stricken cows to safety thru
an attack of this common but
dangerous disease.
Of course, uncomplicated
cases of milk fever usually
respond quite readily to cal
cium and dextrose therapy.
But until the treatment can
be administered, if a cow
with milk fever is lying flat
on her side, she should be
propped up with bales of
straw or hay into a sitting
position This will help pre-
vent mgesta from the rumen

cause inhalation pneumonia.

Veteran farmers know
that the disease usually
strikes within the first week
after calving, and they’re es
pecially watchful during that
time. As the fever progress
es the cow usually lies down
in a stupor. Then is the time
to place that “safety first”
call to your veterinarian.
GIVE EM SHADE
Animals enjoy getting out
of the hot sun, too, says Tom
King, extension livestock
specialist. That’s why he
suggests artificial shade if no
natural shade is evailable in
the pastures. It’s simple: set
four poles in the ground, use
a framework of light poles
for the roof, and cover with
straw or com stover held in
place by woven wire.
