Gra?i2ilar Veueral Disease of Cozvs 1113 



When the disease exists in a herd, all breeding should be sus- 

 pended during treatment. When it is deemed safe to resume 

 breeding, the sheath and penis of the bull should be disinfected 

 by irrigating, immediately before and after each service, as ad- 

 vised above. The vulva of the cow should be carefully inspected 

 daily after service, and antiseptic irrigations resumed at any 

 time conditions may so indicate. 



The attitude of veterinary sanitary authorities toward the dis- 

 ease in this country is yet to be determined. In Europe, many 

 investigators recommend listing it among the serious infectious 

 disea.ses, and controlling it by quarantine. 



It is to be hoped that a careful study of this malady will now 

 be made b}^ numerous practitioners, and its nature and best mode 

 of handling promptly determined.
