As a safeguard health,.

Unit under supervision of Dr.
T. R. Melody.
It is intended that dairy far-
mers should be able to detect
mastitis in its early stages and
predict with Accuracy which

disease,
This will he achieved through

thia program, the situation pb,
tains where a public health in-
terest may cause monetary
benefits to be harvested by dairy
farmers.
Application forms anti de-
scription of the program. will be
provided to herd owners, and
when completed by those who
wish to participate they should
be returned to the Huron County
Health Unit, Goderich,. A num-
ber of application forms have
already been signed and sent
in.
For successful operation of
the program, co-operation and
concerted action by practising
veterinarians, public health
agencies, dairy farmers, milk
plants, field representatives of
the dairy branch of the Ontario
Department of Agriculture and
the Ontario Veterinary College
will be necessary.
Many of the causative agents
involved in bovine mastitis are
capable of causing disease in
humans. The indiscriminate use
of antibiotics gives rise to the

IMPORTANT FACT09.
Maintenance of records and
v et er leery consultation are
very important. The program
cannot yield results wheneithpr
Is nelected. The records will
usefulbe during the lifetime of
a cow.
It is intended, that, early de-
tection and treatment will be
More satisfactory to all con-
cerned than the treatment of ful-
Minating (curdled milk.) eases
only. Infusion of udders of dry
cows with the proper antibiotic
or chemotherapeutic agent will
be possible when proper infor-
mation Is available through
testing and recording.
The currently excessive use
of antibiotics in the control of
mastitis will be appreciably re-
duced. The volume of mastitis
milk on the market will be re-
duced. These aspects will serve
the interests of public health.
It Is reasonable to assume
that following the advent of a
convenient test, e.g., Gel Test,
to detect the presence of high
cellular milk that standards for
this property may be set. These
standards would require the
continued surveillance of a
milking herd by means of a
test for the detection of leu-
cocytes. If and when these things
come to pass, the program will
serve another purpose--a guide
creates a dangerous situation.
After intrainammary infus-
ion, antibiotics may be found
in the milk in varying concen-
trations for :as long as, three
days. Consumption of such milk
hes been blamed for some al-
lergies in humans so that the
subsequent use of these anti-
biotics' to control a disease in
'the sensitive individual may
cause complications,
This will take place either at
the owner's farm, convenient
farm in the area or at the Health
Unit Laboratery in the office
at QederiCh.
At the same time sample bot-
tles (1 for each cow) and samp-
ling scoop will be provided,
along with instructions for the
collection of samples.

tion of the test, the technique

A bold, new approach to farm
marketing and the handling of
food products is proposed in
legislation introduced to the
26th Parliament of Ontario 'cy
Agriculture Minister William
A..Stewart.
It provides for the establish-
ment of a food council rep-
resenting the four major groups
concerned in the production and
marketing of food - farmers or
prere.ary producers, .p.roces-
sors„ distributors and consum-
ers. The food council will have
at :ease five members and its
terms of reference are quite

It will include persons actively

The food council will have
four main sections; for fresh

Mr. Stewart, "Their inclusion
on the council should provide
them with the benefits of the
producers' opinions, the con-
