Catarrh In sheep.

The chief diseases OF the breathing
organs are catarrh. or cold: and pneu-
monia. or Inflammation OF the lungs.
Catarrh is known by profuse running
at the nose. often accompanied by a
cough. II is disease OF the winter
and spring months, and is generally the
result OF too close and warm stabling.
Sheep need dry bedding and protection
from rain. but their health demands a
free exposure TO the open air. Catarrh
is troublesome, but not dangerous
disease. unless the Inflammation ex-
tends to the lungs, when 1t becomes
pneumonia. which is generally fatal.
This transition is marked by a quick
and labored breathing. frequent hack
ing cough and grinding of the teeth
together. The discharge from the nos
trils becomes yellow: high fever. loss
OF appetite and thirst are present.
Bleeding and purging with EPSON salts
is the treatment recommended, but
usually death terminates the case in .
day or two. under any treatment. This
disease Is often the result of exposure
to cold rains after shearing.-J. r
Tomlinson.
