It is such an infectious disease that nearly all horses contract it when - c�ilts, and usually remain immune to future exposures. The cause is a very small organism or germ. ss•hith enters the system when e healthy. colt comes in contact with diseased one, or when fed and watered in infected vessels. The seat of trouble is largely restricted to the respiratory organs. The animal eats little, and does not care to take match exercise. ,a little watery dist!hari;e frequently appears front the eyes, and about the same time a watery discharge from the nostrils, which soon be• names thicker and yellower in col- or. Usually the glands between they lower jawbones become enlarged and undergo suppuration, with a rupture of them and free discharge of pus. When no complications oc- cur. the disease usually runs its course in two weeks. A laxative diet, with something green, if pos- sible, should be given, and the colt placed in clean, airy and comfort- able gaarte•rs,-but not in a draft, Farm and Garden.
