The same remarks apply to rabies, scarlet fever, small pox, etc.; so that the virus of Texas fever produces that disease and no other. The agents through which the virus is most readily concocted are animal emanations, or secretions, particularly the effluvia arising from the excretions of infected animals, and that arising from the carcasses of those that have died of the complaint. Hence, all that succumb to the same should be buried or burned.

Hence, all that succumb to the same should be buried or burned. When a large number of animals are crowded together, and the disease makes its appearance, the looation may be designated as the center of infection. In that event they need more space, and must have it, or the disease will run riot among them; yet the cordon sanataire must be drawn around them, for, if fresh cattle come within breathing distance, the chances are that the malady will spread. Treatment.—In regard to the treatment of this malady I have but little to offer. Medicine has but little control over diseases of this character, yet I should recommend isolation, pure air, and a free use of chlorate of potass, hyposulphite of soda, sulphate of iron, and ginger. Take of No. 64. Powdered chlorate of potass 3 oz Powdered hyposulphite of soda 4 oz. Powdered sulphate of iron 2 oz. Powdered ginger 7 oz. Mix. • Dose, one ounce, morning and evening; to be mixed each time in half a pint of flaxseed Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Dadd, George H. , b. 1813.
