PREVENT ABORTION

THE SAVOL WAY. Of great importance to all dairy farmers is the display off Savol, the scientific preparation, specially manufactored lo combat llio ravages of abortion throughout the herds. Leading veterinarians and scientists have unanimously agreed that the only successful means of preventing and curing t.liis mischievous disease is by irrigation of the reproductive organs with a specially prepared blood-absorbent solution which, while antiseptic, will sterilise but not burn or injure in any way tlie delicate mucus -lining of the passages, removing obstructions and organisms in its process, at the same l-’acls must ho faced, and while time soothing in its effect.

farmers as a rule arc loth to admit it is in their herds, tliey prefer lo attribute eases of “slipped calves,” etc., to other causes than abortion. Compilation of reliable information reveals that one cow in every six in New Zealand fails to come in. Government figures showing a loss of 200,0U0 cows annually to the dairying industry. Savol may justly be claimed as the salvation of ’the herds, testimony of its efficacy coming from all parts of the Dominion, i.if Ihe 7000 to ,8000 drums sol<] last year not I per rent, of the purchasers had any reason to complain, the only isolated cases being those of a few who had not applied savol at the right tone. Abortion can be successfully prevented and controlled by its use 2 V hours after calving, when it goes right to tlie blood. All dairy farmers arc cordially invited to inspect this stall, where they may avail Iheriiselves of useful information in llie 1026 Veterinary Handbook, which can he obtained gratis. 01
