The epizooty has broken out in New
Jersey within a few days. 1t is thought
that if the disease spreads it will be more
fatal among horses than the pink-eye was.
The horses refuse to eat at first, and then
rapidly become sore and stiff. There is
no discharge at the nose. as was the case
during the disease nine years ago. The
great trouble is that the blood is being
surcharged with the poison. which can
only be driven out by powerful doses of
medicine. The horses throats soon get
to be sore that they cannot swallow,
and medicine must be forced down
them, for it cannot be administered
by hypodermic injections, as the weakness
of the suimals will not permit resorting to
such methed. All the muscles of the
spine become affected, and the general
condition Of the animal is painful to be-
hold.
