Practical Veterinary Pharmacology 
and Therapeutics 
By HOWARD JAY MILKS 
Professor of Therapeutics and Small Animal Clinic, New York State 
Veterinary College, Cornell University 
8vo. $4.25 
This book is designed as a text-book for students and practitioners in 
veterinary medicine. In addition to the usual discussion on the action 
and uses of drugs there are chapters on the method of action of drugs, 
incompatibilities, solubilities, prescription writing and biologic prepa- 
rations. 
Drugs are grouped according to their therapeutic indications or uses 
and the general therapeutic considerations are taken up just before the 
members of the group are discussed in detail. Thus the general ac- 
tions and uses of the group and the detailed study of the drugs belong- 
ing to it are discussed in the same chapter. This plan differs from 
many texts in which the various therapeutic groups are discussed 
briefly in the first part of the book and to which no reference is made 
under the detailed discussion of the drugs.

The author gives advice in a brief and popular manner on the dis- 
eases and ailments of farm animals. It is a book which will enable 
those who have the care of animals to detect indications of disease and 
to make timely application of the necessary remedies. 
“Tt includes about all that the practical keeper of live-stock has need 
of, and the method of presentation could hardly be better. The expo- 
sition has the charm of perfect clearness and simplicity, which makes 
the book agreeable even to the reader not in search of specific facts.” —
