BLOODY URINE. 



Hematura, or bloody urine, is caused by strain 

 of the loins, calculous concretions in the kidneys 

 or ureters, unwholesome food, rupture of small 

 blood-vessels about the bladder, &c. Treatment. 

 — Give flaxseed-tea to drink, and open the bowels 

 with a strong purgative ball, and give twice a 

 day Dr. R. Jennings's Condition Powder. 



CALCULI ; OR, STONE IN THE BLADDER. 



A horse may have these deposits in the blad- 

 der a long time before they occasion any very 

 serious disturbance in the system. Symptoms. — 

 Frequent efforts to stale, but voiding the urine 

 in very small quantities at a time, which usually 

 is of a turgid yellow or thick whitish color; 

 colicky pains are often observed, the animal kicks 

 its belly, paws, looks at its sides, and on changing 

 its position frequently gets relief. Treatment. — 

 Grive twice a day one drachm of muriatic acid in 

 a pail of water. Should this fail to give relief, 

 an operation for the removal of the stone should 

 be resorted to; this will require the assistance 

 of a competent veterinary surgeon. (See Dr. 

 Jennings on " The Horse and his Diseases.'^) I 

 have operated on some nine or ten horses for this 

 disease, and with entire success in every instance.
