A TROCHAR FOR CATTLE-MEN. 
In Juno of 1872 we gave illustrations of a Tro- 
char and Cannula (o be used in ringing 
a bull, and on page 13 (January) and 
page 97 (March) of this Journal for 1S73 
we described the use of this apparatus 
in relieving ltoven in cattle. These ar¬ 
ticles have brought out a largo demand for 
Trochars, and failing to find just the right 
kind among the makers of surgical imple¬ 
ments, we have induced an establishment 
to undertake their manufacture. We give 
herewith a small engraving of the Trochar. 
These articles are now in the trade, and 
may be 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.
