In fact, this last mentioned treatment should be first, as eradicat- ing the disease from the blood is the only way to render local treatment effective. Further: the discovery of one diseased animal in your herd is very strong circum- stantial evidence that the others are infected. They may only show poor general condition or may appear to be in perfect health, but they should be under strong suspicion and continually watched and frequently examined. Many owners run no risk, but treat the entire herd so as to forestall the disease. THE TREATMENT AND DIRECTIONS FOR ITS APPLICATION. The three preparations named in the following directions, the Anti-Abortion "serum," Antisepto and Disinfectall, are the preparations I have used in this sys- tematic treatment in my practice. They are in use in the hands of hundreds of breed- ers, large and small, throughout the country. Administered as directed, they con- stitute a completely effective treatment. By injecting the Anti-Abortion "serum" in under the skin of the cow, heifer, or bull, with the use of a hypodermic syringe, the germs of this disease in the system of the animal are destroyed. By washing out the sheath of the bull and the vagina of the cow with an antiseptic solution made with Antisepto, the germs that gather in the discharge are entirely removed, and by disinfecting the stalls with Disinfectall, the germs of this disease in the stables are destroyed. DIRECTIONS. Pour the "serum" into a cup and have ready for use. Fill this syringe (Fig. 1). It holds exactly one dose for animals over one year old. Stock under one year and over six months old should receive one-half syringe full, calves from three weeks to six months, one-fourth syringe full, at each injection
