An Ontario Veterinary Col- lege research team reported con- firmation Monday that the dom- inant factor in the disease is the bacteria Pasteurella hemolytica, one of two suspected causes. The University of Guelph group, in a series of reports to the annual convention of the Can- adian Veterinary Medical As- sociation, also cast doubt on the role of the virus parainfluenza-3 in shipping fever. Parainfluenza-3 has received much publicity recently as the villain in shipping fever. But Di'. R. G. Thomson, who co-ordinated the Ontario re- search team, said studies show- ed that the virus was present in sick and healthy 'livestock but was more common in live- stock /not suffering from ship- ping fever. Having established the dom - inant factor in shipping fever, the Guelph group now intends to Announce New ealing Substance: Shrinks Piles, `Exclusive healing substance proven to shrink hemorrhoids and repair damaged tissue. A renowned research institute has founcra unique healing substance 'with the ability to shrink hemor- 'rhoids painlessly It relieves itching ,and discomfort in minutes and speeds up healing of the injured; inflamed tissue. In case after case, while gently relieving pain, actual reduction (shrinkage) took place. Most important of all—results were so thorough that this improve- ment, was maintained over a period of many months. This was accomplished with a new healing substance (Bio-Dyne) ,which quickly helps heal injured cells and stimulates growth of new tissue.

While the group has solved the major part of the disease's cause in two years, finding apreventive will take longer because there is no known way to make a vaccine to fight the bacteria. Dr. Thomson said none of the vaccines against the suspected virus cause proved effective, yet one United States manufacturer is planning to move large quan- By MRS. ROSS SKINNER Mr. & Mrs. Wm.

The six Sales operate in the NORTH from Algoma District in the northwest to La Sarre, P.Q., in the Northeast and South River and Wiarton in the Southern part of the territory. The dates that have been es- tablished for the Consignment Sales this fall are as follows: The first two Sales will be at Wiarton on Thursday, Septem- ber 12 and Thursday September 19. Then it is South River on Friday, September 20; Thessa- Ion on Wednesday September 25; Little Current on Thursday, Sep- tember 26; La Sarre on Wednes- day, October 2; New Liskeard Sale will take place on Thurs- day, October 3. This works out to six sales in Northern Ontario and one in Quebec, and spread over a period of time of just three weeks. Later in October South River and Wiar- ton each have another Sale. Wiar- ton is Thursday, October 10 and South River on Wednesday, Oc- tober 16.

The best defence still is to lessen the stress of shipping by relieving crowding and pro- viding food and water and to treat with antibiotics and sulfa at the least sign that the live- stock have contracted shipping fever. Although easily treated if caught in early stages, it is par- ticularly difficult to diagnose be- cause temperature change are about the only guide that the animal is coming down with ship- ping fever. Dr. Thomson believes there may be human medical impli- cations in the findings on the virus parainfluenza-3, which was more common in nasal sec- retions of livestock which did not contract shipping fever. He said it has been shown in man and laboratory animals that immunity in nasal secretions plays a role in respiratory virus diseases. The group reproduced this in its livestock subjects. The team now hopes to test whether such local immunity can be extended to the lung by aer- osol spray rather than by vac- cination.
