SORE-HEAD TREATMENTS 
During this month nine head of poultry, white leghorns, were brought 
to the quarantine station suffering from the catarrhal form of sore-head. 
They were treated with the sore-head vaccine produced by this office. 
One small chicken died and one hen lost the sight of one eye. 
These birds were badly affected. All others made perfect recoveries 
and w^ere returned to their owners. 
IMPORTATION OF RAMS 
During the month 102 head of rams were received from New Zealand 
consigned to the Parker Ranch. Due to the fact that the consignee had 
failed to procure the necessary permit from the L^'nited States authorities 
for the importation of these rams, it was necessary to land them in 
quarantine until such permit could be obtained. 
The rams were held in quarantine for two weeks and then given 
a dip. On the day following the dipping one ram died. Post-mortem 
showed pneumonia as the cause. They were then held for one addi- 
tional week.
