A Trochar for Cattle-Men. 
In June of 1872 we gave illustrations of a Trochar and 
Cannula to lie used in ringing a bull, and on 
page 13 (January) and page 97 (March) of the 
American Agriculturist for 1873 (copies of 
which may be got from this office for 15 cents 
each) we described the use of this apparatus 
in relieving lioven in cattle. These ar¬ 
il tides have brought out a large demand for 
Trochars. and failing to find just the right 
I kind among the makers of surgical imple- 
I ments, we have induced an establishment 
|H to undertake their manufacture. We give 
II herewith a small engraving of the Trochar. 
These articles are now in the trade, and 
’ may he had of most dealers in agricultural 
implements. Those who can not get them from dealers 
can receive them from this office, prepaid, for $ 1 . 00 .
