Mastitis now drains $250 million a year out of the pockets of cattle owners—a staggering sum! A three-part program, which recognizes the complicated nature of mastitis could do a lot toward reducing these losses. The program consists of (1) prevention, (2) diagnosis, (3) treatment. The preventive phase of the program should include a review of housing, milking equipment, sanitation and milking practices at regular intervals. The inspection should be made by a team including a qualified milking machine service man and a veterinarian. IB: (B, ft Mastitis now costs herd owners $250 million a year. The diagnosis part of the program is the “watch dog” which provides methods for detecting mastitis early. The plan might include a screening test of all cows in the milking line once a month. Cows showing trouble should be segregated. A veterinarian can conduct diagnostic tests which will spot the exact organism and enable him to set up proper treatment. In the treatment phase of the program it is well to recognize that there is no easy “sure shot” remedy for mastitis. Since there are so many organisms which can cause the disease, successful treatment depends on properly determining the treatment for the organism responsible. This is the reason it is wise to leave the decision on how to treat mastitis to a veterinarian. He knows tho organism*. He knows what to do. Success in controlling mastitis depends on a vigorous and continuous program, but diligence will pay off in a reduction of the heavy losses this problem now anises.
