Glanders. — " The infectious elements retain their vitality a long 

 time, and are very tenacious. Stables or rooms in which glandered 

 horses have stood, the racks and other paraphernalia which are used 

 about the diseased horses, must be carefully cleansed and disinfected. 

 Clothes and brushes, etc., used about the diseased horses must be 

 burned ; chains heated hot ; but harnesses, etc., may be thoroughly 

 cleaned and disinfected." 



Variola Ovina. — " The infectious elements soon lose their vi- 

 tality on exposure to the moving atmosphere ; hence are easily dis- 

 turbed. The manure and the walls of the pens, however, retain 

 it a long time, and are to be treated accordingly." 



Babies. — " The straw, wood-work, utensils, muzzles, collars, etc., 

 must be burned. The other disinfection is according to the usual 

 course."
