If I get a hair-dryer By FRANK CAREY Associated Press Sciinee Reporter ALBURN, Ala. - I'orlahle calf pens -providing ( lean, individual outdoor room service and a change of scenery every week- have been developed here as a means of com batting high mortality among the nation's future milk-producers. ScicntL-ts of the V. S. Depart ment of Agriculture :.ai the mov able pens- -which allow the ani- mals'to be moved to "clean" wound periodically have pn v nted most of the sickness which bedevils calves in the important first lew months of life. I p to now, they say, one in every five heifer calves born in the I nited States dies in baby hood due to diarrhetle condi tions, pneumonia, stomach and intestinal worms, and a parasitic disease called "eoccidiosis" which involves the intestinal wall. This high death rule, they say, has been due to the fact that in many cases, calves have been turned loose in large pens with other calves and adult animals and have been exposed to con tamination by diseas'c-laden waste body products. Kien when calves are isolated in individual, stationary pens in a barn, they said, the still is dan ger, because the most thorough cleaning of the pens often fails to i id the pens of some disease agents. Hie portable pens were devel oped at the Dept. of Agriculture's regional animal disease laboratory on the grounds of the Alabama Polytechnic Institute, and directed by Dr. A. H, Grolh. The pens are wire-sided affairs. measuring five by 10 feet. They have an aluminum cover over one end to protect the calf from rain and sun.

The pens are snaced 13 feet apart so the calves can't get too chummy. They remain thus lor a week, when the pens are moved eight feet to the right or left, to a new ground location. Thereafter, the pens are moved gradually up the hillside at weekly intervals. Mean while, the scientists sav. rain helps wash any accumulated germs down the hillside, away from the animals. They explained that immediate ly after birth, the calf can pick up a few disease-causing agents from its mother's milk or from contact with the udder. Thus, they say, if a calf re mained in one spot, it would be subject to further contamination from such organisms through contact with its own waste body products. The idea of "moving" at weekly intervals is to desert one spot before the disease or ganisms present in waste pro ducts have had an opportunity to develop to dangerous propor tions. Covered feeders in the pens pro vide the animals with food, and water is placed in buckets bung in corners. In the station's own experience, I he incidence of calf diseases has been kept extremely low. The sci entists had confirmative reports of I he efficiency of the pens from the Florida Slate Mental Hospital's farm, where mortality among heif er calves was cut from almost 100 per cent to about one per cent fol lowing introduction of the portable pen system. Working with Dr. Groth on the Auburn research are Doctors L. R. Davis and Dale A. Porter. The port able pens were Davis' idea based on a tip he got from his mother during his boyhood in Georgia. "Mother used to keep baby chicks in a portable wire enclos ure which she'd move from time to time, to 'give the chicks a change of grass' as she put it," Davis said. "It turned out that these chicks were healthier than some that remained in one spot. Mother didn't know anything about coccidiosis, which affects poultry as well as calves, but apparently her portable system was preventing that disease among her chicks. So Fast! So Easy!
