 keep the animal very quiet and feed on eoft food to keep Mm 

 bowels loosi^ Swelling will take place, and between the .^welling 

 and the stitches it will keep the bowels in their place and the hole 

 will heal up, and there will be no more trouble with the rupture.

 longer than you would if the animal was all right. ■

 CASTRAnOIf. 



In some cases where there is a very slight rupture which is 

 not noticed during castration, and after the animal is let up and 

 walks around, in a few hours the fatty lining of the bowels comes 

 out — it may be out from six inches to two feet. 



Symptoms. — When you go to see the colt there will be 

 something hanging from the cut, generally of red color, and 

 when you feel it, it is of a fatty feeling and the animal does not 

 seem to take any notice of it at all ; he feeds away and seems m 

 perfect health. 



Treatment.— Take a scissors and cut it off; there is n« 

 danger of bleeding or any trouble, and watch that there is «• 

 more comes out. 



ABSCESSES PORHIBD IN SCROTUM AFTER CASTRATION. 



This generally comes in a case where the animal is all healed 

 up and seems to be doing very nicely. 



Caases. — Some dried matter; a dead piece of the cord or a sliver 

 being left in the scrotum after it is healed. This causes mi 

 irritation, ttarti it to fester and forms an abscess. 



Symptoms* — ^Th«re will be heat, pain and swelling around tkm 

 •erotum or bag:, luad the animal will walk very stiff in his hiai 



Trettmentr— Foultice and bathe well, rub with weak whUe 

 flnlment. This will brinf the abscess to a head, then lance it mmi 

 allow the matter to run out, or in some cases the poultice wtt 

 briaf it to a bead an4 H will break of its own accord.
