Notifiaction of Animal Disease
Horses, miles and asses of all
ages and classes are liable to contract
any of the serious contagious diseases
of the skin known, as mange, scabies
or itch. 'Mange is scheduled under
the Animals ,Contagious Diseases Act,
which requires ' that every owner,
breeder, dealer or veterinary surg-
eon suspecting the existence of this
disease shall immediately notify the
nearest .veterinary inspector. Treat-
ment is carried out under gatarantine,
the following mixture being used of-
ficially for 'hand treatment under the
supervision of an inspector: Sulphur,
2 pounds; oil of tar, 8 "ounces,; raw
linseed oil, :1 gallon.
Pig Feeding tMethods
(Al'though there are several meth -
methods of preparing meal mixtures
for feeding pigs, the following rules
are recommended as safe practices in
producing hogs of the desired type:
'tib) 'Grind all grain. Fine grinding is.
recommended especially ' for young `y
pigs, (2) Soak meal mixture between ,
feeds; do not use too much water but
feed as a'fairly thick slop. (13) Hand
feeding is the best method for se-
curing hogs of a desirable type, (4)
11 necessary, a self=feeder may be
used after pigs, have reached the
growing stage of development. 0)_
'Keep pails, troughs and other feeding
equipment clean. Mouldy or decay-
ing .matter will cause feeding trou-
bles, and I(0) Supply clean drinking
water.
Indigestible (Poultry Feeds
Of the slaughter house by-products
for the feeding of poultry, neat
meals or meat scraps are by far the
most cor'tnonly used- and are the
standard animal protein supplements
tin poultry rations. They vary greatly
in analysis- according .to the amount
of bone material they contain but are
usually .purchased on a guaranteed
analysis. 'T'he poorer grades contain-
ing quantities of hoof and horn
should not be tolerated as poultry
feed as these products (hoof and
horn) are practically indiges'tible to
poultry, With a little experience, it
is possible to tell at a glance whether
the '.brand is suitable for feed or not,
but,if in doubt, pour a little, boiling
water on a sample, and the smell aris-
ing should settle the matter even with
the .inexperienced. If the odour is
foetid the sample is unfit for food,
Ham and Bacon Exports to .G.B.
Estimated at 60,000,000 Pounds
Department of Agniculture officials
at Ottawa, now estimate that 60,-
000,000 pounds of ham and bacon will
be exported from 'Canada to 'Great
!Britain this year, 'Last spring' the es-,
tititatis was 50;000,000, but already the
25,000,0.00 mark has been passed and
the best half of the ye'ar'dtas yet to
come. The increase in the exchange to
30 cents on the pound sterling, above
what the Canadian Government guar-
anteed in its stabilization• fund, will
.eircr^rage the bacon trade as well as
the live cattle.
Livestock Survey
G. H. Duncan, Livestock Investi-
gator, Ontario 'Marketing IBo'•ard, Inas
completed . a'+survey of the livestock
population' of Huron County. The in-
quiry is the 'first of a series .which will
be made into all the Cattle counties. of :
the !Province. Complete statistics, on
the'nti'mber df 'feeder cattle now avail-
able, present weight, number and ap-'
proxittsate date when cattle are fin-
ished, method of m'arke'ting to be fol-
lowed (drover, s'toc'kyard, direct ex-
port, etc.) and a comparison with the
situation a year ago have been ga'th
ered,
tT'he survey 'thus makes availalble'
data as to the total supplies available
and production possibilities of the
Province, It is hoped, the report when, .
completed will 'fill a long felt need
for accurate in'form'ation as to the
'true situation' of the Ontario cattle
dustry.
