It will be more so to those who have had the heart­ breaking experience of ”Pet Lambs”, which were fine in the morning, sick at night and dead the next day. The killer was nine times out of ten—Stiff Lamb or white muscle disease. Being rather interested in sheep we try to keep abreast with the latest. Michigan State College Researchers have checked the disease with sizable amounts of Vitamin E given orally as soon as the disease is noted. Treatment: 100 milligram dose or capsule daily of Vitamin E or alpha-toco­ pherol. Repeat daily until all symptoms disappear. The next step is to supplement the creep ration with % wheat or 1/10 wheat germ meal. This will give the lamb sufficient to see him through. Does this treatment work?

Prevention of stiff lamb, of course is good rations of high quality hay to pregnant ewes. Pasture is thought to contain enough Vitamin E to ward off the disease.
