_Treatment_ does not differ from that advised for the horse except in the greater safety of purgatives which must in this case be saline (Epsom or glauber salts one to two pounds), and in the greater ease with which local treatment can be applied owing to the shortness of the soft palate. When abscess forms it must be encouraged by poulticing and opened with the knife or lancet as soon as it points. LARYNGITIS IN SHEEP. Infrequency. Causes, damp lands, storms, close buildings, clipping. Symptoms, cough, sneezing, discharge, snuffling, oral breathing, tender throat. Treatment, ventilation, warm water vapor, sulphur dioxide, salines. Sore throat is fortunately even more rare than in the larger ruminants. It occurs chiefly where this animal, constituted to feed on the dainty grasses of the dry mountain side, is kept on cold, marshy ground and exposed to frequent cold, wet blasts. Sheep suffer also from hot, close, filthy buildings in winter, and from unseasonable clipping. The _symptoms_ are frequent coughing and sneezing, running from the nose, working of the jaws, and breathing through the open mouth as being easier than through the plugged nostrils. The larynx is tender and may be swollen. _Treatment_ is usually confined to ventilation and cleansing of the fold, frequent fumigations with water vapor from the spout of a boiling kettle, and with sulphur fumes, and giving tepid farinaceous gruels or mashes containing sulphate of soda in the daily proportion of two pounds to each hundred head of sheep. Sal ammoniac may be given in food or drinking water. LARYNGITIS IN PIG. Frequency. Causes, wet, cold pens, exposure, withholding liquids. Symptoms, prostration, dullness, cough, fever, swollen throat and neck, dyspnœa, dark mucosa, sloughing of epithelium and epidermis, general petechiæ, fœtid breath, great prostration. Lesions, gangrenous patches on pharynx and fauces, ulcers, infiltrations. Treatment, hygienic, dietetic, emetic, laxative, poultice, bandages, locally, astringent, antiseptic, caustic, tonic. Sore throat is common in some localities when pigs live in herds. _Causes._ Chiefly faulty hygiene. Exposed, cold and wet piggeries, cold blasts for which the pig has an extraordinary aversion, and the deprivation of liquids in warm, dry seasons are frequent causes.
