_Treatment._ _Acute form._ Unless in the very mildest cases unaccompanied by fever, repose is essential. If available, a roomy, clean, dry, and airy loose box should be allowed, care being taken to avoid draughts of cold air and to secure a soft equable temperature neither too hot nor too cold. Blankets should be used and even flannel bandages applied loosely to the legs if the weather is cold, or, if there is any tendency to chills and shivering. The nostrils must be steamed as directed for _coryza_. A piece of sheepskin with the wool turned in may be tied around the throat and up to the ears. In very acute cases a linseed meal poultice or wet pack may be applied to the throat, while in the milder forms, a mustard poultice or a lotion of Spanish flies or other stimulant may be employed. Unless the malady has an epizootic type, with prostration and a weak, rapid pulse, the bowels may be opened by a laxative (3 or 4 drachms, aloes), and the water or gruel the animal daily drinks should contain ½ to 1 ounce nitre. As an expectorant the patient may take salammoniac 1 oz. daily in the drinking water, or this agent may be evaporated from a clean chafing dish every two hours and inhaled. Or he may take carbonate of potash or soda, or iodide of potassium. If the cough is troublesome, half a drachm of Dover’s powder may be given thrice a day or 1 grain chloride of apomorphine every hour. Bromide of potassium or sodium may also be resorted to. Inhalations or spray of sulphurous acid, or vapor of oil of turpentine and insufflations of calomel may benefit as local applications. The diet must be confined to sloppy bran mashes, cut roots, or boiled barley, or oats. Hay should be withheld in the more acute cases until improvement appears. Under treatment such as the above and even without the medicinal part of it, the great majority of cases will do well. In cases attended with high fever with strong full pulse and bright red nasal membrane, the purgatives and diuretics are especially called for, and the former should have their action encouraged by frequent hot water injections. Twenty drop doses of the tincture of aconite repeated four times a day, or ten drops every three hours, will be further useful.
