INDIGESTION IN CALVKs. indigestion
In young calves produces diarrhrl.
That is caused by weakness of the
stomach aid deficiency Of gastric juice.
The milk passes through tho bowels in
liquid slate, and the calf is not only
deprived of nutriment.but is weakened
by the pain in the bowels. A remedy
Is to give rennet, or infusion OF a
calf's stomach that has been dried tor
use in making cheese. This is the
same kind Of prcpal alton as that known
as pepsine, used in medicine, and has
the same effect in str, ngthtning the
digestion. Milk cannot be digested
until 1t has been curdled In the stomach
and tins requisite curdling cannot oc-
cur without Il sufficient secretion of
gastric juice. Sometimes a tablespoon
tul Of hnsecd-oil, stirred in the milk
until it is thoroughly mixed, will have
the effect OF restoring she digestive ao-
tion.
