NOT BAD
Although there is the norrna.l
increased amount of sieknesS,
about at this time of the year
the influenza epidemic is 11
nearly so prevalent in the God
rich` area as is cot?monly be-
lieved, Dr. 11. M. Aldis, HuxOn
M.01-1., told The Signal -Star.
What there is of it, we hope is
at its peak or a little past peak,
tee_ said. There is a definite
tapering off of the amount -of
'flu in the Clinton district, .lie.
stated.'
Business Adminis('rator Leo
alzak at Alexandra • Hospital
Mated the ban on visitors to
the; hospital would continue at
least to the end eo ' this week.
This is a precautionary mea•
sure, however, against visitors
with colds coming to the hos-
pital. Some of the hospital.
taff have been ill with colds
and this has,, put more than
usual pressure on the norma
operational- duties at the hos-
pital.
Checking ,schools in Goderich,
The Signal -Star found that ab:
senteeism due to illness is not
unduly high at the present
time. There are a few 'llu
I cases and some with colds. Ger-
man measles, chicken pox and
mumps have made some con-
tributions to illness among
pupils who have been away.
The 'flu epidemic of about
four years ago had more effects
on this community than the pre-
sent one seems to have, . Dr.
Aldis said.'

Wilt Supply Forms
Upon receipt by the Health
Unit of an application form, the
Unit will supply forms for re-
cording 'the results of monthly
and bther tests, along with in-
formation such a's age of cow,
beginning and ending of lacta-
t;on period. --The herd owner
should list his cows according
to collar tag, ear`tag and stable
name, on the form and present
the completed form at the time
of the test ,demonstration.
A date and place will be set
for the first of two demonstra-
tions of the California Mastitis
Test by the Public Health Vet-
erinarian. This will take place
either at the owner'e-farm, a
convenient farm in the area,
or at the Health Unit Labora-
urrin--th-e -in G"b�lerich.
At the same time, sample
botttles (one for each 'cow) and
sampling -scoop will be provid-
ed, along with instructions for
the collection of samples.
During Abe first.__ demonstra-
the history or present state .tion of the test, the technique
of mastitis is unknown or" will be described and carried
concealed.

Important Factors
Maintenance. of records and
veterinary consultation are very
important. The. program can

is neglected. The records "will
be useful during the lifetime
of a cow.
