Book excerpt: Excerpt from Diseases of Turkeys Blackhead was considered to be the most important disease of turkeys in California until Graybill showed that other diseases were causing much of the mortality. Subsequent investigations have shown that these losses have many causes, some of which have been studied sufficiently to warrant definite recommendations regarding prevention and control, whereas others are still either undetermined or in need of more research. This bulletin reports progress on certain turkey-disease problems still being studied at this station. It also brings together previously published data both from this station and from other sources. In the first section will be discussed some general principles of prevention and control, applicable to all diseases. Since prevention is the keynote of disease con trol, very little space will be devoted to treatment. Some of the materials listed in this bulletin may become scarce and unavailable because of the war. In such cases, it is suggested that the reader consult his local veterinarian or county farm advisor, or write to the Agricultural Extension Service, University of California, Berkeley, to learn about possible substitutes that may be used. Great caution should be exercised in the use of substitutes unless they have been proved of value for the intended service.
