Precautions Urged Now to Safeguard [Spring Lambing ! Sheep raisers were advised to day that extra precautions taken I now against pregnancy disease will pay big dividends at spring 'lambing time. The American Foundation for Animal Health i urged that bred ewes receive good | rations and exercise during the ; winter. Neglect on that score now could mean loss of ewes and } lambs in the spring, the Founda . tion said. "Pregnancy disease is a toxic condition resulting from the extra demands on the ewe's system dur ing gestation," says the Founda tion's report. "It usually results from faulty diet or lack of exer cise. which allows waste products [ to build up in the body. Ewes car j vying twins or triplets are espe cially susceptible. "First sign of pregnancy disease ; usually is noted a few days before I lambing, when some ewes start lagging behind the flock as it is driven. Affected ewes often grind their teeth, appear dull and weak, and tremble when exercised, and go down." Tlie Foundation emphasized that prevention is the best way to avoid pregnancy disease losses. Although veterinarians can save ewes in some cases, pregnancy disease has a high mortality rate, and the lambs usually are lost, too. Sugar solutions injected into the bloodstream are most com monly used to treat the stricken ewes. HUGUENOT SPRINGS Mrs. Eloise H. Edmunds has re turned home after spending a week with her niece. Mrs. Francis Greene, of “Hunting Lodge. " Warrington, Va. Minor Tompkins, of Richmond, spent last Saturday hunting with friends in the neighborhood.
