COWS WITH LUldPY JAW.

! have three letters this week, one
from Mrs. E. E. NJ, Tennessee; one
from w. P. J., North Carolina, and
one from B. G. n, Texas, complain
ing of "a strange disease that is at
fecting our cows" The last named
correspondent writes that many cows
in his neighb0rho0d are affected In
the same way.
All of the descriptions given SO
plainly indicate lumpy jaw that am
going to reply to all three In this
one letter, as the remedies given
are entirely suited to all. All OF
these letters were replied to the same
day they we're received, but remedies
for lumpy jaw are SO often requested
that 1t may be of help to others to
publish the remedies again.
Lumpy jaw in cattle can usually
good health otherwise. and the reme-
dies are eiven when tho disease Arst
makes its appearance.
Give the affected animal one dram
Of iodide Of potassium EACH morn
ing and night for three weeks In bran
mash.
In case the eyes begin to run wat.
er too much, stop this treatment for
three or four days, then begin the
remedy again.
Rub the lump once every week
with the following mixture: One
dram biniodide Of mercury: one
ounce Of lard, we'll mixed together.
Keep this treatment up for at
least three months, and the lump
will go away by degrees.
Should the lump. however, become
an open sore, put a small amount Of
powdered bichloride of mercury on
the sore every three days.
This is intended to dissolve the
core Of the lump, and to materially
help in the curing process.
Actinomycosis is known by several
names, such as lumpy Jaw, big jaw,
wooden tongue. etc. is chronic In
fectious disease. recognized by the
peculiar tumors In various parts of
the body, particularly in the head,
and due to the specific action Of a
certain fungus, which Is called acti-
nomyces. Tlis fungus occurs In the
tissues in the shape of rosettes. and
on that account has been called the
ray fungus"
Thus lumpy jaw Is not transmitted
directly from one animal to another,
but it seems quite plain that this
fungus is carried, into the tissues by
various foods through slight wounds
of the mouth or decayed teeth. This
ray fungus is also found on grasses,
on spears Of oats, etc.-Home and
