Excerpt from Foot-Rot of Sheep: Its Nature, Cause, and Treatment Sir: I have the honor to transmit herewith a paper entitled "Foot-rot of sheep: Its nature, cause, and treatment," by John R. Mohler, V. M. D., chief, and Henry J. Washburn, D. V. S., acting assistant chief, of the Pathological Division of this Bureau. Owing to the magnitude of the sheep industry in this country and the serious character of the disease in question, it is of prime economic importance that our sheepmen should be in possession of full information concerning the nature, cause, and treatment of this malady. The authors have endeavored to present these matters in a clear and comprehensive manner by means of an analysis of the previous knowledge of the subject, supplemented by original investigations and experiments undertaken for this work. Foot-rot of sheep, while not usually fatal in its results, is nevertheless a possible source of great danger and loss to sheep owners because of its highly contagious nature and the frequent violence of its outbreaks, whereby the animals become stunted, owing to the slow, protracted course of the disease; to all of which must be added the difficulty of completely eradicating the virus from the soil and premises. In view of these considerations, I recommend the publication of the article as Bulletin No.63 of the Bureau series.

During the last two decades substantial advances have been made in research on footrot and foot abscess. The results of this research are presented in this volume. Footrot and foot abscess differ from most other communicable diseases in that they are mixed bacterial infections, which are regarded as the most economically important contagious disease of sheep in Australia today. This book is aimed at practicing veterinarians, government animal health officers and research scientists who are interested in diagnosis, treatment and prevention of economically important bacterial diseases of the ruminant hoof. It covers the microbiology of two major pathogens, Bacteroides nodosus and Fusobacterium necrophorum, and the pathology, immunology and epidemiology of footrot and foot abscess. It contains up-to-date information on various strategies currently used to control these diseases in sheep in Australia and New Zealand. Of special interest to clinicians will be sections on diagnosis which are comprehensively illustrated with pictures of various clinical entities together with differential diagnosis of other infections that localize in the digits. Developments in immunological control recently advanced by exciting opportunities to produce defined vaccines by recombinant DNA technology are also reviewed. Consideration is given to the application of biotechnology to rapid and accurate diagnosis. Sections on diagnosis are illustrated with pictures of various clinical entities together with differential diagnosis of other infections that localize in the digits. Reports achievements of great practical value Covers microbiology, pathology, immunology and epidemiology of each condition
