Editor Of the Spy In your valuable paper
OF the 18th ult., you made mention of an
alarming disease now raging among horses in
this city and neighborhood and, as every one
feels an interest in the health and happiness of
this useful animal, the horse with your per
mission will give a few extracts from some of
the standard works of the day, describing the
disease and its various forms.
Veterinary surgeons recognize this disease
under various names. Ii is called endemic
catarrh influenza, distemper, catarrhal fever.
Scaratna, malignant scarlet fever, &C. The
above names seem only to indicate particular
types or stages OF the disease

su lden, ushered in by shivering,and thai quick

OF the nose, swelled and weeping eyes, depict

tarrh, but under somewhat aggravated form.

neither is 1t simple catarrh for as early as
4he second day there is evident debility. The
horse staggers as he walks. This is itiamma-

the disease the appetite is entirely gone, and
the secretions from the bowels become checked
and constipation ensues
This disease prevailed in England in 1915,
and three out OF five of all attacked with it
