The symptomatology of this disease may clinically be divided into three well-marked periods: I Primary period. The primary phase commences with the pene- tration of the embryos of the parasite into the body, firstly into the intestine and then into the liver by ascending the bile ducts. This phase occurs during the last months of the year, October, Noveml^er, and December, and is rarely accompanied by alarming symptoms. At this time the sheep appear in good health, the summer being over, and the.
