At present it seems that as a rule of practice it is best to dislodge such corpora lutea in order that their inhibitory power may be destroyed and the ovaries caused to resume their function. The veterinarian should always be very careful, when dislodging such a cor- pus luteum, to compress the crater for some minutes and watch carefully for a brief period afterward to see that a new hemorrhage is not established. At the same time due attention should be given to other conditions existing within.

Cystic Degeneration of the Corpus Luteum Probably the commonest disease of the ovary observed in cattle is the cystic degeneration of the corpus luteum. At the same time, although the condition has not been thor- oughly studied, it is quite safe to say that it is one of the most serious types of ovarian infection seen. Cystic de- generation of the corpus luteum occurs very rarely in a.
