Heavy Demaad from Farmers
(By Telegraph-
1 DUNEDIN, Last Night. Owing to the heavy demand, the supplies of entero-toxaemia vaccine for the vaccination of ewes against "pulpy kidney" have now become exhausted and no further supplies can be obtained from the veterinary laboratory at Wallaceville this season. An offieer of .the Department of Agriculture stated to-day that up to the present .time 50,000 doses of enterotoxaemia vaceine, all of which had been obtained from Wallaceville, had been used in the South Island. A busy time had been spent by the Live Stock Division officers in Olago and Southland, he said, in explaining and demonstrating the use of the "vaccine. Reduced mortality from "pulpy kidney" in lambs could be expected if the encouraging experimental results were maintained this season after the more extensive use of commercial vaccine under practical field conditions.
