Application of causties.
If the abscess has already opened
giving vent to a quantity III purulenl
matter, and the pipes and tubes lead
ing from the opening are found to be
extensive and surrounded with thicE
fungoid membranes, there is consider
able danger that the internal ligamentA
or even some Of the bones have be-
come affected, in which case the con-
ditiOn has assumed a serious aspect.
Or, on tine other hand. IL the abscess
has existed for some time without a
rupture, its contents will frequently
be found to consist Of dried purulent
matter, firm and dense, and the walls
surrounding the mass will be found
greatly thickened. In such a case the
application of caustics will cause
sloughing of all of the unhealthy It's
sue, and will also stimulate a rapid
increase Of healthy material to replace
that destroyed in the course of the de-
velopment and treatment of the dis
ease. Threads or cords soaked in gum
arabic solution and rolled in powdered
corrosive sublimate may be introduced
into the canal and allowed to remain.
The skin on all parts of the shoulder
and leg beneath the fistula should be
carefully creased with lard or oil as
this will prevent the discharge that
comes from the opening after the caus-
tic is introduced from irritating or
blistering the skin over which u flows

of a seton. If the pipes become estab-
lished in the deep tissues beneath the
shoulder blade or among the spines OF
the vertebral column, it will often be
found impossible TO provide proper
drainage for the abscess from below,
and treatment must consist Of causIiC
solutions carefully injected into ali
parts Of the suppurating sinuses. A

Majority Of Cases Durable.


Although the successful treatment OF
fistulas requires time and patience, the
majority OF cases are durable. The
sinuses must be opened at their lowest
extremity and kept open. Caustic ap-
plications must be thoroughly used
once or twice, after which mild as
tringent antiseptic washes should be
persistentiy used until a cure is
reached.
It sometimes happens that the ero-
sions have burrowed so deeply or in
such q direction that the opening of a
drainage passage becomes impracti-
cable. In other cases the bones may
be attacked in some inaccessible loca-
ton. or the joints may be affected, and
in these cases il is often best TO de-
stroy the horse at once
The temperance of the fstula az
ter it has apparently healed IS not IN
common. The secondary attack in
these cases is seldom serious. The
lesion should be carefully cleaned and
afterwards injected with solution of
zinc sulphate, 20 grains TO the ounce
Of water, every second or third day
until a cure is effected.
In fistuia of the foot there is the
same tendency toward the burrowing
OF pus downward to lower structures,
or in some cases upward toward the
cOronet. Prior 10 the development Of
QuittOr there is always swelling at
the eOronet. accompanied with heat
and pain. Every effort should now be
made TO prevent the formation OF an
abscess at the point of injury. Wounds
caused by nails, gravel, or any other
foreign body which may have lodged
in the sole of the foot should be opened
at once from below, so as TO allow free
exit to all purulent discharges. Should
the injury have occurred directly TO
the coronet the application of cold TO
mentations may prove efficient in pre-
venting the formation of an abSeess.
Bacterial vaccines composed OF sew
eral strains of the organisms usually
found in these pustular infections of
the horse are well adapted to the treat
ment of these diseases. The vaccine
is administered simultaneously by
means of a syringe. but the quantity
of the vaccine to be injected and the
number of doses to be used should be
left to the judgment of a competent
veterinarian.

Weigh Purchases to
Make Sure of Getting
Full Value For Money

Harry ID. Reel, city sealer of weights
and measures, in a statement to-day,
urged the public to watch carefully all
purchases and see that dealers give full
weight as provided by law.
Pointing to the high cost of potatoes,
Inspector Reel declared that consumers
should insist on getting full weight
His statement follows, in part:
Potatoes at the present price are
getting to be a luxury, and my advice
to the consumer is to see that they
receive weight Under the law a quar-
ter peck must weigh 81 pounds, halt
peck must weigh IN pounds. a peck If.
teen pounds, a half bushel thirty pounds
and bushel sixty pounds.
"Do not be afraid of oeffnding the
dealer by checkig up on your pur'
purchases. as the. dealer himself re-
weighs the goods he receives, and IL hi
becomes offended because some ONT
checks after him then it is very eviden
that he is not doing as he would b'
done by"
