Australian
sheep imports
okay
WASHINGTON, D.C. -
Sheep imports from
Australia, halted in 1977
after a new strain of
Bluetongue disease was
recognized there, may now
be resumed, the U.S.
Department of Agriculture
reports.
Agreement between the
two countries on stricter
import requirements made
the move possible.
Bluetongue, spread
primarily by gnats, is a
serious virus disease of
sheep that can also affect
cattle.
Tbe new import health
requirements also take into
account other insect-borne
viruses recently recognized
in Australia. Sheep
qualifying for export will be
permitted to be flown to the
Department’s import
facility at Honolulu for a 30-
day quarantine. Some 200
sheep can be processed at
the Honolulu station during
each quarantine.

Look Into The Advantages Of A Swine "Castle”
AESiy^R
To see why our factory-built Sow, Pig, or Hog CASTLES can work so
much better for you than other types take a look inside
Here are just some of the features that add up to more comfortable
- sows and more pigs saved in our Sow CASTLE models fast growth
and economical gams in our Pig CASTLE (nursery) and Hog CASTLE
(finishing) models*'Great ventilation and heating. Superior ventilation
means all animals get fresh, temperature-controlled air constantly
Fan-forced heating, and adjustable draft-free fresh air inlets at the roof
peak keep animals confortable and thrifty in any weather
A building that's easier to manage. Features like rigid white fiberglas;
walls, slotted metal flooring, waterproof electrical fixtures these
make it fast and easy to pressure-spray and sanitize the entire
building So it stands to reason that if sanitation is easier, there'll be
less disease, less stress on swine (and you), less feed used per pound
of gam, and more profit on every animal
Best of all it's factory built. This means it's virtually an “instant”
building When it’s delivered to you it's complete with all equipment,
plumbing, electrical fixtures You don’t need to mess with contractors
or workmen
Obviously, we can’t give you in one ad the whole p oui
vine CASTLES are right for you. But if you’ll use the o<\ cn, or call
i, we’ll send you our factual, illustrated literature tha' 2a it far
itter No obligation, of course
