SWINE PLAGUE 53 Two kinds of pneumonia are encountered, namely, lobar and catarrhal or broncho-pneumonia. In the former the vesicular portion of the lung substance is chiefly affected; in the latter the smaller bronchioles are primarily attacked and the alveoli secondarily. In croupous-pneumonia, there is, following the stage of congestion, an emigration of red blood corpuscles, some leucocytes, and an exudate of fibrin into the air spaces. These elements are firmly matted together by the coagulating fibrin, making the diseased lung firm to.

In broncho-pneumonia the catarrhal condition of the smaller air tubes makes them impervious to air. The lung tissue which they supply is gradually emptied of air and assumes the appearance of red flesh, owing to the collapse of the walls of the alveoli and the distended condition of the capillary network. Subse- quently the inflammation extends into the alveoli, which then become distertded with cellular masses. The nature of the lung disease will depend more or less upon the mode of entrance of the virus. If it enters only by way of the air tubes it will appear perhaps as a broncho-pneumonia. If it enters the lung tissue through the circulation we may have more or less.
