Some time ago the attention of H.
Branton, V. S„ Leamington, was
called to the disease known as horse
chohnet, by one of the eminent veteri
nary surgeous in the eastern part of
the Produce, and since that time has
attended to a score of cases, and. has
been remarkably successful. The di
signals of the case brought to his not
ice, is that the disease is caused purely
and simply by the common pest along
the lake shore known as "June bugs.'
His eea.sons are, that the stomach of
the diseased and dead animals contain
large quantities of the insects; that
