HOW TO GIVE A HORSE MEDI-
VI CINE


Medicine may be administered to
animals through the mouth, by in
lection under the skin or into the
blood stream, or in rare cases
through the rectum, ( according to DR..
r. r, Dykstra, professor of veterin-
airy surgery in the agricultural col
1ege.
"The administering of drugs under
the skin or into the blood stream re-
quires the use Of hyp0dermic syr-
inge and a needle" said Doctor Dyks-
ira. drugs administered by this
means must be perfectly soluble, non
Irritating, and in concentrated form.
IF the medicine is injected under
the skin. some place is selected where
the skin is comparatively loosely at
teached to the underlying structures,
as on the side of the neck or the
breast. f'
'If the side of the neck is the pro-
posed point of injection, then it is
preferable to select the side of. the
neck over which the name hangs, be-
cause in case a scar results as an af-
ter effect, it will be hidden.
Previous to making such an in
lection, the site must be cleaned
thoroughly with soap and water and
rinsed off with some reliable anti
septic solution. A per cent water
solution of carbolic acid is effective
1t is advisable to disinfect the in
struments by. placing them in boiling
water or rinsing them in strong an
tiseptic solution.
Drugs injected into the blood
stream possesses the same properties
as those which are injected under the
skin and the same antiseptic precau-
tions must be taken.
"The juglar vein is the one usual
ly selected for making these injec-
tIOnS. Dlu6o that diC ihJOStOu SAshOs
under the skin or in the blood system
are quickly absorbed and produce
rapid action.
"The most common method of adj
ministering drugs to animals is
drenching. Previous to drenching the

President Wilson's patience has been strained to the limit over his failure to receive an answer to his note dispatched six days ago to General Carranza, head of the provisional government Of Mexico, in regard to the Carrizal affair, when a number of American soldiers were killed or captured by CaranZa troops.
