Dr, David Ingraham, chief
of the Bureau of Animal
Industries in Harrisburg,
says that Secretary of
Agriculture Kent Shelhamer
is very much concerned
about the situation and is
“very anxious to assist in the
program.” The Bureau of
Animal Industries is coor
dinating the development of
identification and eventually
eradication programs,
Ingraham says.
In the letters sent to
livestock markets earlier
this month, Ingraham said: *
“As you know, a significant
number of market swine are
showing lesions of swine
tuberculosis ... the only way
the Bureau of Animal In
dustries can identify
producers is to have each lot
of market swine identified
by slap tattoos when they
arrive at your markets.”
The BAI is hopeful of
cooperation in the iden
tification program,
emphasizing that control of
the situation hinges on that
fact. ,
Meanwhile, all hog
producers are urged to
consider the following
precautionary measures:
What can you do to protect
your herd? Don’t allow
poultry of any kind to come
in contact with hogs. Keep
poultry penned. Don’t feed
dead poultry, poultry en
trails, or poultry litter to
hogs. Incinerate dead birds
or bury them at least 18
inches deep. Don’t use
poultry buildings or
equipment for swine unless
such facilities have been
properly cleaned and
disinfected. Don’t spread
poultry litter on fields that
are to be used as pasture for
hogs or other animals.
Do routinely disinfect
swine houses, feeding floors,
and similar areas with ef
fective disinfectants. Do
protect swine waterers,
feed, and feeders from
contamination by poultry
and wild birds. Do keep wild
birds away from swine.
Tuberculosis has been
found in crows, starlings,
blue jays, pheasants, ducks,
and other wild birds.
Should your hogs become
infected with tuberculosis,
you can help further by
cooperating with state or
federal veterinarians who
visit your farm. They are
well qualified to advise you
about the disease and
methods for eradicating it.
Although cattle have been
known to get TB from hogs,
it is not a big concern.
