. Breeder and sportsman. Horses. 12 ©he gveeftev mtb Qpcvtzntah [OOTOBEK 29, 1904 Glanders or Farcy. Glanders and Farcy are two commonly naed expression, to one and trie , although they ongmally designated two different complaints. This malady attacks the horse, and is in- ocolable and contagions, and is caused by the bacteria mallici, which can be traced in the morbid tissoe, and cultivated out of it. Glanders is especially the term for the disease in the mucons membranes belonging to the respiratory organs and their lvmphatic glands. Farcy means the same disease, located in the skin and its glands. Svmptoms-Both forms of the disease may have a chronic course, or an acute one, and both forms may either develop separately or conjointly. It is, therefore, advisable to describe them seriatim. The first suspicious symptom is a dis- charge from one noBtril. It is, however, not always limited to a single nostril; there may be exceptions when it occurs in both. The discharge is not copious, and sometimes almost disappears. Very often blood is mixed with nasal slime. The lymphatic gland of the under jaw, correipondoning to the affected nostril, becomes enlarged and does not suppurate, is very seldom painful when pressed with the hand, and becomes at- tached to the jaw; on the mucous mem- branes of the nose, especially on the sep tnm, which separates the nostrils, nodu- les and ulcers can be seen. The Modules may vary at the beginning from the Bize of a millet seed to that of a pea, of a yellowish color, and afterwards turn to ulcers. The different ulcers may join, and then extend in growth considerably. Sometimes the ulcers heal up, and a white scar can be observed. These symptoms are specific, and warrant the diagnosiB| for glanders under all circumstances. The absence of one of the symptoms still leaves the case suspicious, and should cause the isolation of the animal. Other symptoms not characteristic of the disease may set in; for instance
