Farmers Are Urged to,
Save This Year’s Pigs,
( Calves and Lambs
I
Heavy demand for meat and dairy
prrodudU in 1961 gives farmers extra
reason for saving this year’s spring
frigs, calves and lambs, the*American
for Animal Health re
ports.
To help fanners save* more of this
year’s young animal crop, Foundation
authorities offered these suggestions:
“Feed the mother animals a balanc
ed ration, providing animal proteins,
vitamins and minerals, including le
gtime hay.
“Keqp brood saws, cqws and ewes
comfortable and clean, free from mites,
lice and filth.
“Have Ithe new animals bom on
'clean pasture —or in clean, dry well
bedded quarters, free from chilly
drafts.
“Toward the end of the gestation
period, be alert to assist at birth if
necessary. 'Disinfect the navels of the
young.
“Be sure netwlborn animals are nurs
ing properly. Calves need colostrum
(first milk after calving-. Have clean
sod accessible to pigs tip to three
weeks old.
“Watch for scouring; it may be a
\ sign of improper feeding, over-feed
r mg, or a disease.
“Around weaning time, have pigs
vaccinated against hog colera. Con
sult a veterinarian on the need for
vaccination of other stock in light of.
f local disease conditions.
“At the first sign of ailing health
k ’in breeding stock or yoting animals,
* obtain a diagnosis. Find out whether
disease, parasites or faulty nutrition
is responsible. Corrective action,
started promptly, may save the lives
of many young animals.”

One evening Innes MdOall got to
wondering about the whoppers that
must have been hauled from North
American takes and streams in the last
century. What were the biggest fresh
water fish that had ever been caught,
regardless of the method and their
game status?
So he wrote hundreds of letters.
What he found is astonishing. There
are no less than eight species that
have Seen taken in weights exceed
ing 100 pounds! Here are a few of
the records he uncovered:
That 67-pound 11 ounce musky isn’t
the biggest ever. Back in 1902 two
Wisconsin fishery biologists disen
tangled a dangerously large musky
from their net, managed to weigh the
creature and removed its spawn and
returned the fish to water. It was a
102-pound female that was never tak
en again.
The year 1938 produced two record
fish. One came to light by the undig
nified process of being in Lake Law.

—a 110-pound catfish. The other was
a 126%-(pound Chinook salmon caught
in a fish trap near Petersburg, Alas
ka.
As to the largest fish caught in
fresh water—that was the Oregon, or
Pacific or white sturgeon which
spawns far inland in the western

'Most of the laige ones were caught
some 40 years ago, so records are
sketchy. (Many were taken on heavy
setlines, dragged from the river by
a team of horses more accustomed to
plowing than fishing.
A different method was used by
Nephi Purcell, who in 19111 landed
the heaviest Oregon sturgeon off which

from the Snake River in Idaho. Pur

inches long, baited with lampreys. The
setline, a 7/16-inch rope, was double

stakes, with slack between. A gunny
sack, weighted with rocks and tied to
the line with twine, served as a sink
