LITERARY i THE HOOF AND MOUTH DISEASE The first case of hoof and mouth disease was reported as far back as November 1951. However, most of the public was not yet aware of thbs fact. A veterinarian in the Weyburn region of Saskatchewan suspected that certain animals had the dread virus known as hoof and mouth disease. He sent his report to the head health inspector at Ottawa, saying that he would send samples of the suspected virus to the laboratories at Hull. However, a negative order was sent back to the veterinarian saying not to send the samples and that the infection was only a stomach disturbance which caused the cattle to break out in a rash similar to the signs of hoof and mouth disease. Luckily, however, the veterinarian had already sent the samples to the laboratories at Hull. The Vet¬ erinarian’s suspicions were confirmed when the samples were tested and found to be the much dreaded virus. Serums were rushed at once to stem the outbreak. But nevertheless a ban was at once placed oh all cattle coming from the west. Immediately the United States placed an embargo on all cattle and hogs coming from Canada. Although the veterinarians worked hard to stem the outbreak, they could do nothing for the already infected herds. Then came the grim task of making the burial pits for the condemned livestock. Men and equipment began digging long, deep trenches to bury the live¬ stock in. The cattle were driven into the trenches where they were shot. Some of these herds were very valuable and among the most prized in the west. However, the farmers were given compensation for the cattle that they had lost. Even though the outbreak has been limited to a fairly small area around Weyburn, over a thousand animals have had to be des¬ troyed. This outbreak in Saskatchewan has dealt a crushing blow to Canadian economy. Cattle cannot be brought in from British Columbia and Alberta as they would have to pass through Saskatchewan. The United States has stopped all buying of beef from Canada. As a result Df the ban, the beef in Saskatchewan is piling ip because it cannot be taken out. People are Deing laid off from their jobs in the packing plants because there is not enough meat. How¬ ever, a member of Parliament predicts that markets will be open again in the U.S.A. in the near future. Recently foot and mouth disease has gone on the rampage in Europe and other parts of the world with Britain suffering severely. In Mexico, the Mexicans have been driving their infected herds into the hills to escape elim¬ ination. This has succeeded only in the spreading of the virus. Truly this virus is a threat to livestock all over the world and must be conquered by man. G. GILLESPIE -- ROOM 12, GRADE 9 The handling of the Iboof atnd mouth disease Is an outstanding example of the need for GOOD GOVERNMENT.
