dllat«d or •nlarg'ed, pulse is quick and weak, the Hningf around the 



•yee and nose becomes very much reddened ; by placing your ear 



to th« aides of the chest or to the windpipe there is ^ ^peculiar 



gnrgling noise ; the leg's and ears will be cold. If the disease 



follows a case of catarrh or influenza he then will be noticed to 



refuse his food, tremble all over the body, ears and legs cold, 



mouth hot, pulse quick and weak, and by placing your ear at the 



sides you will hear the peculiar sounds. The animal stands, as he 



is g'enerally found to do in all lung troubles, and if he does go to 



lie down will get up immediately. If the animal does not soon 



gfet relief the disease will run into inflammation of the lungs. 



Treatment. — The treatment must be quick. This is not a 



very fatal disease, but a simple one to treat if taken in time. 



Keep him well supplied with good, fresh air, and always 



be careful he does not stand in a draft. Keep the body well 



covered according to the time of the year, and give 



Sweet Spirits of Nitre 1 ounce, or' 4 tablespoonfula.

Put in a pint of cold water, shake well and give as a drench. 



being careful not to choke the animal in giving it. Have the legs 



well hand rubbed, if cold, and bandaged ; and if the animal is in 



high condition and full of blood it is well to give, with the above 



drench,

Also put a mustard plaster on the sides over the lungs. Take ^ lb. of 



mustard, with 3 or 4 tablespoonfuls of flour and enough vinegar 



or warm water to make it into the form of a paste. Rub this well 



•▼•r the sides of the chest with the hand, and in some cases it if 



wen t* mb the front of the chest as well as the sides. In some 



•asM we find great benefit in having* cloths wrung out of warm 



water held up to the sides. If he is not relieved in a couple of 



hours give, another drench, same as the one mentioned above ; 



nptLt the drench every two hours until the animal has relief. It 



It also w^ to give him only a mouthful of cold water at a time, 



but gfrt It to kim often. Feed him soft food, and after he begins 



to get better, exercise him a little by walking around ; also giva
