All well animals should be separated from the sick 
ones and put on uninfested ground or quarters. There 
are two plans of treatment. One is to place the in-

Whichever of these remedies is used, the ingredients 
must be thoroughly mixed, and from one to three tea- 
spoonfuls injected into the trachea once a day for three 
days. The animal must be placed on his rump and

is inserted into the trachea two or three inches below 
the throat, and the medicine gradually injected. In 
treating animals affected with this or similar parasitic 
diseases, the animals are to be well fed, as soon as the 
medicinal treatment has been completed, with plenty of 
nourishing food. To build up the system is to assist 
nature in overcoming the disease. As a general rule,
