The large branches sub-divide within the gland tissue. The venous circulation is more complex than the blood is collected from the capillaries by from 14 to 17large veins which empty into the mammary vein runningparallel with the mammary artery at the top of the mammary vein is divided into two parts which encirclethe top of the udder and connect in front and behind like a. Fig. 36. Circulation To and From the Udder. The broken lines represent the arteries which carry blood contain-ing the nutritive material to the udder where it is manufactured intomilk. The heavy black lines represent the veins which carry the bloodback to the heart. Note that there is but one route from the heart tothe udder, whereas there are two routes from the udder to the v., milk vein; M. W., milk well.

One route leads out toto the rear of the udder, then up to the region of the hips,and thence to the vena cava and the heart, the veins alongthe route being parallel to the arteries through which theblood came, and being similarly named. The other route isalready familiar, leading out in front of the udder through thelarge subcutaneous abdominal veins (milk-veins) which pass 136 Types and Ma
