It is very possible to confuse this condition with Vitamin A deficiency in turkeys: Vitamin A deficiency causes swelling of the sinuses and gives a similar picture as Infectious Sinusitis Aleclianical injury may produce similar swellings but such conditions would not involve as many birds and usually only one sinus is swollen How is this disease treated? in the turkey husiness will not soon forget the days when a 4 per cent solution of silVer nitrate was used te combat this disease The cloudy fluid was aspirated out of the swollen sinuses and the silver nitrate solution injected The results were only fair at best c) op ' 1 4'8 ' i ' r4404' K STOPPED other prices ° ' vv shotsvn tw always amaied at the In auction sales at thew Idaho Falls yards The tiO 4 0 precision-likoperation of the yants the buyer — the A and producjr lotetest and effect of the market at letaho Falls ins convinc- ''s!ww i 4ii ing evidence of Wicked rnenapernent :eit erew A few figures will gist you an idea about the growth of the Idaho Live stock Auction Mr Farn'snorth Company in thepast few yea's In 1930 there were 1000t cattle sold through the ring In 11)53 there were 118000 cattle sold through the same ring Ileg sales jumped from 2300 in inm to 11850 in 1953 In 1936 just 1014 sheep were auctioned- nod in 1953 some 195406 sheep we knocked down to whigh bidders Of course the Idaho Falls Livestock Auction Yards handles more animals than those that are sold through the auction ring For instance a total ot api roximately 300000 sheep and 60000 hogs were handled It is always a rleosuic le drop in on the busy 414 at the Idaho Falls Yards irest I am fi'el"'' °4 5 V - - - ' - - and the Intel mountain area lost a valuable suppot ter nil 1 he passing of Drue Dunn As'county in Idaho hutote coming to Utah he worked kith of several counties and gave valuable assistance to farmers of the state Aside hom having technical training and judgement that Drue seemed to have the vanilla know-hoinspired confidence and hiought results It was while he was in Idaho that met him ten years ago Since cooling to Utah to affiliate with the Utah Chain Stores Assn Drue as member of the executive comenielee of the Intermountain Junior 'Fat Stock show Working v it h him there and associating yvillt him ea het performed hisdodies in the area as agricultural counsel for his firm Ne learned to appreciate him more cacti ytar Ile will long be remembeeed by his many friends in the Intermountain area Am looking folvvard to the beginning of our livestock show season Idaho Falls stages it's show beginning tomorrow and the first major show in Utah the Utah State Junior will be 'held at Strainish Fork next week from then on until the first week of June well the enjoying a lot of good showy nod visiting with good friends in many parts of the area UrAll ' 1 IS May 2 1954 - 8111 1 1 |
