catarrhal fever, of an epizootic charac-
ter, and :is transmitted through Itshe atmoe-
phere 'ey some unknown canae: ., One of
the VAeories, started by the aoruants, and
of. the discherge from the affected horses,
-41 that it is produced by a epecies of
fungus of the yeast plant tribe, which,
floating'in the atmosphere, comes in con-
tact -,ivith matter in the lungs of the
horse, which causal, a fermentation to
take place, thus producing the fever and
other synaptonas connected with the dis-
ease. That it is contagious to a certain
extent there is- no reason to donbt, as
horses standing together in a stable gen-
erally give it to their next neighbor, no
doubt by inhaling the tntiated air from
the affected horse. But that hones take
it when at pasture where there are no af-
fected horses near them we hiave abun-
dant evidence every day, proving con-
clusively the germs of it must be in the
atmosphere. The eymptoms are, at first,
accelerated breathing, soee throat, a hack -
hie cough (that when bad shakes the ani-
iall' thirfally, cansing them to stamp with
their fore feet). watery eyes, heaving at
the flanks, cold extremities , and fever,
the pulse going as high as 60 or 75 beats
per minute with a free discharge of mat-
ter from the nostrils, which is white at
first, but generally changes to yellow in
a day or two.
The disease entirely unfits horses for
any kind of work. When cauied to
e'er themselves in any way, it brings on
stop, and in some cases they will stagger
ti)
a fit f coughing which causes them to
and fall. Exertion is apt to bring on inflam-
mation of the lungs, and nearly, if not
all, the fatal cases that have- occurred
have been brought on by exerting the
horses in some way, until they beesune
heated, and nearly all the bad casee can
be traced to a violent drive or hard day's
-work, when the disease was coming on.
As nearly every horse in the country is
likely to have the disease in some form,
it becomes a questio of considerable im-
portance to the owne s how they can be i
most easily got over it.
The treatment is neither cbmplicated
nor expensive, consisting of blanketing,
cooked food ' and saline medicines,
&e., which ought to be commenced,'when-
ever the horses are seen to be ailing.
As thc work that is got out of them be-
fore they becotne so bad that they can-
not work, iselearly bought by the eetra,
time they are laid up after, if worked
until they can work no longer. i
There is a marked difference in the
severity with which the disease attacks
different horses, which can only be ac-
counted for by their surroundings,—the
-air the 'horse breathes, whether pure or
foul, his food, his work, pr the peculiar
state of his body, at the time of the at-
tack. It aPPears to be very easy on
young herses that have had. distemper

by which those answers should be ar-

who were older than thenieelves, to show
