Galvalume Sheet Steel Many Canadian manufacturers of farm buildings, building materials and other products are already mak- ing plans to improve corrosion resistance by switching to Galvalume steel sheet which will be available in both unpainted and prepainted forms when Dofasco begins production in March 1984. Dofasco is the sole Canadian pro- ducer of Galvalume steel sheet, which is protected by an aluminum/zinc alloy coating. Although AZ150 Galvalume outlasts Z275 (G90) Galvanized by at least two to one, the price is com- petitive with galvanized on a per square foot basis. Galvalume steel may be used in many farm applications including pre-engineered buildings, roofing and siding panels, implements, materials handling systems and grain storage. In addition to its superior resistance to corrosion, Galvalume steel also has excellent heat reflectivi- ty. Galvalume steel has an attractive appearance unpainted. It is readily painted on site and will be available in a full range of prepainted colours and finishes. Construction procedures are similar as well. It should be noted that Galvalume steel should not be used in combination with copper ac- cessories or lead -headed fasteners as these metals can cause deterioration of the aluminum/zinc coating.

Box 460, Hamilton, Ontario L8N 3J5.0 Dairy and Beef Vaccine Boehringer Ingelheim (Canada) Ltd., has introduced new vaccine combinations for dairy and beef pro- ducers across Canada. Available only through veterinarians, Somnugen is a vaccine developed to protect cattle against Haemophilus comnus or as it is more commonly called ITEME. The disease has been discovered to be in- volved in an extremely large range of bovine diseases. They are quickly and easily transmitted through simple contact with an infected animal, such as rubbing noses, particularly at cat- tle collection points like sales barns and feedlots Shared bunks and waterers also enhance transmission. THE RURAL VOICE, OCTOBER 1983 The disease can take many dif- ferent forms including sudden death, pneumonia or shipping fever, lameness, infertility or even mastitis. If not treated Haemophilus somnus can also lead to numerous other disorders in a multiple disease com- plex. Somnugen is available in combina- tion vaccines including an in- tramuscular 7 way Fermicon 7/Som- nugen clostridial formula as well as IBR/P13/Somnugen for a more com- plete vaccination program against the Pneumonia/Respiratory Disease Complex.

A re- cent invention called the Ground Fault Interrupter or "G.F.I." removes many of the risks with faulty wiring. The Ground Fault Interrupter is an inexpensive device that meters electrical current. If an electrical cir- cuit is not functioning properly, the Interrupter will cut off the supply of electricity and eliminate any danger. Contact your electrical contractor or Ontario Hydro about Ground Fault Interrupters today. n
