the former case, it was present for nearly an equal proportion of the whole period
(55.05%).
Further attention should be drawn to the ratio of urea and hippuric acid existing in
these two cases—in Mule I the large amount of urea in health with the small quantity of
hippuric acid, and in Mule II the small quantity of urea and large amount of hippuric acid.
The ratio of urea to hippuric acid during the period in which the latter was excreted,
was, in Mule I, 20.9: 1, and in Mule II, 1.15 : 1, the difference being 14 to 1.
Albumen.—There is also a marked difference to be observed as regards the presence of
albumen in the urine in the two mules. In No. I, which received corn in addition to the
fodder, and which at an early stage of the disease was unable to take much exercise, a
large amount of albumen appeared in the urine during the third paroxysm of Surra, in all
987.35 grammes being passed. In the case of Mule II receiving only fodder, and taking
exercise daily until death, no albumen was found in the urine.
Water.—Although the animals were practically the same weight, and took nearly the
same amount of water in health and the latent period, Mule II (on fodder only) took twice
the quantity of water during the paroxysms and intermissions as Mule I (on corn); vide
Table No. XXXII.
Another marked point of difference between these two animals was in the ratio of total
water ingested to the body weight. In No. I, in health, it was about 1:15, and just before
death as 1: 57. Whereas in No. II the ratios were 1 : 19.7 and 1: 9, respectively. The
total loss of body weight in the two animals at the time of death was 36.69 % (corn):
18.5 % (fodder) or a ratio of 2:1.
Total Solids in Urine.—Mule I averaged less total solids daily than Mule II. The ratios
for the different periods in each case, health period being taken as 1, were :—

It will be observed in the above table that, as in other particulars noted, the ratios are
almost diametrically opposite.
Dung.-Mule I passed more in health than the one on fodder only, but the amount
passed by the former decreased more rapidly, as the disease advanced, the ratios being

Temperature and Humidity of the Atmosphere.—It was necessary to take these factors
into account, when dealing with experiments on the ingesta and egesta of fluids, owing to
the great variation of temperature and humidity daily, this being more important in the
tropics than in temperate climates. Although these experiments were carried out during
the driest period of the year, the temperature and humidity varied as follows:—

The following observations were made with regard to the changes in the blood, before and
after several inoculations, and administration of Iodides of Arsenic and Mercury.
The blood was microscopically examined for several days previous to inoculation, and then
for the 30 succeeding days, during which no hæmatozoa appeared.

The blood was then examined for a period of 57 days, in order to allow for the disease
to develop if the animal was susceptible. During this time the coarsely granular corpuscles
were numbered in addition. The animal was then re-inoculated with Bandicoot's blood, and
the examination continued for a further period of 37 days.
