Worms Rob Cattlemen
Of $100,000,000
Damage from roundworms
costs U.S. cattlemen as much as
$100,000,000 per year, according
to “The Case Of The Profit Rob
ber”, a color filmstrip and ac
companying record produced by
Animal 'Health Products, Merck
Chemical Division, Rahway, N.
J.
The 15-minute film points out
that because roundworms drain
valuable nutrients from the
blood of their hosts, cattlemen
may be giving away up to 15-
pounds-per head at market time.
‘Thibenzole’. a highly effective
and convenient wormer with a
wide margin of safety, helps re
duce this loss by killing both ad
ult and many immature forms
ol worms before they lay their
eggs.
According to the film, round
worms are a constant year
’round threat even in states
where parasites were once
thought to be scarce or non-ex
irtant. Approximately 90%. of the
473 herds tested in Indiana,
lowa, Illinois, Nebraska, the Da
kotas, and Minnesota, were
found to be infected.
Never Climbed It
Pike’s Peak, the most widely
known mountain in the United
States, was never climbed by its
discoverer, Zebulon Pike, a U.S.
Army officer and explorer.
