 has the mange, lie is four years old, has been fed on oat meal ' 

 bread and milk, table f craps, etc. His eyes look bright, but at ni^ht n 

 thick yellow matter gathers in them. Tongue and lips look naturafonlv 

 perhaps a little thicker. Body is hot and dry with bare spots on points 

 of elbows outside of forelegs, and which are sore. He smells very loud"- 

 hair nearly all off tail ; seems to be thirsty all the tune ; drinks an enor' 

 mons amount of water, which runs away from him nearly as fast as he 

 drinks it. Testicles bang low all the time, one has been swelled to three 

 times its natural size, but it is all right now. He pants a great deal 

 Seems to itch intensely ; wants to scratch with both hind feet and bite 

 himself at same time. His flanks are drawn in some, breathing rather 

 labored at 126 respiration ; condition of bowels variable. Appetite van- 

 able. Water colorless. I am giving Donovan's Solution three times a 

 day, tinct. of iron once a day and wash with Caswell & Hazard's Juni- 

 per Tar Soap and black wash. He has been chained up until lately has 

 his liberty now. Ans. Give plenty of exercise and light diet See that 

 black wash is made as per prescription 37, Hallock's "Gazetteer '- You 

 do not describe the form of the eruption so that we ca n tell what it is 

 You will find particulars in "Gazeiteer." Drop the tinct. of iron- it inter- 

 feres with the Donovan. Increase closes of Donovan's as per p'rescrin 

 tioti 35 and give him also a dose of calomel as per prescription 22, and 

 follow with the second prescription of .No. 10, leaving out the calomel 

 and podophyllin. Give morning and evening. 



Setter, Baltimore.-My setter has several sore places on his hind 

 quarters and one under his tail close to the root, the latter being he 

 first to appear. Yesterday they came out on the outside of his legs on^ 

 or two near the hip bone on each leg, and about four on each 'side 

 They first appeared making the skin look pink through the hair then 

 they became raised like the bite of a mosquito and as large as a ten-cen 

 piece. They then have a formation of matter on the surface not deen 

 but they do not. seem to hurt him much and he licks them at times but 

 not as if they were much trouble to him. I washed him with strone-' 

 dark carbolic soap and he seems better; two were nearly dry if nn 

 more break out he will soon be over these. Ans. Put the animal on low 

 diet and wash each day with Juniper Tar Soap, and also apply twice or 

 three times each day the following wash: Calomel, one dr • svrnn r 

 acacia and glycerine, each five drs. Fluid extract of conium'isou ob'J 

 five drs. Mix in the order given in a mortar, and when thorough v 1, 

 corporate* add liquor calcis, q. s. to make one pint, meantime stirrint 

 slowly ; shake well before using and apply freely. Also give eight dron 3 

 of Donovan's solution in water, three times a day, taking care tha it " 

 not given on an empty stomach. ■ See that your dog has a clean bed and 

 that it is frequently changed. Do not allow him to lie on the ground 

 under the house, as the damp exhalations only aggravate the malady.
