in last week's column we dee- i-ribcd the outbreak of Anthrax in Western Prince County. There have been no new developments and the disease is confined to two promises. May we take this op- porlunity to say again that Anth- ray is not a contagious disease and can oruy be contracted by l'l'lllI.aCI. with infected material or lili! carcass of a dead animal uliicli has died from Anthrax.

Internal saruallea of Swine

swine suffer from both the lung worm and intestinal round worm. The common intestinal round worm is the one most prevalent in Alberta. and is the cause substantial annual loss. The adult wonn living in the intestinal tract causes irritation and damsg to the intestinal wall, resulting in riitcritis and unthrifti ess. They also render the anima 'more sus- ceptible to diarrhoelc infections hy the, damage done to the muc- nus membranes of the intestinal wa.il.. The immature worms mi- grate through the lungs. and may rouse extensive damage. resulting in pneumonia or a cough in young pigs. The worms then mature in the intestines.

Well fed, healthy swine some- times cairy worm infestation with- mil. showing any marked disturb- mice, a fact which again points to the advisability of proper feed- ing and management in disease prevention. However. parasites should not be tolerated. If they me not producing visible symptoms iliry tire a. constant threat and pi-cdispoa: the animal to other tiisense conditions.

Control llbr control to be logical it is

necessary to know something of the life history of the parasite.

The adults in the intestine lay 8-

numerous eggs which pass out with the manure, contaminating the soil. feed utensils and pas- lures. These eggs or cva are swallowed by animals with their feed and hatch into larval worms which, before ” i establish- ed as adult worms in the Intestine, migrate through the lungs and liver, causing extensive damage.

Prevention and Treatment

A study of the life history of the worm makes it easily under- standable why sanitation is so no- Wbary in the control of this parasite. '13-eatment alone. while it may destroy and remove most of the adult worms in the inter- tines, will not control the parasite.

One or two months before far- Towins the sow should be treated for worms. The farrowlng pen is cleansed and disinfected to re- ninve all worms and larvae. A good disinfectant is made by dissolv- ing one pound of lye in 80 gal- lons of boiling water. This is used while it is still hot. After farrow- llui. the sow and litter are moved on to clean ground. and every ei- fnrl. is made to keep the pigs from becoming exposed to ground and pasture l”"'"l ears from the manure of infected hogs.

chiatric (behavior) symptoms were selected for the experiment. "Two simple trepanations (cutting open- ings through the skull to the brain) were made under local an- esthesia at the classic sites for lobotomy according to Drs. Free- man and Watts and 4 cc. of 2 per cent procaine were injected very slowly. Improvement followed which continued for several days. The favorable results obtained from the procaine block of the nerves show- ed that the operation lobotomy would be successful if tried and it was carried out. The symptoms of all three patients were relieved and two were discharged directly to their homes" 5

However. these physicians and others now will study this nerve blocking method of treatment "and it may be that a series of prefront- al procaine injections will bring about a cure without the necessity of operation."

It is comforting to patient. his family and the physician to know beforehand that the success of the operation is assured , other things being equal.

OLD ITIMERB AND OLD HOMERS

1

Old Home Week with its num- erous projects would be as mean- ingless as a history book that gives, datt.-E and events without an understanding of the feelings of the people involved, were it not for the broad and gleaming strand that weaves in and out of every activity.

Call it the joy of getting back to the friends and scenes of child- hood, or neighbourliness, or sim- ple friendliness that wants share good things and good times.

is the all-pervading good-will that gives Old Home Week real value and significance.

Last Wednesday, somewhat gid- dji from an over-abundance of Is and blueberries, washed down by a dipperful of the ambrosial water from the moss-covered bucket that hung land still hangs here and there) in the well, we! dealt rather harshly with the Old Timer. On first thought. the chronic Old Timer should be a happy Old Homer. But this isn't so. What a wonderful chance, we suggested to him, Old Home week offers to meet friends of the past. But the Old Timer wasn't even sure about that. Old Home Week isn't what. it used to be. People now run here and there. sleep at hotels and summer ca- bins one scarcely sees them. Years ago, why there would be twenty or more staying at the farm house. That was real hos- pitality, said Old Timer.

We didn't argue. but checked up. Aunt Emma did come to Uncle Henry and Cousin Nora with her six children. Others dropped in for the day and often stayed for the entire summer. There was a grand bustle of cooking and bak- lug and eating. Everybody had a good time Everybody? Except the women who toiled the kitchen and seldom got to the festivities. "No, come to think of it," said one woman, "it wasn't fun. I taught during the winter and dreaded the summer. Com- pany! All the time!"

A number of men and women recalled that Old Home Week (or Exhibition Week) and often the entire summer, meant sleepless nights in a hot attic, to make room for extra guests. On the other hand. of course. some didn't mind the heat and wouldn't ex- change the memory of the doings in their hide-away, for anything!

We'll leave the extreme Old Time (we're all like him to a. de- greel. He doesn't want to come to the Exhibition Grounds. any- way. Thcre are too many people, people he doesn't know, (and like- ly doesn't care to know). It is too noisy. The show is rougher than in his day. And worst of all, friends from far away have chang- ed! He'd really rather brood at home about the past.
