Au - other, wlio has a herd of fine - .jerseys, claims that mastitis gob. blas up at Ieast a quarter of his milk check each twelve months. That's real motley! :land 1 hardly :need to tell any of yoit that Inas- titis is one of the most serious problems any dairymen has to face, especially during this season when cotes are kept hi confinement. For many farmers say that, while their tens seldo134 showan infected udder during the summer, the trouble flares up in the whiter- -liter. F M e Mastitis is a disease caused by :an invasion of organisms into the adder through the teat canal. Usu- ally this happens when the udder has been injured or chilled. The organisms clo not come from some,. thing the cow ate or drank, They must enter through the teat canal to get into the udder. k * M When these .organisms enter the udder, they attack the milk -secret- ing tissue, The cow's body attempts a defense by replacing the milk - secreting tissue with scar tissue. This explains why mastitis should be treated at once when discovered. if the infection is allowed to re- main, permanent damage is done. Milk -secreting tissue can't he re- placed. "fhere are several types of or- ganisms that produce mastitis. They are found in dirty milking machines, udder, of diseased cows and in dirty stables and lots. Then when a cnww's udder is bruised, the germs get their chance. Here are some of the common rauses of mastitis: 1. Cuts and scratches of teats or udder- These can iie canned by -seeeesmaaiee. barbed wire in fences or lying loose in the yard, nails in hoards, e tc. 2. Trampling be other rows. Stalls that are too narrow or short, or loafing sheds that arc ton small, will lead to more tr.-ate stepped on by other cow's. 3, improper use of milking ma- chines. A good milking machine properly used won't cause masti- tis. But some dairvnten set the vacuum too high. use old and bro- ken teat cups, let the pulsator become irregular, or leave the ma- chine on too long. One day an observer saw e. farmerput the milker on a nice heifer, then run out to feed the. logs. The machine stayed on the heifer 15 minutes, actually pulling 0--.w....:. the teat inside out. :F r:. 4. Bruising and chilling, high door sills, gates which let cows o ut to pasture but keep the hogs in, cold, wet floors, dirty, muddy yards, leaving cows outside too long in freezing weather -all these Five mastitis germs a chance. :F xw There are ways to prevent mas- this. And prevention is a lot cheaper than trying to cure the disease. :c First step alight be to elcau up the cow and the yard. Clip the underlines, flanks and thighs • of your cows. Concrete approaches and yards help to keep udders out of the stud. At least, make sure 'the yard will drain readily. Cut doyen any high door sills. Dchorn :the cows.
