Jones, local veterinary, veteri-nary, is veing recognized all over the State of Utah as having made a real contribution to the poultry industry.' Bronchitis, the deadly malady which poultrymen have to contend with, will perhaps be a thing of the past within a very short period. Dr. Jones has untiringly carried on his research work to eliminate this disease, which has recently resulted in the discovery of a proper method of application of a bronchitis vaccine vac-cine which is manufactured by the Vineland Laboratories, who are the only manufacturers of bronchitis vaccine for poultry in the world. This vaccine was discovered by Drs. Budett and Hudelson of the New Jersey Experiment Station and they supervise its production. This vaccine was used in this vicinity vi-cinity for more than a year with very unsatisfactory results due to the fact that the vaccine is a live virus and will produce the disease if not properly administered. Dr. Jones, thru careful study and experimentation for many months, discovered a method of application of this vaccine which is now giving 100 per cent results. Dr. Jones has vaccinated more than 300,000 fowls in Utah and at the present time is supervising the vaccination of thousands thous-ands of birds in Salt Lake County. The Vineland Laboratories have engaged the services of Dr. Jones who left at once for Washington, Oregon and California to teach the poultrymen of these states the proper prop-er use of this vaccine. He left for this trip Monday, May 14th, in company com-pany with A. R. Mickelson, manager of the Draper Valley Poultry Association. Asso-ciation. They will make a study of the many problems pertaining to the poultry while on this trip. The Poultry producers of Utah County are now enjoying the benefits bene-fits of this splendid contribution and as time goes on it will be hard to estimate the added profits that will be realized to every poultry raiser in our locality. As a community we depend more or less upon the poultry products for our livelihood and owe much to one who contributes as has our local veterinarian in perfecting this method. |
