THE VETEEIXAEIAN 



Treatment: Uemove the liogs to clean, dry pens con- 

 taining plenty of clean bedding, and wash the affected 

 parts with some good disinfectant, as &Ye per cent solu- 

 tion of Carbolic Acid. Eepeat this treatment at least 

 once a day. In case the feet are badly inflamed, I would 

 advise the application of hot Flaxseed Meal poultices 

 to the feet. Feed easily digested food, as it aids mate- 

 rially in the treatment of infectioiis wounds.
