Sanitary campaign, instructions to the farmer
(1) The province of Orense is eminently livestock. You must, farmer, let yourself be illustrated and advised by veterinarians for the improvement, health care and selection of your cattle.
The sanitary and zoo-technical aspects are the pillars where our livestock must rest. They are inseparable and both complement each other in such a way that one cannot speak of zoo-technical without prior health.
You must gladly complete all the points that are taught to you in Outreach Courses, Press or by outreach conferences. You must be an apostle near your own neighbors, for everything you have learned or know from your culture and knowledge. It is your duty to disclose everything that the vet teaches you about livestock. But apart from this zeal in the introduction of the ameliorating and scientific, you must completely flee from all “amateurs and connoisseurs” in diseases. By exercising these intrusiveness, they take their fateful practices to the field. They are unaware of the health problem in all its complexity, they rush to want to cure and treat diseases and their consequences are disastrous. Your cattle are worth much more than what you grant them, when you deliver them to the hands of inexperienced people who intend to cure their ailments. Have high views, in all your actions.
In the sanitary aspect, you must banish the custom of leaving the carcasses of cattle dead from contagious disease forgotten in the fields or incompletely buried. You must bury them, and for such work, an exemplary encouragement and enthusiasm must prevail among all the residents of your parish, since with this you counteract the disastrous consequences of the diffusibility of germs by various agents. Winds, dogs, birds, etc., with which YOU will also suffer the consequences. You must limit the land that is needed and bury absolutely all the cattle of any kind, in said land, which will never graze any cattle.
You must also banish the habit of taking advantage of the leather of cattle that have died of a contagious disease. It must be completely destroyed.
