Department of Agriculture f Facts About Mumis Maatitis or Garget is I disease which causes great economic losses among dairy cattle, Approximately one third of all milking cows hIVO ,,,mi,gd quarters during some or an of their milking period. The nature of Mastiiis is an inflamma- ilcrl of two or more tluutm. -1- most always due to infection. It ,,,..,i be chronic or acute. The acute type accounts forabout 2-5 per- cent of all Mastitls. There are ' many cred!-unslnz c3ubES.. The most common is in- My, Improper milking practices such as too much vacuum on milk- inc machines. leaving machines on too long. and not preparing the udder for quick letdown, predis- pose to Mastitia. Inaanitery stables and milking practices are also im- portant predisposing factors. Chil- ling or heavy protein feeding seems in lower resistance to udder in- ieclion. In acute Mastltis the symptoms are generally a hot. swollen or caked udder which is very painful to the touch. There ,is usually a pink discoloration due to conges- l,nl1 .-it the base of the test which my darken in very acute cases 1,, 3 red or purple, followed bv gaiwrcne. Milk secretion is usually soimt and often watery. stringy or moody. One or more quarters may be affected. The invading germs may remain localized or invade tiie blood stream causing systematic infection. In the symptoms of chronic lilastitis the mill; is usually ab- normal. although there may be no noticeable inflammation of the quarter. There usually is thicken- ing of the udder tissue but the quarter becomes reduced in size because of the drop in production. Important Rules The following six rules should I)C strictly adhered to to prevent losses by eradicating and controlling Mastites: 1. sanitation-clean habits of milking and management. mi. The udder must be washed with an appropriate disinfectant iiefore each milklng.- A separate cloth should be used' for each cow and the disinfectant should. be changed s ut every four cows. lb). wet milking should not be practiced, fc). The person.stripping should uash his hands after each OOW is finished. (d). All millflnl equipment mull iv kept clean. (-1. Test cups should be disin- milked and between milklngs. , iii. The cows should be kept on clean, dry bedding. 2, Bacteriological sxunlnstion of the milk from eachiquarter of each cow should be done r ulsrly lance at month if n asary). suspicious cows should always be tested. an new replacements should be tested. 3. segregation-Infected cows should be placed at the end of the milking line and milked last. In- tiirable chronic cases should be slaughtered. ' 4. All cases of Mestitis must be treated early and until the infec- tion clears up. Injuries to the test or udder should be treated. 5, Milking practices and manage- iiiont. tar. Milk as soon as possible after the udder is washed. ihi. The machine should never he left on too long. lei. Wet milking should not be practiced A idi, Good bedding should be piovided to keep udder clean and protect them from injuries. and rriirl. 6. Quarantine and Isolation. iai. Replacements must beisolst- on until the milk is certified free firm infection. Cows showing ab- l'.ilTIIl3.I discharge from the tents or iiddef should be isolated. Mnstitls can be controlled. One of the most important parts of the Mastitis Control program is the treatment of infected animals. in the majority of cases early diagnosis of infection, followed by illompt treatment results in a cure. The udder is exposed to many kinds of injuries and adverse con- ditions every day. The testing and treating must be done on a regular Wlilram rather than a "hit anti iiiiss" basis. Bacteriological ex- amination of the milk from each quuier should be done. where pos- sible, about ten days after treat- ment to be certain that infection has cleared up. Consult your district veterinarian for a satisfactory control program. It is also advisable to contact him as soon as any abnormal condition is noticed. By controlling Maatltls many thousands of dollars can be saved by dalrymen annually, and the danger of spreading disease to humans will be greatly reduc- ed. Pastenrlution or Milk And It: Functions The guard against the spread of disease through milk, pasteurization is generally adopted, especially for the fluid milk and cream trade. Its object is to make good milk - a safe milk, It cannot hope to turn had milk into good clean milk. Pas-teurizatlon will kill infections. germs and about 009?: of ther bacteria. which though not d sease producing will affect the quality of the milk. Pssteurizstion will de- lay further spoilage and lengthen the keeping quality of poor milk. but it cannot restore the quality of clean milk lost through bacterial growth previous to pasteurization. It cannot replace cleanliness in production. Strictly speaking. clean milk should contain neither foreign matter nor any foreign bacteria whatever. It is sufficient 'to con- sider clean milk as milk from healthy cows. free from dirt and foreign matter containing only a small number of bacteria, none of which are disease producing. Tme presence of visible dirt when milk is filtered is often taken as a measure of its uncieanllness. Vis- ible dirt is a sign of gross care- lessneu is handling of milk and such milk will have a high num- ber of germs. - Milk may be seriously contamin- ated and not show visible dirt. be bacteriologically clean. Manure is Valuable Every year many thousiihds of dollars worth of plant food is lost through improper handling of manure. In Prince Edward Island the present annual production of manure. not including bedding. is estimated to be one and a half miluon tons. Since a ton of aver- age farm manure contains ap- proximately l0 pounds of nitrogen. 5 pounds of phosphoric acid. and 10 pounds of potash, the one and a half million tons would contain. in round fimires, 9,000 tons of nitrogen, 3,400 tons of phosphoric acid, and 7,500 tons of potash. Thu: amounts are approximately equivalent to 27,000 tons of am- ' i-iitrate. 17,000 tons of auperphosphate, and 12.000 tons of muriste of potash respectively. The percentage of this plant food which finally reaches the soil depends on the amount of manure returned to the land and the care which it receives in the meantime. Although it is not possible to pre- vent all loss every effort should be made to keep it at -a minimum. The fact that the liquid portion of the manure contains about half the nitrogen and three-quarters of the potash indicates the import- ance of a tight stable floor and glitter and the use of adequate absorbent bedding. The addition of superphosphate to the gutter not only raises the phos horus content of the manure. it hi to helps absorb the liquid portion and reduced the loss of nitrogen in the form of ammonia. The shorter the time manure is stored the less chance there is for loss. And the sooner after spread- ing it is worked in the better. Under usual conditions manure piled for six months loses ap- proximately half its value. At the present price of fertilizers this is a costly ion. This ion is even more significant in view of the fact that nf the number of soil samples received for analysis last year 519? were low in nitrogen, 53?; low in phosphorous and 73','6 low in potash.

The majority of the 4-H Clubs in the Province had exhibits and were represented by a good- ly- number of their members. The program got under way the previous evening at Prince of Wales College Auditorium, when the Public Speaking Finals and the Square Dancing Competition ' were conducted. The members of the 4-H Clubs are indebted to M”: Earle Baker, Proprietor of the Hughes Drug Co.. for providing prizes for these two competitions. In the- Poultry Competition on Friday, the Baldwin's Road Poultry Club deserve special mention; as a team from this Club, Misses Anita and Marjorie Tralnor, will represent the Province at the National Club Cmtests in Toronto: another team of Emmett Mcxenna and Merlin Gormley. will be the representatives at the Maritime Winter Fair in Amherst. In addition to this, another mem- ber of this Club. Miss Mary Curran, placed first .for King's County in the Public speaking Contest, and went on to place Second in the Provincial Contest. In addition to the ac- ecmplishments of the Club mem- bars. the Club Leader. Mr. Joseph Trainer, was presented with a. five-year Leadership award, given by the Canadian Council on 4-H Club: for outstanding Leadership in Junior Olub work. The accom- plishments of this Club certainly testify to the work that their leader has been doing over the past number of years. 0 I O In the Grain Competition, there was ll. display from the Grain Club at St. George's, and Miss Aline Keefe and George MacDonald will represent this Club in the Crops Oompetltlon at the Maritime Winter Fair. In the Llvestodk Contest, the I-Ioistelna again stole the show. with fourteen groups competing. and ths'group from the Milicove Club again topped the H ” clais. The Grand Champion Hol- stein was shown by Miss Ruth Dixon, a member of the Bay ll'or- tune Holstein club which is a new Club this year. The Reserve Champion in Holstelins was shown by Janet Jones of the Jolly Farm- ers club at Alexandra. In the Ayrshire class, with six Clubs competing, two first-year Clubs stood first and second. Lower Montague placed first, and John MacDonald. a member of this Club. had the Ohampion Ayrshire call. The Brookifleld Club placed-second. and Emerson MacR.ae, a member Champion. 0 In the Jersey and Guernsey ex- hibit. a group of Guernsey calves were exhibited for the first time in recent years. and they repre- seemed the Norboro diub. In this section, Linda Btetson of the Bede- que club showed the champion calf. and mgene Donahue of the North Wiltshire Club, the Reserve Champion. In the Beef Section, there were six groups. shown, and the champ- ion calf was a steer shown by Douglas Jewell of the North River Club. In 1052. Douglas showed the Reserve champion in the Beef Section. The e Champion this year was-shown by Joseph Ferguson, of the Hampton Club. and it is interesting to note that Beulah Ferguson, I sister of Jos- showed the champion calf 1052. The sports pllngfndh in the after- noon was participated-in by a great many of the young people who were in attendance. and the Banner which is presented by the Department for the most points won by any Club. was captured again this year by the members of the Malpeque I-H Oalf Club. 0 3 NH HM! ii". tiiw- Int KINII EDIE LFIIA of this Club. showed the Reserves COLEMAN FLOOII.

Blabsmah Sclseinfeld Frank "DISCIPLINE: MEANS AND ENDS" This week and next, I shall deal with a fine chapter, "Discipline: Means and Enda," by Mary Fisher Langmuir, Professor of Child Study, Vassar College. This is only one in A series of constructive chapters. contributed by leading authorities, to the book. "Our Chil- dren Today." edited by Sidcnle Gruenburg, and published by the Macmillan Company of Canada, Limited, January 1052. In almost every discussion con- cerning chlldren, the question of discipline is sure to come up. But it is usually I specific problem that worries the parents. "I-low can I stop Jimmie from sucking his thumb?" Or, ”How can I teach my teenager to come home on time?" But discipline, Professer Lang- muir points out, involves two ques- tions that must be kept continual- ly in mind. ”What am I trying to teach my child?" is the first. And, "What does he seem to be learn- ing?” is the second. . . . Teaching the child "to eat. prop- erly," for example, is certainly 9. reasonable goal and seems to justi- fy scoldlng the child when he spills his food. But is he learning to eat properly, if the scolding makes him cry and he is too upset to finish his supper? Instead of learning good table manners, he may be learning to think with distaste of his food, and mealtimes with the family. He may.even be learning that his mother is a rather un- pleasant person. ”It is only by being aware of the total learning." says the author," that we can judge whether our methods of discipline are helping or hurting, strengthening or weak- cning, the child's personality." Take the problem of safety - a headache to so many parents. How can Mary or Johnny be taught to keep out: of the street or road: He, tor she), can be spanked; sent to his room; his tricycle can be taken away; he can be shown pictures of cripples; and he can even be kept on a leash. Finally. he learns to keep out of the road. But, says the author, if he also learns as part of the same lessons. to be so afraid of getting hurt that he cannot let his mother out of his sight. or dreams of getting run over. or feels gen- erally thst life is pretty frighten- ing, and he'd better not try any- thing new on his own, well then. it is clear that he has learned more and different things from those in- tended. eee strict obedience can be taught, but often at too great a price. A father may get instant obedience from his children, but warmth and understanding can vanish from the home. Later, when the children have special need of a father's- sup- port, fssr has replaced confidence. The father himself may realize this too late. - ' Teachers too, the author indi- cates. often teach more than they intend. She cites the case of s first grade teacher who wished to im- press the lesson of promptnoss. She made all children who were late. sit facing the class for an hour, with- out taking part in the activities. some of the children, the most sensitive who would have tried their hardest to please the teach- er anyway, became so anxious that they could not eat their breakfast, did not sleep Well,, and even worse. learned along with the lesson of promptness. that school "is not a friendly, interesting place, where it is fun to learn.'' 0 0 And finally, says the author, not only do children often learn the wrong things. but "sometimes our discipline seems to fail altogether." She quotes a mother who wrote, "No dren keep right on fighting, They don't seem to care whether we spank them, send them to bed. or take away their allowances." The trouble here, says our thority, is that, "expecting too much too soon, is probably the common- eat mistake we make as parents. This interferes with learning, and may even prevent it. -If our goals are unrealistic, if we really expect children can grow up with no quar- relling, then we cannot sensibly teach and our children cannot pos- sibly learn.
