In attempting to control those internal parasites of sheep. men- tioned. it should be remembered that those harmful parasites sur- vive the winter inside the adult sheep and that the pastures have been cleaned of many of the young lntective worms by the severe winter weather. The most effective

control is. ther o, in-remove the worms that - t pas- tures when thdy . p , . turned

intestinal worms in sheep. The method of control is as fol-

treated at any time between the iirsi of February and one month lietore lamblng, or between five days after lambing and 24 hours before they are turned on pas- lure. it is important that all sheep be treated at the same time. If for any reason one or two sheep can- not be treated with the rest of the (lock they should be kept indoors and not allowed on grass with the rest (ll tha flock until 24 hours af- ter they have been treated. it the season of heavy frost has passed. rarc should be illicit to keep llld flock all any grass-covered land before they have been treated. If this is tint done the untreated ani- mals will infect the grass. and the young worms that develop will infect the sheep and lambs after they are turned out. This is the main cause of unsatisfactory re- sults in using this method of con- trolling sheep parasites.

t2t Although this treatment us- pally prevents stomach worms and nodular disease of lambs, signs of the stomach worm should be watched for in,July. August and early September. infected lambs will show the symptoms described

It is important to have an ac- curate diagnosis made. This can- not ba done without making a microscopical examination of the cecal and intestinal contents. Due to the fact that the parasites are exceptionally resistant to most of the common disinfectants it is extremely difficult. if not - slble. to completely free the poul- try house oi all parasites when cleaning and disinfecting. Usually serious outbreaks with consequent high mortality. can be prevented if the quarters are kept dry.

Various 'h 4 of tr ' with drugs have been tried and several of these have proven suc- cessful. if any one has found that a certain treatment has prevented serious losses year after year. I would not suggest that he change to some other form of medication. Some of the Sulfa drugs. especially sulfa-methazinepsulf uxidlns and sulfaqulnoxallne have been used extensively and found of definite value in the treatment oi flocks

" t ” with Coccldlosls. One that can be administered in the drink- ing water is preferred to one that has to be mixed in the mash. Sick chickens or poults will when they will not eat.

No hard and fast rules can be laid down regarding the number oi days a flock should be treated with Sulfa drugs. and it is advis- able before commencing treatment, to discuss the situation with some who thoroughly ltlnderatands their

use.

The birds should not be hushed at any time while they are being treated with Sulfa drugs. If the drug is administered in the drink- ing water. no other liquid should be given to the birds while they are . elving the treatment.
