Cows thus affected do not conceive but are frequently in heat, although sexual desire vanishes as the disease advances. Tuberculosis of the vagina and of the vulva, which is very rare, manifests itself in' the appearance of small yellowish nodules and erosions (Fischer) or tumors as large as peas and ulcers with raised borders. There may also be ol)served a purulent discliarge, hypersensi- tiveness and swelling of the lips of the vulva and enlargement of the perineal lymph glands.

Fischer referred to this form as lupus hyper- tropliicans of cattle. Since the superficial lymphatic glands (Fig. 85) in the pharyngeal and cervical regions become primarily infected and the remaining glands liecome involved in most cases as a resuto of tuberculosis of neighboring organs the determination of in- fection of the former glands is of special importance in the diagnosis of this disease. Large tumors, attaining to or ex- ceeding the size of a man's fist are now and tlien foimd in one or several of the following locations, viz., intermaxillary space, behind the ascending portion of the inferior maxilla in the sub- parotid region, on the side of the neck above the jugular furrow, anterior to the scapula, at the inside of the elbow, in the pre- crural and inguinal regions, in the flank, at the superior border.
