The cannula with the connecting tube attached should then be inserted caudad in the oblique cut of the artery (Fig. 5), and the string .? drawn tight so as to hold the cannula in place. The string st should then be tightened to prevent the injection mass from running out where the can- nula is inserted. After stirring the red mass, filling the syringe, and slip- ping the nozzle into the connecting tube the operator should press slowly but continuously on the plunger until that portion of the carotid craniad of the string st is well distended. In a large cat this will not occur until the syringe is nearly or quite empty. When the vessels are full, the can- nula is withdrawn while the string s is tightened. The syringe is washed out, after which the blue mass is well stirred and injected caudad into the external jugular in the same manner as described for the arteries. By making a slit about three inches long in the abdominal wall, a fold of the intestine may be pulled out so that its lumen can be filled with about 200 of 15% formalin. The same amount should be injected into the lungs by inserting the cannula caudad into the ventral wall of the trachea. If the cat is not to be used at once, it may be preserved indefinitely in a jar of five per cent, formaline. The portal system is not injected through the jugular vein. The portal trunk just caudad of where it enters the liver may be found by cutting a piece from the abdominal wall on the right ventral aspect just caudad of the last rib. Fig. 5.
