' The solitary opal Miner, forever in the grip of fascination cast over him by the flashing t rainbow of colours - the "cupid stone" as the Romans called it, fell und,er its spell, hoping that his ceaseless efforts will be rewarded. What drives a man to such adverse conditions? Why is it considered by many to be the most beautiful and desirable of all gems? The answer lies in its unique beauty,, flashes of liquid fire, that emerge from the heart of ,a fine opal, that's found in no other gem. This has intrigued and mystified man since ancient times. Romans revered opal as the symbol of'' hope and purity, preserve the wearer from disease, Elizabethans were among its most ardent admirers. "This miracle was the ,queen of gems", wrote Shakespeare • in "Twelfth Night." Opal is the birthstone for October, coming from the „ latin word "opalus" meaning "precious stone". Although opals are produced in many regions throughout the world Australia is by far the most important source of gem opal. One of the most frequently mentioned factors of gem opal is their ever-changing appearance under different conditions and at different, angles. Few other gemstones can claim to have such individuality as • gooK duality opal. David Anstett Graduate Gemologist (GIA) Clinton, Ontario Highlights of the Ontario Veterinary Association's 101st annual convention, in Hamilton, February 1-4 and attended by Some , 750 practitioners and spouses from across Ontario included a plea to veterinarians to become more _closely involved w ith humane societies, or risk, being left behind. ' far. S.J. Alkemade of 'Seaforth attended the convention, Dr. David Dreesen, a veterin; arian who is also executive. • director of the Atlanta, Georgia humane society said veterinarians • and humane societies have always been at odds over animal welfare and it's time they buried the hatchet. As an example of the new co-operation possible betwen the two, he pointed out the Atlanta society maintains a dog blood bank for , veterinarians, even delivers dog and cat donors • directly to clinics for transfusions. For a fee, the same society picks up and delivers, in an ambulance, animals whose owners can't get their pets to a veterinary clinic. Since starting a rigid disease prevention program, the Atlanta humane society has ,earned the recommendation of veterin- arians as an excellent place to adopt pets; as a result, humane society adoptions have risen from 7,000 to 12,000 pets a year., Medical Science Helping The Ontario veterinarians also- heard from experts that medical Science is coming to the aid of large animal breeders in man ways, from tti*.use of computers in maintaining good herd health to determining the sex of unborn calves. Dr. P.K. Basrur, Profes- sor at the University of Guelph's department of biomedical sciences said her sex determina-• ' tion technique is one of the few that has been perfected with humans before being tried suc- cessfully in anirrials. Brucellosis: In Search A major concern to many of the large animal veterinarians at the convention was the cattle disease 'Brucellosis' that has struck a number of areas in. Eastern Ontario this year. At present. Ottawa and Queen's Park differ on the best method to eradicate the disease. with federal veterin- arian Dr. A. E. Lewis saying the federal ministry still prefers systematic slaughtering of infected cattle while the provin- cial government prefers voluntary vaccination of heifer calves. Dr. Brian Sorrell, retiring O.V.A.'. president.- said veterin- arians are uncertain when asked by farmers which stand is right. The O.V.A.'s 11-member governing council will announce its stand on the issue in about two months, he said. .Pregnant Women Should Avoid Dr. Ian Tizard. associate pro- fessor in veterinary microbiology at the Ontario Veterinary College in Guelph. told delegates that pregnant women should avoid two things - streak - tartar and , cat's litter box. Both may contain a parasitic disease called toxo- plasmosis which can cause, birth detects if a woman catches it during pregnancy. Cats can transmit the disease to humans through excreta. Dr. Tizard also said women should avoid digging, in the.garden during pregnancy in case cats have been in the area. He said 25 per cent of all Canadians are estimated to have antibodies indicating toxoplas- mosis infection at some time and are presumed to be immune to further infection. Anthrax Mystery Killer Dr, Edward LobinoWich. a regional veterinary supervisor in Bramalea for the federal govern- ment described to O.V.A. dele- gates a mysterious case of anthrax that killed a horse north of Toronto last year. According to Dr. Mary McMartin, an Aurora veterinarian, the three-year-old Appaloosa gelding died on a • Maple area farm last April 19. An autopsy at the Ontario Veterinary College in Guelph showed the presence of anthrax bacteria. Then Dr. Lobinowich qtrarantined 22 horses on the farm and ordered the owner's to disinfect the stalls and burn the, litter. There weren't any other deaths. All the horses were vaccinated. "We still don't know where it came from," said Dr. Lobinciwich. He said all attempt to determine where the horse contacted the, disease failed. Horse feed and saddle pads on the farms were checked, swamp water drunk by the horse two days before dying was tested. A dead muskrat on a road near the swamp was checked. The area had Aid history of anthrax for at least years. • With the mystery„ likely never tilh'eSoiVant. MeAttinclii a federal regtotial Veterinarian ift eStait etittititeittedi "It does its continually that erotic diseases can occur,: and we have keep our guard .at all ottliekStOtts Dr. tRic Ginsberg of Willow- dale strongly criticized the selling of imported dogs through pet stores in Ontario. He said they're often sick on arrival, may be sold as 'show dogs' when only of pet calibre and generally are of poor quality. Some pet store problems encountered by - veterinarians include vaccinations given by kennel owners, not veterinarians, and the dubious quality of the vaccine; many dogs are vaccin- ated too young for the vaccine to be effective; and many pet stores don't keep up booster shots nor worm dogs properly, if at all. Many pet store dogs (imported from the U.S. midwest and Great Britain) arrive coughing at our airports, suffering from kennel cough which is difficult to distin- guish from canine distemper. Dogs from England and U.S.A. often arrive with nutritional deficiencies...rickets, eye pro- blems. hernias and congenital heart murmurs.. The solution, according to Dr. Ginsberg, includes veterinary supervision of drug and vaccine handling in pet stores, (at present pet store owners can buy vaccine over the counter and often obtain controlled drugs such as bar- bituates and narcotics). The pet-buying public should deanand that health and vaccination certi- ficates be signed by a' veterin- arian, he said, and closer medical checks of animals at ports of entry should be made. He also called for. development of a commercial dog breeding industry in Canada, which could be brought about by charging tariffs and taxes on inaported dogs.
