Here Mrs. Potter receives the prize from Harry Parry (left) and Laurie Slade of the Clinton IGA store. lactation. Do not make ration changes during the first few weeks of lactation. Do not feed wet, bad-smelling silage to fresh cows, The butyric acid in this type of silage increases the chance of ketosis. Avoid overly fat dry CM, Fat cows have a tendency to be ketonic when they freshen. If dry cows are fed mostly corn silage, make sure they get adequate protein, such as one pound of soybean meal daily, If you have a serious ketosis problem, feed one-half to one pound of propylene glycol or sodium propionate during the first six weeks of lactation. Both are high energy chemicals which help put the cows back into an ttlergy balance. Mr. Buck says that in many herds milk fever is also a serious problem. It is brought on by removal of calcium from the blood at a rate greater than .0 can be replenished from the body stores. Proper nutrition, with particular attention to the right quantities of minerals, calciut and phosphorus, can help preven this condition. Since vitamin D iefloenc calcium and phosOboru utilization, moderat supplementation of 5,000 t 10,000 units per day might b advisable. Twenty million unit fed, or preferably 10 to 20 milli° units injected once, four to seve days before calving, can b expected to reduce the disease incidence by about '70 to 75 pe cent in problem nerds, However this practice should only bE followed in those cows with history of milk fever, Cows fed too much calcium an not enough phosphorus ca develop milk fever, A reduction o calcium intake and an increase i phosphorus consumption by th addition of monosodium phosphate or disodium phosphate may be advisable, The best calcium-phosphorus ratio in the total (complete) ration is between 1.5;1 and 2:1. 29c Large Stalk CALIFORNIA SUNKIST ORANGES be,. 5C GOLDEN YELLOW CHIQUITA BANANAS ..115c CANADA NO. 1 HOTHOUSE CUCUMBERS 2149c CALIFORNIA FIRE LOGS 89c SPRING CLEANING SALE MR, CLEAN LIQUID LEANER..

For those who want to spend a little time and effort, the hotbed can be a good investment, says R.W. Crawford, horticultural specialist, Ontario Department of Agriculture and. Food. Hotbeds are basically a wooden frame with a glass frame This is placed in the garden and some form of additional heat is supplied. Sometimes this can simply be fresh manure. However, a more modern method is a soil-heating cable. This cable works well, but a screen should be placed over it so that it will not be damaged if the soil is dug up. There should alse be a thin layer of sand between the screen and the cable. The cables are often equipped with a thermostat. Hotbeds can be started after the danger of very heavy frost has passed. :sx ilf COilflk, , a a .\1,10V,4 .,.0i,., Wig, krl 4 '4‘144-..

McGREGOR ELECTRIC Phone 482-3301 Cancer Society meets in Wingham At the meeting in Wingham, Dr. L. Clarke spoke to members of the Huron Unit of the Canadian Cancer Society on various aspects of the. cancer problem in Newfoundland where he has been residing until recently. There is only one radio therapy unit on the island, and in some districts one doctor serving a wide area makes cancer detection somewhat problematical. He felt that in many cases, with a small amount of training on the subject, screening could he carried out by nurses. Dr, Clarke feels ,strongly that there is an environmental tendency which predisposes people to cancer in certain instances, citing one island settlement as an example. He also feels that there is a definite familial tendency to the disease, but it would take a great deal of research to come to any real conclusion on the subject. At the business segment chaired by Mrs. M. Durst, campaign matters were discussed, and Howard Aitken .gave a thorough report on publicity promotion plans. Additional business discussion included tentative plans for the annual dinner meeting in Clinton on September 19, at which Bill Brady, radio and television personality' of London, will be guest speaker. It was decided that tickets should be ordered in the near future, and the public be asked to obtain theirs at an early date as seating accommodation will probably not be available for all who wish to attend. Ketosis and milk fever Oalibe of concern for dairy farmers at this time of year, says Gary Buck, dairy cattle specialist, Ontario Department of Agriculture and Food. Ketosis Or acetonemia) is a metabolic •disturbance more common among winter freshening than summer freshening dairy cows. Irregular fat -breakdown forms ketone bodies which appear in the blood and urine. In most cases affected cows will have a decreased appetite and ma,Y go off feed entirely. The usual treatment is to give the cow an intravenous dextrose solution, Since no one, knows the exact cause of the irregular fat breakdown, it is wise to try some management factors which help prevent ketosis, says Mr. Buck. Start feeding your regular grain mixture two to three weeks prior to calving, Gradually increase the grain so that the cow is eating 15 pounds per day by calving time.
