The diseases of live stock and their most efficient remedies; . icine. curative iDfluence on its lining membrane is a more com-mon practice, and attended with much good.

It consists in causing the fluid to rise in eachnostril by atmospheric pressure, and when the one divisionof the nose is thus filled, the liquid passes over, and is seento flow out at the opposite nostril. In this way the liquidmost effectually touches every part of the membrane, and amild solution of sulphate of zinc or copper, and other seda-tive, astringent, or antiseptic lotion, may be brought in con-tact with the suppurating or ulcered surface. The instru-ment which Professor Rey employs for this purpose is drawnat Fig. 14.
