Take a sheet, and having it held by two men, sustain the everted womb and slowly raise it to the level of the vulva. Sponge clean with cold water, and finally it may be sponged over with laudanum or with a weak solution of car- bolic acid (i dram to t quart of water). The closed fist having been greased with vaseline may now be planted in the rounded part of the largest horn and. pushed so as to turn it back within itself and carry it on through the vagina, the other hand being used meanwhile to as- sist in pushing the different masses in succession within the lips of the vagina. If the straining cannot be stopped by pinching the back, it may be checked by giving two ounces of laudanum or one and one-half ounces of chloral hydrate. Fifteen to twenty minutes are usually sufficient to cause the return of the womb, provided straining is prevented by pinch- ing the back or otherwise. of the womb is the next point, and this is most easily accomplished by the means of a rope truss. Take two ropes one inch in diameter and eighteen feet long, and double each of them. Lay them so that one bend lies above the other about eight inches, the double ends extending in opposite directions. Twist each end of the one rope twice about the other so as to form an opening when drawn tight. Tie a strap or rope or use a horse collar around the neck, and a surcingle about the body. Place the rope truss on the animal so that the opening left in the rope will surround the vulva, the two ascending ropes on the right and left of the tail, and the ones down inside the thighs, one on each side of the u
