ELECTRICITY DOES SO MUCH. , . COSTS SO LIT`T`LE
ph office of the OFir acivlsed live-
stock owners to have their herds
vaccinated against rabies without
delay. A vaccination program to
cover the thousands of farm ani-
mals in Ontario would have to be-
gin immediately in order to have
animals immunized before they are
turned to pasture in the spring.
"Apparently," said Mr. Hill, "the
Federal Government is so preoc-
cupied with internal politics they
are unable to give consideration
to the farmers of Ontario, who are
bearing the brunt of the current
epidermic. The Department of Ag-
riculture appears content to hide
behind a technicality in the legis-
lation provided for such emergen-
cies, and let the farmers carry the
load." Indications are, he said, the
epidemic will be more severe next
summer.
The Contageous Animals Dis-
ease Act is used to quarantine
herds where a case of rabies is dis-
covered, Mr. Hill continued, but
the compensation, provided under
the Act is not paid. Agricultural
Minister Harkness has stated.
compensation is not paid because
animals are not ORDERED des-
troyed. However, this point is de-
batable. Owners are advised, by
veterinarians, to dispose of infect-
ed animals.
Rabies may develop within ten
days of the bite, or the germ may
lay dormant in a cattle beast for
almost a year, before the beast be-
comes infected, Mr. Hill stated,
animals that have been stabled
since last fall are now developing
the disease,
Supporting a vaccination pro-
gram, Mr. Hill said, immunization
usually develops within 30 days
and may last for one year.
Ontario Farmers' Union will
continue to press the Federal
Government for:
1. Compensation under the Con-
tagious Animals Disease Act
for Farm Animals lost thr-
ough rabies.
2. A vaccination program to
keep losses at a minimum.
3. Treatment for humans expos-
ed to the disease.
