The Seaforth News, 1953-06-18, Page 7Vaccdnuti!rh for SMeweestle die - ease without handling a single bird may be just around the cor- ner, In fact, if you live in cer- tain states, it may already have arrived, The spray method of vaccina- tion is already in limited use in Delaware, Georgia, Maine, Mas- sachusetts, Texas; Virginia, Wash- ington, and' possibly one or two other states, It's also being tried out in Canada. M A. The now system isn't perfected enough yet for individual poultry- men to use. Mostly, it's being used either by college poultry• men or hatchery operators. The main thing that seems to be holding it up is that we don't yet have the right kind of equip- ment for spraying. It's a tough engineering problem to come up with a device that will produce a fine enough mist in measured amounts. Most of the vaccine being used is regular intra -nasal vaccine, al- though it's likely that special types of vaccines will also be de- veloped before too long. Here's how sprayed vaccine has worked out in some tests: In Washington State, Dr, C. M, Hamilton, veterinarian at the Western Washington Experiment Station, has vaccinated more than 700,000 birds, all the way from day-old chicks to laying hens, with good results. Dr. Hsnilto.n says that sprayed vaccine gives as good protection as either the eye or nose -drop method, He uses intra -nasal virus, which he dilutes, and sprays with an ordinary household insecticide sprayer. He sprays broiler chicks at eve day old, and gives thein a booster swatting at 31/2 to 4 weeks at age. When they didn't get the booster shot, he got some out- breaks of Newcastle starting at five to six weeks of age. n * s Pullets raised for layers get a Wester shot at the time they go into the laying house. Dr. Hamilton got good immu- nity when he sprayed laying hens, There was no change in egg quality, and practically no effect an the 65% rate of lay. Irl Massachusetts, Dr. Stephen !a. Hitcliner, whose research paved the way for the intra -nasal vaccine, has been using sprayed vaccine, mainly as a "booster" shot, SAU.Tel SA1.116 °'This is our latest model equipped 'with a• -'.male back seat driver:" lhusu blear: ,oinose• drop vaccine wine) they are one day old. Then he sprays them at four weeks, and in the case of laying flock replacement pullets, again just before they are housed. When Dr. Hitchnor ]las need the spray an day-old chicks, he's sometimes seen complications with other diseases such as bron- chitis and chronic respiratory disease. 1)i. Fiitcluese says that the dif' terence between his results and Dr, Hamilton's may be due to dif- ferences in fineness of spray, or dilution of the vaccine. x q In Canada, spray vaccination is being used to protect chicks against bronchitis as well as New- castle disease. Dr, J. F. Crawley of the Uni- versity of Toronto reports that vaccines for the two diseases can be mixed and sprayed at one time, and tilos one man can vaccinate 10,000 birds an horn'. However, he learns that the bronchitis vaccine should be used only on chicks that have paren- tal immunity to bronchitis. In other words, the hatching, eggs must be from hens that have had bronchitis and recovered. With as much experiinental work going on, both at experi- ment stations and in private lab- oratot'ies, we shouldn't have to wait ton long before someone cones up. with a spray system that everyone can use. • Prospective Brides .Parade In Style "See the island of a thousand gorgeous girls. Senti-weekly sailings. See the most typical part of Spain . and judge beauty for yourself by the gold on her bosons.. . Who could resist such at invi- tation? In all Europe there's probably no wider marriage market than the Sunday parade of bridal bargains in the lush Mediterranean isle of Ibiza. All the local bachelors line the white cobbled stree and at the stroke of noon all the eligible women sweep in their hundreds into the Paseo Vara de Rey There are senoritas short, tall, and slim, brunette and blonde. but mostly the girls are brown - eyed and broad in the beam, peasant pin-ups wearing Fahr or five flouncy petticoats. Loaded with jewellery, they've cashed the family fortune into gold and hung it tinkling around their necks. By Ibizan custom, the gold ornaments indicate so- cial position as well as prospec- tive dowry. Chains and pendants, lockets and crosses, cupids, threaded necklets or sovereigns —everything they have is 00 show. The uglier the girl, the great- er the glitter. She's had more time to collect. Surveying the glittering parade, a prospective bridegroom can choose between the latest line in good -lookers or the dames with a dowry. And he generally takes a sensible 'bierl,d of both if he can.

A Prayer For Her Majesty Churches of all deuoninations throughout the country observed a special day of intercession and dedication in connection with the Coronation of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second. Christian Scientists welcomed tine occasion for joining with their .fellow Christians in prayer for the well-being of Her Majes- ty and of all her Realms and Territories. The Queen'e appeal in her Christmas message for the pray- ers of all her people at the time of her Coronation meets with heartfelt and loyal response. No One can be unmindful of the high responsibilities Her Majesty is called upon to carry. Christian Scientists rejoice with grateful hearts in the assurance of the ever -presence of 'God who is Love, and whose aid and coin - Pert make burdens light. Their thoughts s tura to the tl mo 0 g gds f the Psahnist: "Great peace have they which love Thy law."

Archibald Rutledge 'in Coronet, (Sept. i, tells of a young Negro minister coming into Carolina with what was reported tn. be tt new and radical doctrine.

"These young people," he en: - plained, his eyes glinting with the lights of ancient wisdom, "don't really want religion. What they love IS to have somebody tell them how they can sin and be happy."
