COWS AFTER CALVING.

After calving many cows fail to " cleanse " properly and the contagious disease microbes contained in the dust and dirt always blowing about settle on and find an ideal breeding place in the beast. Once lodged tne even-blood temperature of a cow soon develops these germs and infectious diseases make their appearance. Unless prompt measures are taken to obviate this trouble there is a big danger of the whole herd becoming infected. As a matter of fact it is reaPy astonishing how quickly this can happen unless proper precautions are taken at once and the old adage "Prevention is better than cure " is an excellent one to follow immediately after a cow has calved,

If you have not already a supply of "Ho Vita " Cleansing Drenches, procure some from either Messrs H. Dell and Son (Pukekohe). Messrs P. Henry & Son, Patumahoe, or Mr H. King (Waiuku), and administer it as directed on the packet. Nothing equals " Bo Vita "as a Drench for cows after calving, because it cleanses thoroughly and quickly in a perfectly natural manner and also purifies the blood and acts as a safeguard against milk fever. It is not only a purgative, but also acts as a tonic and tones up the digestive organs and revives the whole vitality of the cow. No other preparation is nearly so successful out it is necessary to remember that "Bo Vita" Drencb is to be used after calving. "Bo Vita " is also an excellent Drench for horses, sheep and pigs and full directions for these animals is on every packet, in addition to which there are complete, clear instructions for the correct method of drenching a cow.
