PREVENTING NAVEL AND JOINT DISEASE 
I SHOULD like to see an article on the 
care of the newly-born colt’s navel. 
Should it be tied? Should it be dis¬ 
infected? s. c. 
Morris, N. Y. 
The disease is due to filth germs enter¬ 
ing the system by way of the raw navel 
stump at birth. The germs are found 
upon dirty floors, and in contaminated 
bedding. They may form in a decom¬ 
posing clot of blood caused by tying the 
navel. The germs cause an abscess at 
the navel, and from it pus germs are car¬ 
ried into the system and cause secondary 
abscess, notably in the joints of the ex¬ 
tremities, but also in the live£-~A* other 
parts of the body in some cases. The 
disease may be prevented by cleanliness 
and disinfection. Have the mare foal in 
a roomy box stall that has been cleaned, 
disinfected with a 1-1000 solution of 
bichloride of mercury and then white¬ 
washed with fresli-made lime wash. This 
should be freely applied to walls, floor 
aird ceiling. Then put in fresh clean 
bedding. When the foal is dropped free 
its mouth and nose of membranes and 
at once attend to the navel. The navel 
cord (umbilicus) should only be tied 
(ligated) when absolutely necessary. It 
is much better to have the cord break 
off naturally. If the mare is ly' ig down 
make her rise and the cord then may 
break. If it docs not break it should be 
severed by means of an ecraseur or em- 
asculator or scraped through with a 
clean, disinfected knife, after ligating, 
an inch or so from the body and then 
two or three inches lower, with clean 
strings soaked in a five per cent, solution 
of carbolic acid. Just as soon as possi¬ 
ble afterward, the string on the stump 
of the navel should be loosened (a bow- 
knot having been tied when it was put 
on) and if it is seen that bleeding will 
not occur the string should be removed. 
The stump of the navel should be thor¬ 
oughly saturated with tincture of iodine 
at birth, whether a string is used or not, 
and then should be frequently dusted 
with a mixture of equal parts of finely 
powdered alum, boric acid and starch 
powder until well crusted over. Iodine 
should be freely applied again if it is 
seen that the stump of the navel is wet. 
Another good treatment is to saturate the 
navel at birth with a 1-500 solution of 
corrosive sublimate and then use the solu¬ 
tion twice a day until the navel shrinks 
up, drops off and no raw spot can be 
seen. Where the disease has been preva¬ 
lent a graduate veterinarian should be 
employed to give the foal a protective 
hypodermic dose of antistreptococcic 
serum at birth. The serum also should 
be used should infection occur. 
In addition to caring for the uavel at 
birth it is highly important to see that the 
bowels move promptly and fully soon after 
birth. The first manure (meconium) is 
a sticky substance which tends to adhere 
to the lining of the intestinal tract un¬ 
less brought away by the action of the 
first milk (colostrum) which contains a 
purgative principle. To assist nature 
give the foal rectal injection of a few 
ounces of warm water aud a tea¬ 
spoonful of glycerine, or inject warm 
sweet oil or slippery elm bark tea, 
or molasses, cream and warm water. 
Do not inject large quantities of 
strong soapy warm water. If the bowels 
do not respond promptly give the foal 
two or three tablespoonfuls of best cas¬ 
tor oil shaken up in milk. Before the 
foal is allowed to suck for the first time 
wash the mare’s udder with a two per 
cent solution of coal tar disinfectant or 
carbolic and then rinse off well with 
warm water. Afterward keep the udder 
clean. Burn or bury all soiled bedding 
and the afterbirth, and put in new clean 
bedding as soon as the foal has been 
attended to and the mare has “cleaned.” 
Few losses will occur if these simple in¬ 
structions are carefully followed.

The Wisconsin Farmer notes that fewer 
and fewer of the Wisconsin farmers are con¬ 
tent to milk and care for cows that are able 
to produce only about 150 pounds of butter. 
During two weeks last Spring 145 Wisconsin 
dairymen purchased registered purebred Hol¬ 
stein sires in order to improve their herds. 
Everywhere the more progressive dairymen 
are alive to the necessity of using bred-for- 
production sires in order to bring up the 
butter-fat yield of their cows to a profitable

Bulls of Island Blood 
Thirty-eight Island-bred Jerseys have been care¬ 
fully selected for use at Meridale Farms. Every 
one of them is backed by prize-winning and butter- 
tested ancestry: and through authenticated test 
work, year after year, they are building a solid 
reputation in America. 
Several bull calves of this breeding are for sale. 
] Among them is a son of The Owl's Oxford Prince 
95699 out of Raleigh’s Pretty Karnak 252135, dropped 
December 27. 1913. and a most attractive individual. 
His breeding combines the pedigrees of onr two 
leading Island bulls, for his dam is full sister to 
The Imported Jap 75266, sire of 15 tested cows. 
The story of our Island Family is told in ’’Meridale
