DOMESTIC ANIMALS. Ill 



the animal refuses to eat for 3 or 4 days, and the debil- 

 ity becomes pronounced, so that the horse sways from 

 side to side when led out of the stall a frequent thing 

 in such cases give about 4 quarts of milk a day until 

 the appetite returns. Some patients will drink milk 

 very readily, while others will steadily refuse it, and 

 must be made to take it by being drenched with it out 

 of a bottle or preferably a horn. A half a pint of whis- 

 key, mixed with a pint of linseed tea and given 3 times 

 a day by drenching, is often followed by an immediate 

 change for the better. Keep this up while the intense 

 debility lasts. As soon as the temperature of the pa- 

 tient is materially reduced, give a pint or two of oats 

 twice or three times a day, allowing only a pound or 

 two of hay a day while the temperature is high. If 

 grass is in season, the patient should get from 2 to 6 

 pounds a day until the temperature is nearly normal. 

 As soon as the appetite has been fairly well established, 

 give HEARD'S CONDITION POWDERS as per directions on the 

 can. It will be found that the strength will be very 

 rapidly re-established. By carrying out the treatment 

 here described, many animals that would die from this 

 disease will make a good recovery. On no account 

 must the animal be put to work before a complete re- 

 covery is established, and then the labor should be very 

 light for some time.
