mation, wiiich may leave his organ in such a sore, irritated condition that he will 

 have no desire to serve a cow until he has been treated with an antiseptic solution. 



Bulls Should Have Attention. 



The solution, which should be injected into the sheath of the bull, should destroy 

 germs and soothe and heal the irritated and inflamed mucous membrane. 



This will enable him to serve a cow when called upon to do so, at the same 

 time preventing him from infecting cows that he may be bred to, also preventing 

 him from becoming infected. 



TREATMENT OF BARRENNESS. 



All barren cows and heifers should be given Breeding Tonic in their feed, and 

 their genital organs should be washed out with the Antisepto Solution. 



Barrenness is due either to a diseased or weakened condition of the genital 

 organs. It is unreasonable to expect a cow or heifer to breed until this condition 

 is overcome. 



The Breeding Tonic contains such ingredients as are necessary to tone, 

 strengthen and regulate the genital organs in this manner putting them in a strong, 

 healthy, breeding condition. 



Antiseptic Solution Important. 



The genital organs of all barren cows and heifers should be washed out with 

 this solution until they conceive, whether they have a discharge or not. 



This solution will prevent and overcome the acid secretions which kill the 

 semen of the bull and prevent the cow from conceiving. 



It will also prevent and destroy germs, soothe and heal all inflamed mucous 

 membranes, thus preventing the formation of germs and the spread of the disease. 

 7 If the cow or heifer be cared for ac- 



cording to the demands of nature and 

 fails to get with calf after being bred a 

 reasonable number of times, she should 

 then be classed as a barren animal. Upon 

 examination of the neck of the womb it 

 is usually found to be tightly closed. The 

 neck of the womb contains three car- 

 tilage rings, which in this closed condi- 

 tion are found to be much contracted. 

 This should be overcome by the use of a 

 womb sound and dilator. 



Artificial Means Necessary. 



Insert the Womb Sound, then follow 

 with the Womb Dilators which over- 

 come this unnatural diseased condition 

 by being placed as far into the neck of 

 the womb as possible. These dilators 

 contain a preparation which, when it 

 comes in contact with the neck of the 

 womb, or cartilage rings, is absorbed, the 

 result being that the neck of the womb 

 and cartilage rings relax their rigid and 

 contracted condition. The dilator at the 

 same time absorbs moisture, and slowly 

 but firmly expands, and by so doing di- 

 lates the neck of the womb, rendering 

 conception easy. In case a cow or heifer 

 does not conceive after the use of one 

 dilator, a second should be used, as per- 

 haps the dilation of the second or third
