Livestock" Management

Handling of stock is a venture :hat in this day and age is 3 high- 1y competitive business. In order ;o meet the competition it is neces- guy to increase the elliciency or production. Since labor is always an important factor. each farmer should take time during this sea- son of the year to become really critical of his barn layout. Does he take too much time at his mores? Is every thing placed most conveniently? Can new labor-savers he built or installed to relieve him or some heavy labor?

one of the best ways ol getting new ideas is to visit your neigh- liors. Look around his barn and see how he is doing things. You may: have heard of I new barn having been built within reasonable driving distance. Without doubt this farmer uill have some astute ideas on biims and may have adopted some iie.v plans. A trip to see his barn uill be very worthwhile.

Another way to improve your ham management is to study the larin magazines and Government bulletins. Fieldmcn vvlll also call it desired, and will discuss barn problems with you. A lew minutes saved each day is I signpost to successful farmiing. If you can do more work each day and do it with loss labor you are well on the way.

In spite ol the above, all larniers should realize that successful. live- stock farming can only be had Iiy equally complete attention to three factors; management, breed- Inf; and leading. By neglecting any one, a. farmer will have disappoint- ing results. Some become discour- uired when after improving one mior suoli as using a top-notch hull. success is not obtained. The nouble probably is in the fact that he did not feed enough of I. bal- mired ration or perhaps his man- nrrment was at lault. Now is the nine to examine your livestock program. Make it the success it 0llRllt'T-0 be. Money can be made even though the market price lor snmc products is low.

hoop Parasites

Control procedures in the treat- ment of lnternal Parasites in sheep dung Phenothiaaine along with the instructions for using Plieonel.hia- 7ine tnblets were discussed in last wi-diiesday's column. The lollowing ;iiliCIE deals with How to Admin- i.iei- the Treatment and certain Precautionary measures to be ob-

rcrvcd. l

How to Administer Treatment

The lollowlng instructions should he closely followed:

1. Pen the sheep quietly and securely lor treatment.

2. Do not last sheep belore or after dosing.

3. It treatment is given just prior in turning the animals to summer pasture. hold the llock lor at least :4 hours to give the drug a chance to act, alter which there is no danger of contaminating the sum- mer pasture.

4. Have an assistant hold the VilP9p between his legs in such a My that the neck. not the should- err. is between the knees. Avoid s'lppery floors, and place the sheep's hind-qiiaruira in a corner against the wall. The nialn object is to pic-vent he aiiinial lroir. sitting dmvii, from moving the body from side to side, or lrom swinging its head sideways.

5. Use a mouth spreader. with a .tl)lt('MI ol about 2 320 inches to six. inches. is notqtruggllng violently. The person giving the tabllts opens the animal's mouth and inserts the mouth spread so that he tongue is held lor-ward underneath the lower

bar or the spreader. Holding the tsblet between the 'thumb and thc lii-at two lingers. the tablet is then brought well down to the root of the tongue by the lingers, where it is released and pushed over the "hump" ol the tongue by the centre linger. To assist swallow- ing, the spreader is quickly taken out ol the mouth and the assistant releases the pressure from the sides of the head and neck so that the animal can lower its head. The operatlon is repeated carefully for each tablet. With experience the tablets can be adir..'nistered very rapidly.

Note: Careless or inexpcrt dosing may result in the accidental intro- duction ol a tablet into the laryniz, or windpipe: in such a case. the sheep should be given a drench of water and should be shaken with its head down. Always keep handy a drenching bottle filled with water. Each person usually develops his own method of adininlsteriiig tab- lets. One substitute for the use of the lingers is to employ a "bal- ling gun" made of a short piece of rubber hose pipe 33 inches in- side cliamcter with asiniple wooden plunger.

Precautions

Phenothiardne has been used for many thousands ol sheep in Can- ada and has proved to be remark- ably salo and ellicient for general use. However. in common with all drugs, it must not be used pro- miscuousiy; and ulien it has not been used before on a certain llook. it is better to treat two or three animals lirst.in order to be sure that no peculiar conditions are pre- sent and that the incclianical port of the dosing can be done easily. Do not treat pregnant ewes near- er than one month to lambing.

Dlscoloi-atloln of Wu ol

The urine ol treated animals contains large amounts of a red stain for four days alter dosing. In the ease ol ewes that are not shorn. if precautions are not taken a part of the fleece may be per- manently atainad. The flock should be kept in a well-bedded pen or yard. Avoid bare lloors or yards with a heavy clay or otherwise impervious surlace. If it can be arranged to have the flock shorn and then treated 24 hours before being turned to summer pasture, daiigei- of wool stains will be avoid- ed. The young lambs are likely to become stained with urine in var- ious degrees, depending upon how they nurse. Stains on lambs are not serious. as they will grow out and will not be noticeable by mid- summer.

In order to raise sheep profitably it is absolutely necessary to proc- tico control and preventative meas- urcs in relerenoe to Internal Par- asites. If you have any questions oi' inquiries to make do not hesit- ate in get in touch with the Veter- inary Service Branch. P. O. Box 404. or 1851 Prince Street, Clinriritt.o- town. P. l. I.
