R. Younce, state veterinarian. The disease, known as acute pulmonary emphysema, is characterized by difficult breath ing, sometimes is accompanied by diarrhea or constipation and seems to affect chiefly lactating cows that been moved recently from have dried-out upland pastures to lush irrigated pastures. Dr. Younce urges caution In mov- ing affected catitle. Because they are having difficulty In getting suf ficient oxygen through their lungs, undue exercise or excitement may cause the death of alfected cattle. Veterinarians of the state depart ment of agriculture and the state college have made some Investiga tions in conjunction with practicing veterinarians in the eastern Oregon area in an attempt to arrive at the cause and proper measures for con trol of this condition. So far. no cause for the disease has been found. Cattle have been affective in varying types of past ures, but usually In low-lying or irrigated pastures where there is lush growth. Cattle kept in these pastures throughout the summer have not been reported as affected, while lacating cows brought in from dry feed have developed the disease in from five to 10 days after being placed on such pasture. No sure control has yet been de veloped. There have been conflict ing reports on 'the value of feed ing hay before turning the animals to pasture and of keeping hay avail able in the pasture. Various chemo therapeutic measures have likewise yielded inconclusive results. Cattlemen of eastern Oregon are advised, when turning cows onto lush pastures, to watch them close ly for a period of two or three weeks. If any animals are observed to have difficulty in breathing, the herd should be removed Immediately to dry lots and a veterinarian sum moned to diagnose the case to be sure It Is plumonary emphysema. Instead of a contagious disease.
