Mysterious X Disease Found In State Herds
Wide scattered herds in New Mexico are infected with the mysterious X Disease, which has killed cattle in several states. The Cattle Sanitary Board notes the disease is rising in the state, with no definite cause yet found. Animals often die as the disease runs its course. Drought pressures grazing and diet deficiencies appear to influence spread and severity, while vaccination reduces other diseases and may help. Continued investigation seeks causes and cures.
