_Regimen._ An antiphlogistic diet will consist in a moderate or very sparing amount of non-stimulating food of easy digestion (wheat bran or oil meal in warm, sloppy mash, carrots, turnips, beets, potatoes, apples, pumpkins; fresh, tender, green grass or in winter a little scalded hay, may be taken as examples). _Ruminants_ should have no food necessitating chewing of the cud; thus the roots, etc., should be pulped or boiled, and hay and even grass must be interdicted until rumination is re-established. When food is absolutely refused for days in succession well-boiled gruels of oatmeal, barley-meal, linseed meal, bran, etc., may be given from a bottle or by injection. _Dogs_ and _cats_ should have only vegetable mush (unbolted flour, barley, or oatmeal) with just enough beef-juice to tempt the animal to eat a little. Milk with an admixture of oxide of magnesia, or even lime water is often at once palatable and cooling. _Drink_ should be pure water, cool, if kept constantly fresh before the animal, but warmed to something less than tepid if supplied only at long intervals, so that the thirsty patient is not tempted to drink to excess and chill himself. _Rest_ in a clean, well-aired building, free from draughts of cold air and with a southern exposure, is desirable, especially in winter. The best temperature is usually sixty degrees to seventy degrees, especially in inflammations in the chest, and extremes of temperature are to be avoided. _Clothing_ will depend on the weather. In warm weather it may be often discarded, while in winter it should always be sufficient to obviate the access of _chill_ and consequent aggravation of the disease. Whenever the atmosphere can be kept warm only at the expense of impurity it is better to secure the comfort of the patient by the requisite clothing than to subject him to impure air. As the extremities are the first to suffer from cold, loose flannel bandages to the limbs are often imperative. _Remedies._ _General bleeding_, a great resort of our fore-fathers, has been long all but discarded from modern practice. Today it is rarely resorted to, except to save from an urgent and extreme danger, as in the plethoric cow merging into parturient apoplexy, or the fat and overdriven horse, gasping for breath and life, in general acute congestion of the lungs. There are other cases of extensive acute and dangerous congestions, especially in a strong, vigorous, and plethoric patient, in which general bleeding in beneficial in warding off threatened death; but sound, discriminating judgment is necessary to its safe employment. When resorted to at all, the blood should be drawn from a large orifice, in a full stream, to secure the desired depressant effect with the smallest loss of blood, and the patient should be kept especially quiet and apart from all excitement which would tend to counteract the sedative action.
