year has a strong correlation with the majority of cases occurring in the fall months. Anaplasmosis is endemic to the State of Kentucky because it is seen every year.

"Mad cow" disease is a deadly disease caused by prions in the brains of cattle. The real name of this disease is bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE). Abnormal prions are usually found in the brain tissue of many diseased cattle and they transmit the infection. Many changes are seen in the brain of infected cattle. Infection can lead to small holes in parts of the brain, giving the tissue a sponge-like appearance when viewed with a microscope. These small holes cause slow decline in a cow’s brain

A small herd of 14 Brahman cross weaners and our schools Ausline cattle; 1 cow and calf, 1 heifer, and 1 steer, housed in the same 40 acre paddock were provided access to one water trough. The data for this investigation was collected using a spear gate and walk-over weighing system, which the cattle has to pass in order to access the water trough. The spear gate prevented any other access to water and allowed the animals to leave the water compound. As the collection of these results, and the time
