Everything should be done to preserve the surface circulation, in the way of clothing the body and bandaging the legs, and the patient should be placed in a comfortable airy stable. Congestion of the Lungs results from exposure to cold, over-exertion, breathing a vitiated atmosphere, as a sequela of other maladies, and other causes. It may be known mainly by the excessively laboured respiration, once seen not easily to be forgotten. In such a case administer.

Use every endeavour to restore surface circulation, and secure as much ventilation as possible. Roaring and Wliistling.—These sounds, emitted during the horse's respiration, when of a chronic type, most frequently arise from a paralysed condition of the dilator muscles of the left side of the windpipe ; there are, however, several other causes which will give rise to this defect in respiration. The extent of interference of the passage of air to the lungs varies very much ; hence in some cases the whistling sound can only be detected after submitting the animal to severe exertion, while in others it is loud, and so interferes with the breathing the horse cannot.
