In this table the extraordinary prevalence of lung diseases in 

 spring and autumn is very noticeable. There only remains to 

 notice the number of deaths occurring in the same regiment from 

 pulmonary and other diseases. 



Deaths from pulmonary disease 77 



Deaths from other diseases (Glanders and Farcy 



and accidents excepted) 57 



It is thus seen that though individually less dangerous than 

 many afEections of the abdomen, brain, etc. , yet by reason of their 

 greater frequency, chest diseases induce the greatest mortality 

 among this class of stock. 



In treating of the diseases of this class of organs they will be 

 sub-divided according as they affect the nose, the throat, the 

 neck, or the chest.
