SUBSPINAL ANESTHESIA 57 



If it is desired to continue the skin anesthesia until 

 the end of the operation, a few drops of the stovaine 

 solution injected along the line of incision will give 

 this result. 



In case obturator paralysis supervenes, the dog is 

 kept quiet for several hours after operation. No treat- 

 ment is necessary, as it always passes off in a few 

 hours. 



This method of anesthetizing, although used by 

 some veterinarians for a number of years, is in direct 

 accord with the most recent progress along surgical 

 lines, namely anoci-association or the prevention of 

 surgical shock. Professors Crile and Lower have 

 just completed a valuable monograph on anoci-associ- 

 ation which is now in the hands of the publishers.
