Metastatic Eaminitis Foeeowing Metritis [By George 
Green , Rf.R.C.V A.].—A mare that had dropped her colt easily 
did not clean, and the placenta had to be removed three days 
after, when symptoms of metritis were becoming manifest. The 
treatment consisted in hot fomentations to the loins; opium, 
aconite and belladonna internally ; nitrated drinks. Improve¬ 
ment soon appeared, but all of a sudden symptoms of laminitis 
showed themselves in both fore feet. Hot poultices were ap¬ 
plied, linseed oil, with one dose of aconite administered ; then 
blisters to the feet. Mare recovered rapidly.—( Veterinarian .)
