in warm water, to which have been added two 
drops of carbolic acid. This is to prevent 
infection. 
Paratysis. Generally first noticed by the 
inability of the rabbit to move hindquarters. 
Oftentimes they drag the entire hindquarters 
and sometimes appear to be in great pain. 
It may be caused by any number of things, 
some saying that excessive heat will cause it. 
If caught at first, it is said that a teaspoonful 
of brandy in a glass of milk will give relief. 
It is also recommended that the back and 
hindquarters of the animal be rubbed with a 
good liniment every other day. A pill made 
of two grains of camphor and one grain sul- 
phate of iron, once a day, is said to effect a 
cure. 
Rep Water. First noticed by discolored 
urine. It is generally caused by damp hutches 
and improper feeding. We have found that 
feeding plenty of dandelions and drying up the 
hutches will generally effect a cure in two or 
three days.
