AILING ANIMALS 
Puff* 
I inirchased recently a four-.year-old 
trotter that developed a small wind puff 
on each hind leg in the gambrel joint. I 
have reduced them about one-third. Is 
there any way of taking them off entirely, 
or some method that will reduce them? I 
have been using him daily on the road, 
iind training him some, and he has never 
shown any signs of lameness. Soine say 
that as soon as I commence to train him 
for track work he will go lame; others 
say that they may never bother him no 
matter hoAv strenuous the work is. He 
has all kinds of speeds and should make 
a good record. F.u c. 
Such distensions are filled with .synoxia 
(joint oil) and not “wind.” The disten¬ 
sion is of the articular ligament of the 
joint or a tendinous .sheath, dependent 
iipou its position. The treatment you 
have been giving may. suffice, although 
such distensions tend to prove perma¬ 
nent. Pressure from a truss might prove 
beneficial. If lameness ensues when the 
horse is tracked line-firing and blistering 
by a qualified veterinarian would be the 
l)est treatment. A. S. A, 
Infected Quarter 
My hc'ifor had a hard little lump at 
the end of her teat; she also was .a hard 
iiiilker. 1 was advi.sed to insert a milk¬ 
ing tube in the milk duct, dipped in 
iodine and massage the teat with the 
tube in it, with lard and iodine. After a 
while the teat and left hiiul quarter be¬ 
came intlamed and milk flow dropped to 
almost nothing. The affected quarter is 
now very hard and a yellow discharge 
comes out of the milk duct and hole in the 
upper part of the teat. Is there any cure 
for this quarter, or have I to fatten the 
animal for beef? k. 
New York. 
The milking tube carried infection into 
the quarter, pus formed and the present 
condition is^incurable and has permanent¬ 
ly ruined tlfe quarter for milk pi’oductioii. 
In the first place, the small obstructive 
tumor should have been cut out, or at 
least slit through in four different direc¬ 
tions by means of a sterilized teat histu- 
ary. We should advise you to isolate the 
cow, slit the teat open or amputate a 
small portion of the teat to allow free 
escape of pus, then fatten the animal for 
the butcher, provided it has been proved 
by application .of the tuberculin test that 
she is free from tuberculosis, as that 
disease! Bometime<> 'causes such conditions 
of the udder. . A. ». A, 
Bots 
(Juuld you let me know what is good 
to get rid of bots in horses? p. b. e. 
Pots infest the stomach of every horse 
that has pastured grass, and do no ap¬ 
preciable harm in a majorit.v of cases. 
In a few they may eau.se colicky pains 
by hooking onto the lining membrane of 
the rectum when they are passing out 
of the body on grass in .Tune or later. 
No medicine has been found that will kill 
bots in the stomach without injury to 
the horse, but it is said that they may 
be driven out by giving repeated two- 
dram doses of bisulphid of carbon in 
gelatine capsules after starving the horse 
for 12 hours or more. Such worm cap¬ 
sules are for sale on the market and no 
doubt can be obtained from your drug¬ 
gist. Prevention is better than treat¬ 
ment. Clip or singe hot eggs from the 
hair of the legs and breast in summer 
or destroy them by applying a five per 
cent, solution of carbolic acid or coal 
tar dip. A. s. A. 
Pink-eye 
I have several cows with pink-eye, and 
cannot find anything that will help them. 
Does it affect the milk in any way? 
Indiana. E." M. 
Isolate affected cows in a darkened 
stable and disinfect and whitewash the 
stable where they have been. The dis- 
ea.se is contagious. Treat by bathing the 
eyes twice daily with a saturated solution 
of boric acid and every other da.v dust 
the eyeballs with a mixt^ure of equal parts 
of finely powdered calomel and boric acid. 
The milk should not be used when fever 
is present during the early stages.of the 
attack. a.'b. A,
