It is more prevalent some years than others, and is most common in old countries, where the soi Page 5 1 match e contents of the hernia having been returned, the surface of skin corresponding to it is sponged over with a solution composed of 1 part of nitric acid to 2 of water. This treatment ac Page 9 2 matches common brake or bracken fern, _Pteris aquilina_, has been considered responsible for the poisoning of many horses and cattle. Many cases have been reported in England and Germany, and Page 10 1 match very convenient for the purpose. THE EXAMINATION OF THE HEART. Corresponding to the beats of the heart two sounds are emitted which are of a definite type in healthy animals. The fi Page 11 2 matches applied against the chest will detect a to-and-fro friction sound, corresponding to the beats of the heart. This sound is produced by the rubbing of the internal surface of the heart ba Page 13 1 match he skin should be drawn forward so that the external wound may not correspond to the puncture of the chest, to prevent the entrance of air. Only a portion of the fluid should be removed Page 14 1 match travasated blood may be found inside of the cavity in the location corresponding to the place where the injury was inflicted externally. In some cases pus is also discovered. It remains Page 15 1 match ling. It is thought by some that some toxic influence (poison) may be responsible for its development. _Symptoms._--The symptoms usually appear suddenly and consist in inability to sta Page 18 2 matches arrhea, for example, or of excessive secretion of milk, there is a corresponding diminution of the water of the blood, and as the whole quantity of the blood is thus decreased and as th Page 19 2 matches pelvis and two or more projections that have been molded into the corresponding branches or channels which lead to corresponding lobes of the kidney. In winter and spring small concret Page 24 2 matches tors, it being now generally accepted that the disease is only rarely responsible for abortion, and further, that it exerts no apparent ill effects on the health of the animal and that Page 28 1 match the transverse diameter of that is greatly diminished and delivery correspondingly facilitated. If the head is still inclosed in the vagina two methods are available: (1) The removal o Page 29 2 matches ery minute hairlike processes on the chorion (_E_), which fit into corresponding depressions or pits of the maternal portion. Each portion is abundantly supplied with blood vessels, so Page 31 1 match by soft, conical processes, which are received into cavities of a corresponding size on the summit of the firm, mushroom-shaped cotyledon growing from the inner surface of the womb. To Page 32 4 matches Pricking the skin with a pin also fails to bring any wincing or other response. The pulse, at first from 50 to 70 a minute, becomes weaker and more accelerated as the disease advances.

Continuous support by bandages will generally Page 41 1 match made, take a light piece of wood about the size of a lead pencil, corresponding in length to the size of the wound or slightly longer, and insert it through each of the loops, drawing Page 44 3 matches skin, and, when removed by maceration, presents depressions which correspond to the elevations on the dermis. From the cuticle tubular prolongations pass into the sebaceous and sudorif Page 47 1 match e eyelids from intolerance of light, retraction of the eyeball and corresponding protrusion of the haw, disinclination to move, diminution of milk secretion, etc. On parting the lids th Page 48 1 match .

This definition might include diseases caused by certain animal parasites, suc Page 50 1 match the lung. This disease is frequently called the lung plague, which corresponds to its German name of Lungenseuche. In French it is spoken of as the pÈripneumonie contagieuse.
