first week, give tine, cantharis (H., 3ss; D., m.i) with same amount 

 of fluidextract of cannabis indica. In bleeding from bladder, irri- 

 gate with adrenalin, 639, with .1-5,000 solution; also inject water at 

 130 deg. F. Urethral hemorrhage stopped by retention of catheter 

 in urethra. If adrenalin stops bleeding, when injected into bladder, 

 the source of the trouble is proven. Hematuria in young cows: 

 This is enzootic in low-lying pastures; change pastures, drain pas- 

 tures and fertilize them with lime and phosphates. 



Hemoglobinuria. Azoturia in Horses. 



Support in slings in box stall. Empty bladder by pressure through 

 the rectum or by catheter. Purge with barium, 159; or eserine, 

 418. Apply hot blankets. A'enesection, 629, and replace by saline 

 infusion, 733, in strong animals. Allow normal salt solution to flow 

 slowly into rectum to stimulate kidneys. In restlessness, chloral, 

 318; with heart weakness, strychnine, 408. 



Diet — Bran mashes, hay, roots, green food, little hay. Prevent 

 by light feeding, when not working, or by exercise every day. 



Hemoglobinuria in Cattle. Texas Fever. 



This is caused by a protozoan parasite conveyed by ticks or their 

 ova to cattle. Prevention. — Remove ticks from cattle by brushing 

 or scraping them off; or by spraying or smearing cattle with 

 following mixture: 1 gallon each of kerosene and cottonseed oil, 

 and 1 lb. of sulphur. Brush or spray legs and sides of cattle twice 

 weekly from June to November. Dipping cattle in crude Beau- 

 mont petroleum in a vat may be done to large numbers of cattle. 

 By keeping cattle in spring in inclosures, tick-free inclosures, three 

 weeks in each in turn, the ticks fall off and the cattle are not 

 reinfested. The inclosures are then disinfected by spraying with 

 kerosene and burning. 



Freeing Pastures of Ticks. — Exclude animals from June to 

 November. Cultivate or burn over pastures. Pasture rotation. 



Immunizing. — Young stock may be immunized by innoculation 

 with 1-3 c.c. of defibrinated blood from an immune animal. The 

 treatment involves a mortality of about 7 per cent. 



Hemophilia. 



In "bleeders," inject antidiphtheric serum (H., Jiv; D., Jss) and 

 make local application of adrenalin chloride solution, 639, or sub- 

 cutaneous injection of it into bleeding part (1-10,000). Very hot 

 or cold water, compression. Pure tannic acid, 593. Internally,
