GLANDERS— FARCY. 



Glanders is a domestic disease. Among the many 

 causes we will enumerate: keeping in damp, impure stables, 

 improper feeding, and debilitating diseases, as epizootic in- 

 fluenza, catarrh, lung fever, grease heels or any disease 

 capable of generating pus; this pus is absorbed into the 

 general circulation, forming a ferment in the blood; the 

 result of nature trying to rid itself of this offending mat- 

 ter, is seen in the ulcerations of the lining membrane O'f 

 the nose. 



SYMPTOMS: — Glanders are recognized by ulcera- 

 tions of the lining membrane of the nose. These ulcers 

 discharge pus of a yellowish color, later a greenish color ; 

 this pus is very tenacious or sticky, rapidly drying up 

 when spread over the nostrils, and sinking in water. There 

 is one symptom that is never absent in this disease, and 

 that is the enlarged gland under the jaw. Horses af-, 

 fected with chronic glanders will live and work for years, 

 which fact, has caused dissatisfaction with local laws,pro- 

 hibiting the use of glandered horses.
