trices over tlie body, keratitis traumatica in the 

 right eye, 



2. Bhick bay stallion, lo years old ; dissected on July 



6th, '88. Aunviiiesis was the same as the preced- 

 ing. Status pracseiis: many cicatrices arranged 

 in chains were found on the right fide of neck 

 and the left side of thorax. 



3. Cliestnut stallion, lOyarsold ; dissected on July 6th, 



'88. yi;/rt'ww.s-/.s- not exactly known. Status prae- 

 sens : many cicatrices on the right jugular region. 



4. Bay stallion, 12 years old; dissected on July 7th, 



'88. Anamnesis : 7 years ago affected and suc- 

 cessfully treated. Status praescns : no trace of 

 cicatri.x ; one nodule of uncertain nature in the 

 skin. 



5. Dark- chestnut stallion, 5 years old ; dissected on 



July 8th, '88. Anaviiu'sis : affected in Novem- 

 ber, 1886, and successfully treated. At that time 

 the intermaxillary gland was also swollen and 

 turned to abscess. Status praesens : 17 cica- 

 trices on the left jugular and scapular region. 



6. Light chestnut stallion, 10 years old ; dissected 



on Aug. 8th, '88. Auaiiiuesis not exactlj- known. 



Status praesens : 5 cicatrices on the breast ; 



extensive saddle gall. 

 Postmortevi we found in one case a very small nodule in the 

 lungs, in another, a cicatrix in the nose, and in the 3rd (5.), a 

 slight thickening of the intermaxillary gland with deposit of 

 lime. The changes found in the latter 2 horses were certainly old 

 traces of farcj% but we may regard them as cured ; for, there 

 was no evidence of actual processes going on. The pulmonary 

 nodule was of doubtful nature. In other respects there was 

 no sign of actual existence of the disease. According to the 

 experience of veterinary practitioners in farcy districts, the 

 cutaneous form without nasal complication is mostly curable by 

 surgical treatment. But we must not forget that, nasal affection 

 and the affection of testicles and lungs are by no means un- 

 common, and in such cases, except for slight affections of 

 the testicle, complete cure is questionable. According to a 

 report from Mij-agi-ken total morbidity for 5 years (1887-1891)
