EPIZOOTIC CATARRH. 



This ailment is an inflammation of the membranes of 

 the nose, windpipe and lungs. However, if taken in time, 

 is easily cured. The causes in most cases is filthy pens, hav-

 out in cold rains, sleet, or hail storms. The pores of the 

 skin become clogged, therefore the natural process of per-

SYMPTOMS :— Hoarse cough; difficult breathing; 

 head droops ; movements slow, stiff, and tottering. When 

 squealing the sound is hoarse. Feverish most of the time ; 

 constipated or diarrhoea; prone to vomit. If the animal 

 staggers and wanders about as if blind, the brain is affected. 

 Ulcers may appear on different portions of the body, indi-
