Stress Factors In Pig Raising, P C. Beck
Stress Factors In Pig Raising, P C. Beck
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THE pig raiser who wishes to attain the best possible growth performance from his pigs must recognise factors other than the basic ones of good nutrition and bredin capacity.
These are "stress factors"—minor factors of husbandry which can greatly damage health and limit the growth rate.

WHITE OR YELLOW PHOSPHORUS was at one time widely used in poison baits for crows, rats, foxes and rabbits.
Although it has now been largely replaced, it is still an important cause of accidental death by poisoning.
A Modified Copper Hot Water System, F J. Fielder
A Modified Copper Hot Water System, F J. Fielder
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
A good supply of hot and boiling water for cleansing and sterilising utensils is essential for hygienic milk production.
Dairy Instructor F. Fielder, M.D.D., describes an efficient and economical modification of a copper hot water system for this purpose.
SINGLE copper units of 14 or 16 gallon capacity to supply hot and boiling water for the dairy are no longer good enough for most dairy farms.

Lambs Need Drenching At Weaning, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
RECENT losses among young lambs due to heavy infestations of black scour worm (Trichostrongylus species) have indicated that this year the problem of worms in weaners may be more troublesome than usual.

Management Of Laying Flock, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
EGG production usually declines in birds which have been under lights during autumn and winter. Egg prices are lower and flocks should therefore be culled more severely.

THE spring period is one of completion and preparation for poultry farmers.
Mycotic Dermatitis (Lumpy Wool) And Fleece Rot Of Sheep, J Shilkin
Mycotic Dermatitis (Lumpy Wool) And Fleece Rot Of Sheep, J Shilkin
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Matted and sometimes discoloured specimens of wool are often received at the Department of Agriculture during seasons of heavy rainfall.
Two similar but quite distinct diseases are recognised as having caused this condition.
They are mycotic dermatitis (lumpy wool) and fleece rot. Both conditions damage the fleece and render affected sheep susceptible to blowfly strike.

Nebraska Beef Cattle Reports
Feeding pastured calves protein supplements weekly instead of daily during the winter made little difference in either winter or summer gains, according to research results to date.
Two sources of protein were used in the trial. (I) Second cutting alfalfa hay was fed at the rate of four pounds per head daily. One group of calves was fed four pounds per head daily and one group was fed 28 pounds per head once each week. (2) Forty percent protein, pellets or cake, was fed at the rate of one pound per head daily. One group was fed one pound per …
Chronic Respiratory Disease Of Poultry In Western Australia, M R. Gardiner, R. V. Vagg
Chronic Respiratory Disease Of Poultry In Western Australia, M R. Gardiner, R. V. Vagg
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Widespread chronic respiratory disease was revealed in a survey of respiratory infections in Perth metropolitan area poultry flocks.
Most occur in early or midsummer and cause a serious fall in egg production. Return to full lay after the infection is usually slow.
While these infections can cause production losses in flocks which are under heavy stress, none of the more serious forms of chronic respiratory disease was found.
This gives encouragement for future control of the disease in Western Australia.

A Survey Of The Helminth Parasites Of Pheasants From Brown County, South Dakota, Donald E. Gilbertson
A Survey Of The Helminth Parasites Of Pheasants From Brown County, South Dakota, Donald E. Gilbertson
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This paper presents a study of the helminth endoparasite of the Chinese or ring-necked pheasant (Phasianus colchicus). The digestive and respiratory tracts of 262 pheasants, all of which were collected in Brown County, South Dakota, were examined. Collections were ,made from January, 1961, through November of the same year. The problem was divided as follows: (1) locating and Identifying the helminth parasites, (2) relating parasitism to the age of the birds, (3) ascertaining the seasonal distribution of the parasites, and (4) determining what gross pathological changes were due to parasitism. Previous to this study, little or no literature was available …
