. The diseases of the genital organs of domestic animals. Veterinary medicine. 4IO Diseases of the Genital Organs clinically.

One of the outstandingly dangerous fads in sterility of cattle is the massaging of the ovaries and uterus per rectum, the rupturing of cysts, and the dislodg- ment of corpora lutea—a massaging and crushing program.
