SIMPLE CORYZA IN CATTLE. 



Coryza mild in cattle. General treatment. Coryza in sheep from expo- 

 sure, intemperate seasons, clipping. Acute and chronic. Wholesale treat- 

 ment in flocks. Coryza in pigs. Coryza in dogs, simple, secondary. 

 Treatment, food, laxative, febrifuge, nauseating, expectorant, antiseptic, 

 gaseous, electric. 



This is usually a very simple malady when confined to the 

 nasal chambers, and not of infective origin. When, on the 

 other hand, it attacks the sinuses it becomes a disease of extreme 

 gravity. (See Catarrh of the Sinuses). Symptoms are as seen in 

 the horse, but the discharge may be overlooked because of the 

 animal licking it out with his tongue. Treatment does not essen- 

 tially differ from that laid down above, and recovery may be ex- 

 pected in seven or eight days. If a laxative is wanted give from 

 one to two pounds Epsom salts. 



SIMPLE CORYZA IN SHKEP. 



Coryza is usually slight and is manifested by sneezing and run- 

 ning from the nose. It occurs in animals clipped or badly shel- 

 tered during the more inclement seasons. In the worst cases the 

 discharge becomes persistent and emaciation ensues so that it is 

 necessary to interfere. Valuable animals may be treated on the 

 same principles as oxen, and in the case of large flocks by shelter 

 in a warm, dry, cleanly and airy place and fumigations of steam 

 and the fumes of burning sulphur repeated daily, together with 

 nourishing diet, such as boiled barley or other grain, and quarter 

 ounce doses of nitre and common salt. 



CORYZA IN THE PIG. 



Hogs are not very subject to this disease and are easily treated 

 by warm, sloppy food, and as a laxative three or four croton 

 beans, according to size, powdered and given in the aliment. 



CORYZA IN DOGS. 



Dogs are rarely the subjects of simple coryza, though it is 

 constant in distemper. It sometimes proves troublesome in pup-
