Mysterious Disease Among N.S.W. Dairy Cows
ASSUMING ALARMING PROPORTIONS United Press Association—Bv Electric Telegraph.— Copy right. Received Thursday, 11 p.m. SYDNEY, Feb. 4. A mysterious disease among herds on the north coast of New South Wales, called “three day sickness,” is assuming alarming proportions. The stock inspector at Grafton reports that the cattle are “riddled” with it but the mortality is low. A report from Casino states that cows go dry for over a week, thus thousands of gallons of milk are lost. The Government’s officers describe the ailment as ephemeral fever and advise providing plenty of shade and water for the animals affected.
