and space than can be afforded, and would only be a 

 rehearsal of what is recorded in the 1865 visitation to 

 England. For an English history of this disease in all 

 parts of the world, the reader is referred to a work of 

 six to seven hundred pages by Professor Gamgee, pub- 

 lished in London. In this work much letter press is 

 to be seen, but not much to be learned from it, and no 

 such views as I have here presented, are even hinted at. 

 Parliamentary reports, Order from Privy Council, letters, 

 editorials and suggestions contained in the London 

 Times, together with the reports and actions of the In- 

 ternational Veterinary Congress, held on the Continent 

 of Europe, go to make up this large book.

 by tumors varying in size from a grain of corn to that 

 of a hickory nut. 



Treatment. — Squeeze the tumor and the larva is 

 forced out, which puts an end to the tumors.
