170 RURAL DENMARK 



where cattle and horses suffering from internal diseases 

 are treated, and a house for sick poultry. 



The last department which I saw was that for lost 

 and ailing dogs, where the latter are doctored at 

 a charge of 70 ore (or about 8d.) a day, and when 

 necessary operated upon. Distemper, too, is dealt with 

 in this place, and I even noted an indisposed parrot 

 that was receiving suitable and skilled attention. 



Here I must close a brief and inadequate descrip- 

 tion of this wonderful college, to which it would not 

 be difficult to devote half the pages of a book.
