a Page 14A - THE KINGS MOUNTAIN HERALD - Thursday, November 28, 1985 Keep A Close Watch To Reduce Cattle Close observation and routine cattle deworming are simple steps producers can take to reduce the economic losses and poor performance associated with worm in- festation, says Ted Ledford of Kings Mountain Farm Center in Kings Mountain. “Worms present problems for almost every cattle operator at one time or another, so a prevention and treatment program is critical to keeping losses at a minimum,’’ Ledford declares. ‘‘Otherwise, operators can expect pro- County Takes Over KM Ambulance Trips From Page 1-A cy Management Services earlier this month to take over ambulance service because of shortage of cer- tified manpower. Richard Byers, spokesman for the Kings Mountain Rescue Squad, said for routine ambulance calls and for wrecks which do not in- volve pin-ins, the county emergency number (4824422) should be called. He said the local rescue squad will continue to do all types of rescue work but will be a backup to the county for ambulance transports. The four paid members of the rescue squad, Roy Ham- mett, Jeff Cloninger, Barry Dellinger and Darlene Short, have resigned their positions with the squad and are employed by the County Emergency Services and based at Kings Mountain Hospital. All four expressed a hope to be able to rejoin the squad eventually but they must await a final clarifica- tion on the new federal law which prohibits emergency personnel from volunteering for services for which they are paid. The new federal law requires paying emergency personnel time and a half for overtime work. Byers said the Rescue Squad is now in the process of changing officers around to assume duties which were previously the responsibility of the four paid squad members. “We’ve been referring all calls for ambulance service to the county dispatcher since the county t over am- bulance service in Kings Mountain Friday at 5 p.m.,” Byers said.

Worms blems ranging from weight loss and anemia in their animals to carcass condem- nation at slaughter.” Cattle operators examining their herds for symptoms of worm infestation should look for a poor hair coat, emacia- tion or diarrhea, the Purina dealer explains. ‘Poor feed efficiency or actual weight loss are also indications of worms,’”’ he adds. When the producer spots any of these symptoms, a cat- tle manure sample is in order. ‘‘The veterinarian should be called to take and examine a sample for signs of worm eggs,’”’ Ledford says. If tests confirm a worm in- festation, the producer should start deworming pro- cedures, the dealer says. “Feeder cattle should be dewormed with a product such as Purina Range & Feedlot Cattle Wormer at a rate of four pounds to a thou- sand weight before or after they enter the feedlot and again in 21 days if it’s a bad infestation,”” he advises. “There’s no need to run it through a chute; the wormer can be top-dressed over feed.”’” Cattle should also be dewormed just before they're placed on pasture, and again in 21 days to prevent reinfestation, he adds. In addition, the dealer says, as standard procedure, producers should deworm cows just before calving, so the cows won’t be so readily pulled down by their calves during nursing. For spring calving, cows and calves should also be dewormed once during the summer to reduce pasture contamina- tion. For fall calving, dewor- ming should take place at weaning, or just before animals go on spring pastures, he adds. Although proper deworm- ing procedures and monitor- ing cattle for signs of infesta- tion are simple tasks, they are extremely important to" animal health and perfor- mance, the Purina supplier concludes. ‘‘Attention to these details can mean healthier cattle, fewer vet bills and more money at market time.” A a aa Gazelles, prairie dogs and many other animals never drink water.
