Wm. E. Pelham. Milk Fever. Mr. John Scott, who is consider bly interested in live stock and the >reeding of fine cattle in this county, :alled our att-ntionto the following xrticle concerning the treatment of nilk fever, which appeared in a re :ent issue of the Jersey Bulletin. This disease has been carefully tudied by the bureau of Animal In lustry at Washington, along proper )athological lines. Milk fever the )ureau terms "parturient paresis." Che past history of the disease, its ;ymptoms, remedies, new air treat nent, and prevention, are all given in heir circular No. 45, which was re >rinted in our last issue. Previously, there had never been my exhaustive treatise on milk ever, for the reason that veterinar, ans have not had the breeders' ex )erience. and the latter are the ones vho have a thorough knowledge of he treatment of the cows prior to :alving-which, it appears, has been n the past a very important factor n the prevention of the disease. Various remedies have been pre cribed and used, and by discussion n the diary papers in this country nd beyond the seas an advance in reatment has been made. Breed rs have carried one another along. tep by step. with a good measure of uccess: but the essential or funda rental principles have' not had the crious consideration they should iave had along pathological lines he blind have been leading the blind. Some breeders claim to have been uccessful in averting the disease by -estraining the condition of the cow >efore calving. Professors of dairy nig, in this country and abroad. have upported that practice, thinking that he plethoric condition of the cow vas a predisposing cause of the dis ase. This theory was succeeded by he Schmidt treatment, which in turn .-as improved upon by a man who >umped air into the utlders of two ows down with the malady and chich safely passed out of the ordeal. With the advent of distension of he udder came other practices in -nnection with it. There was a 'ager madc a short time ago by a aan living in Surbiton, England, that e could cure any case of milk fever mt it was never accepted. He gave tis plan: "that a cow should not be nilked for 48 hours after calving;" n case of a dead calf he would modify ts treatment. That was his whole ecret. The statement was made hat thec strain on the system in re >enishing the supply of milk drawn rm the cow was the sole cause of ilk fever, together with a neglect d state of the bowels, which he aarded against by the use of "one r two pints of linseed oil a day or o before calving and again twelve ours after calving. "Jimmy was never known to smile, ~ut he had a laugh, the loudest, most enetrating, and mirthless that mor al ever listened to. When I remind d him one day that I had discharged im the day before he laughed, and begged him to desist. Advertised Letters. ~emaining in post office for week nding October 22, 1904.
