For some time we have heard about the rabies outbreak in west- ern Canads and particularly in Alberta. in dealing with the sub- iect. Doctor l. E. Ballantyne. Di- rector of Veterinary Services for Aiberta, stated that no human cases have occured in spite of the fact that the disease was spread throughout the entire province; that the disease front has been pushed back 400 miles north of Edmonton. A lar scale operation of controlling rs es in wild life was developed. which involves some new de-population techniques. These new methods have attracted the attention oi wild life officials in many different countries. As a result of low the population of predatory anlm . the big game animals have increased in num- bers markedly. .

..FEIDlNG AND SANITATION

The following " are fre- quently sked by swine producers: Why do sows fail to come in heat at the proper time and if bred fall to conceive? Why do nursing sows develop paralysis. young pigs have convulsions and growing pigs suffer from rickets? Why are pigs born dead or lack vitality and die soon after birth? Why are litters born hairless or in some cases blind? Why do sows furrow with no milk for the young pigs? Why d0 Welllllllls sufferrfrom diarrhoea and fail to grow? The answer to these questions is faulty diet as such conditions can usually be traced to a deficiency of either proteins. minerals or vitamins in the ration being fed- To prevent such conditions pigs must receive

properly balanced ration.

Sanitation has been defined as keeping animals in an environment in which they can live safely and reproduce efficiently. Cleanliness is the first essential clean houses. clean pens and clean Zfnund. it is good policy to segre- gate nurslng and weanling pigs from older swine and aways ltep them on clen ground if kept out- side. Separate pigs according to size and age and divide them into small groups where possible. Al- Wyn isolate sick pigs and do not return them to the herd until they have completely recovered. A thorough clean up and disinfection of swine premises should be arrled out once or twice a year and make surethat farrowing pens are pro- perly cleaned and disinfected be- fore being used for farrowing pur- poses. It is also good policy to change hog lots and outside run- ways to new ground each year and never use the same ground for young pigs year after year.

The profit derived from swine production will depend largely on maintaining pigs in a healthy thriv- ing condition and the importance of balanced diets plus sanitation. cllmot be over emphasized in at- taining this end.

PARASITES IN POULTRY

in last weeks column we dealt with External parasites of poultry. nmely. lice. mites and fleas. This week we will commence a discus- sion of round worms and tape worms. Many species of round worms and tape worms are found in the intestinal tract of poultry. When these parasites are present in large numbers they draw heavily on the nutritive Juices nd the birds do not assimilate sufficient nourish- ment. some worms attach them- selves to the lining of the intestines causing injury and some hemorr- hage. The constant irritation some- times tlilckens the Intestinal wall to such an extent that the opening of the bile ducts are closed. When not sufficient quantities of bile reach the Intestines. digestion in incomplete and the bird is under- nourished Such changes obviously are more or less chronic and are never fully repaired even though the parasites are removed. Worms also secrete two kinds of toxins or poisons. One of these destroys red blood cells. resulting in pain conditlon on the skin, comb and wattles in heavily infested birds. The other poison effects the nerves. Its action is evidenced by a partial paralysis of the legs. blindness. or a twisting of the head to one side (wry neck). Worm infestations also render birds more susceptible to disease. Home intestinal worms are so small that they can barely be seen without the aid of a microscope. Others are several inches in length. The general round worm has a direct life cycle. The female da- positsitssguinthelntsetineaef the bird if these pass out with the droppings. It has been estimat- ed that s single female worm of

There are several other species of poultry round worms. However. the two species mentioned here are the ones most commonly found in P. I. 1. birds. The tape worms are fairly widespread. The adult taps worms of poultry differ eon- aidorsbly as to lgth (1-5 to 10 inches) and the number of segments vary from two to" sixty Tape worms attach their heads in the tissues of the intestinal lining; and the segments fariberest from the head are continually breaking off and passing out with the dropp- ings. These segments contain the eggs. it is necessary for the eggs in be taken into the body of an Intermediate host in order to he- eome effective. Flys, slugs, snsles. earthworms. grasshoppers. ground beetles, and dung beetles serve in this capacity for some of the tape worms. When a bird eats one of these infested intermediate host the life cycle of the tapes start over

CONTROL AND TREATMENT No worm medicine for poultry should be used until it has been shown by postmortem examina- tion that parasites are present in sufficient numbers to justify Eegf. meat. No treatment can be mg. lustbd until it is known what kind or kinds of worms are infesting the birds. Drugs effective in re- moving one parasite may not be of any value in removing others. Moreover. no satisfactory treat- ments are available for the re- moval of some species of intesti- nal worms- The heat control of Intestinal parasites has been ob- tained by those owners who have relied exclusively on preventive measures rather than on curative ineesuores or ' treatment. C lea it houses. clean ranges, clean proper- ly balanced rations. pure water, proper disposal of sick and dead birds, the avoidance of overcrowd- ing. the separatlng of growing birds from mature stock are im- portant factors in the control of worm lnfestati . Worm remedies cannot take th eplace of sanitation. They do not destroy worm eggs but merely expel the parasites. or In the case of tape worms, only portions of the parasite. In fact, flocks there is not often need for warm remedies.
