McCall lost
one of the horses attached to one
of the cattle wagons- Then two
others died and several were very
sick. The public health officer was
appealed to and Dr. Rosenberg tele
phoned Mr. Lytle. That gentleman
came at once and after a thorough
examination he pronounced the
cause of trouble as "forage poison
ing" or so-called "cerebro spinal
meningitis."
The state veterinarian says:
"This disease is one that is associ
ated with improperly cured forage
or forage that has been contami
nated with molds. The formation
of many of these deadly fungi are
not well understood. They seem to
originate under certain conditions
of climate, temperature and mois
ture that varies from year to year.
One pasture or field will frequently
show contamination while an ad
joining field will be free although
conditions will seem identical.
"The symptoms of forage poison
ing tending, as it does, to involve
the nervous system and particularly
the brain and spinal cord, has
caused this disorder to be called a
meningitis, while properly speaking
it does not often take on the nature
of an inflamation of these organs.
"By some little understood
process contaminated forage when
once taken into the system sets up !
an excessive growth and involve-'
ment of the entire animal economy, 1
through either by means of poisons '
produced by reason of their growth '
on the injesta, which upon absorb-'
tion tends to paralyze the brain and '
spinal cord or a direct entrance into '
the blood stream, they bring about
a pronounced weakness and locomo
tary disturbance to the animal that
has been infested with them,
Animals that have once become in
fected and have been heavily
charged with the poisonous prod
ucts of the mold - contaminated
food seldom recover, especially is
this true if they have become so (
weakened as to be forced to lie
down or have become paralyzed.
"Forage that is contaminated
cannot well be told from that
which is not, except by means of
feeding.' However, well cured
alfalfa has never been associated
with this malady and has been ex
tensively used as a ration on which
to place animals that have become
infected by eating other forage.
Generally speaking, hays that -have
several species of grains in variable
stages of ripeness are the most
dangerous as it is generally impos
sible to cut such when all are in the
proper development for well cured
forage. This often leaves the un
ripe grains free to undergo mold
contamination if other conditions
are right. Fortunately it is sel
dom the case that all these neces
sary conditions are present and this
is why we seldom encounter this
trouble.
"Contaminated forage is not
harmful to cattle and other animals
excepting sheep, and itself tends to
become free from the harmful pro
ducts after a couple of months time
so that it will not be injurious to
horses. Cured timothy or clover
hays as a rule are not injurious,
hence the main trouble may be
looked for in grain hays that have
been cut in different stages of
ripeness. a
"Treatment resolves itself into
freeing the system of the contami
nating food and a general system
atic disinfection. This can best be
done by the services of a trained
sanitarian and all such conditions
should be immediately called to the
attention of your local veterinarian.
This malady, while not of an in
fectious order is such that expert
knowledge of the source of the
trouble may be. of great benefit in
combatting the ailment"
