Elementary lectures on veterinary science, for agricultural students, farmers, and stockkeepers ... those exhibited in your case, but yours may have othersaccompanying these, which can only be detected by the professionaleye. Dont waste time, money, and, perhaps, the animal as well, bydelay in such a case, but send at once for your veterinary attendant,and, in the meantime, do as much to relieve the animal as possible,such as putting it in an airy box, clothing well, bandging the legs,etc. This of itself will often, both in the case of horses and cattle,set them right, and the temperature will come down 2° or 3° bysimply putting them alone in a loose box. Animals, as a rule, whenailing in the fields, get away by themselves in a quiet corner. Followtheir example; but whatever you do, do not start and tamper withquack medicines, of the composition of which you know nothing,and which may be exactly the reverse of what is required. Try andfind out which way Nature is working, and then do what you can toassist her. If you fail in this, send for your professional veterinaryadviser. PL,.
