Change Vote Rights
A notice of motion to amend the
constitut}-bn was presented. This
change in the constitution would
give all township federation offi-
cials the right to vote at the coun-
ty annual meeting. At the present
time only two representatives from
each township are entitled to vote
and one from each affiliated or-
ganization. The representation
from the affiliated organizations
would remain the same. It was
felt that this would encourage more
people to attend the county anneal
meeting.
It was decided to have the an-
nual county banquet on a separate
date from the annual meeting. It
was tentatively decided to hold the
banquet. on October 29 with Cam-
eron McTaggart, of Glencoe, as
guest speaker and to have the
annual meeting on November 12..

THE HURON, EXPOSITOR
Severity of C ged.iosis Can
Be controlled in Poultry But
No Check Against Infection
Many diseases raise havoc with
poultry, but none is more prevalent
than coccidiosis. The disease has
shown a marked increase over the
past 50 years until today every
chicken is probably infected at one
time or another.
Research to date has been un-
successful in :Ending a means to
stamp out the disease, but ways
have been found to make it less
dangerous.
Coccidiosis is caused, by a para-
site which comes from the same
group as the organism which caus-
es malaria in humans, The para-
site can attack any animal and has
been known to occur in man. But,
coccidia species which attack one
animal rarely attack any other, For
example, the'Species found in chick-
ens do not attack turkeys.
Eight different species of cocci-
dia attack chickens. Six cause on-
ly mild if any symptoms, but two
are extremely dangerous. These
attack the cecal pouch (blind gut)
and the small intestine and, may
cause high mortality.
Passed Through Droppings
Coccidiosis is passed from infect-
edbirds to healthy birds through
droppings. Twenty-four hours after
the droppings leave a sick bird's
body, the parasite which is most
common comes infective. The cyst
wall which it has .built around it-
self enables it to withstand the
journey into the bird's digestive
tract. Within the cyst the parasite

This cyst is what healthy chick-
ens pick up as they grub for food.
When the coccidia get into the di-
gestive tract, they invade the epith-
elial (gut lining) cells, and multi-
ply at a fantastic rate. From the
beginning eight which entered the
body in the cyst, a bird is capable
of producing 2,160,000 coccidia.
the bird picks up more than one
cyst, the number is proportionate-
ly greater.
This rapid multiplication causes
the invaded cells to rupture and the
then -sick b•rds bleed from the anus.
If the chickens recover from the
attack, they become immune to the
disease. The worse the attack, the
greater the immunity. Repeated
light infections will give the same
immunity as one •heavy infection,

type of coccidiosis and later die of
another. For example. 'a chicken
may become immune to cecal cocci-
diosis and die of the intestinal var-
iety.
There are many signs and symp-
tams which tell the poultry farmer
his flock is infected. He may be
forewarned by a sudden drop in
the flock's food consumption. This
test may not help the farmer wh
keeps only a few birds, but it Is
an excellent test for broiler farm
operators and others with large
flocks who use large quantities of
feed.
Loss of appetite is the only sign
of illness until about.the fifth day
after the bird has become infect-
ed. Between the fourth and sixth
days, the infected cells rupture and
the chicken shows bloody drop-
pings. It becomes listless and is
unable to keep itself warm. Its
temperature may drop from seven
to twenty degrees.
No one really knows what caus-
es this temperature drop. A current
theory is that the parasite causes -
a reaction in the chicken which
prevents it from using nutrients,
like sugar, that it has stored in its
body. This blocks the transfer of
stored food into energy for
warmth. Reduced muscular ac-
tivity results. If the chicken lives
through the seventh or eighth day,
it probably will recover. It will
have regained its health .by about
the tenth day.
Drugs a Preventative
There are several things the
poultry farmer can do to control
the incidence and severity of coc-
cidiosis. Drugs like the sulphas or
arsenicals can prevent the disease
from getting started. Many com-
panies produce feeds fortified with
these drugs. Not much of a drug
is needed to sharply reduce •the in-
cidence of the disease. The com-
bination is somewhat more expen-
sive than regular feed.
Fortified feed can be fed regular-
ly or can be administered when
the first symptom (loss of appe-
tite) appears, Birds may be infect-
ed even if they haven't reached the
stage where outward symptoms ap-
pear, and if given .medication, the
disease may be held in check.
When the medication is discontin-
ued, however, the disease will take
hold, but the attack will be less
severe.
For example, assume we have a
1,000 bird flock. Perhaps coccidia
is carried in on a boot and two
chickens get infected. • They prob-
ably will get mild cases and symp-
toms won't be noticeable, not even
bloody droppings. However, their
droppings probably will infect 20
more birds. These 20 will have a
more severe case and will be able
to infect the rest of the flock.
When these birds are noticeably
sick, then isithe best time to put
e flock on fortified feed. It prob-
ly won't help those birds which
already have outward symptoms,
but it will stave off the disease in
the re,t.
1. Chickens can be inoculated
rgainst the disease. This is expen-
sive, and it is difficult to give a bird
just the right dose to make it suf-
ficiently immune. The danger of
infection from another species still .doubt, a butler, a chauffeur and

the most successful means of re-

birds warm raises their body tear,

to resist the disease.

If science knew 'what did th

means to ,;block the disease. In-
tensive research is going on aloe
that line. Until such a finding po
up, however, these are the facts:
It is impossible to prevent infec
tion in your flock, but you can con
trol the severity. You can watch
for the disease by checking feed
trays, droppings, and general ap-
pearance. Fortified( feed, inocula-
tion, and low. humidity will stave
off infection. But, at present,
there is no known way to get rid
of the infection once the symptoms
begin.
The practical thing to'do is keep
infected chickens warm and away
from the healthy ones.
