Livestock Industry Urged to Beware Of Foreign Disease Today's rapid means of trans notation can pose a real threat to the livestock industry in Ore gon, according to Dr. Glenn B. Rea, recently appointed state veterinarian for the State Depart ment of Agriculture. Apparently healthy animals may harbor diseases for consid erably more time than it takes to travel across the United States and even to and from foreign countries, he explained. For this reason, livestock owners should be on the alert in the case of deaths due to unknown causes. An occasional death in a large herd of animals might be disregarded. On the other hand, it could be the forerunner of a serious epidemic of some un known or foreign malady, the state veterinarian warned. Though state and federal auth orities maintain a constant vigil against the intrusion of foreign diseases, leaks have occurred be fore and might possibly occur again, Dr. Rea said. Alertness on the part of farmers and ranchers cooperating with local veterinarians may well be the means of saving the industry and the stale from heavy losses of livestock and the costliness of a new eradication program. "A stitch in time saves nine" is very important when it comes to maintaining a healthy and profitable livestock indu s t r y throughout the state, Dr. Rea averred.
