for deaths of pigs cows considerable amount of com has been reported to be moulding in the fields in hal ton county this year during the last three weeks there were several reports of digestive dis turbances and deaths in live stock which have had access to mouldy corn in other parts of province the reported effects vary from vomiting and refusal to eat new corn by pigs to sick cows with death occurring i n some within a few hours of having access to mouldy feed there are thousands of diff erent moulds fungi present in nature the spores of many of these may be present on grains and feeds under cer tain conditions including fav durable temperatures and mol sture these spores may grow and produce the moulds we often see on damp feedstuffs a majority of known moulds have had no effects on farm animals but some are quite toxic information available indi cates that young swine and re producing swine are most sus ceptible to mould toxicity whereas mature ruminants may be less severely affected there is no easy method of de terrain ing the toxicity of mould strains of ertain moulds may be toxic whreas others may not if mould toxicity is encoun tered there appears to be little if any treatment other than to stop feeding the mouldy mat enals once the toxic substance has developed there is no econom ical way to remove it from large quantities of grain tox ins from the moulds a p o a a r very stable and are not casi y destroyed by heat or removed hy washing mould toxicity may be acue or chronic in the acute form digestive disturbances stag genng and death may occur within a few hours to a few days in the chronic form the only symptoms observed may be decreased milk production decreased rate of growth be tween these two extremes degree of sickness may occur if corn is suspected of con tabling mould toxins it may be fed to a few of the poorer an imals in the herd for several weeks the animals should be observed closely for any signs of refusal to eat coordination
