_Technique._ The weakened virus (1st “vaccin”) is sold in tubes holding enough for 100, 200, or 300 sheep. Of this ⅛ cc. is injected subcutem on the inner side of the thigh of the mature sheep, and 12 or 15 days later a similar dose of the stronger preparation (“2d vaccin”). For the ox or horse double the amount (¼th cc.) is used, being injected behind the shoulder, and on the side of the neck in the respective animals. The dose is graduated in the different subjects according to the size and age, yet a considerable latitude is permissible. The syringe must be disinfected before and after inoculations by a 5 per cent. solution of carbolic acid, or by boiling, and the nozzle should be dipped in strong carbolic acid immediately before and after each insertion. This will greatly obviate infection of the liquid used, and of the wound by any virulent germs lodged on the surface of the skin. The liquid to be injected should be used as soon as possible after preparation, and if kept should be in a dark cold place, and if the tube is once opened the whole of its contents should be used the same day,—never kept over. The second, stronger preparation should never be used until the system has been prepared for it by the use of the first. _By the Soluble Toxins in Sterile Solution._ In 1884, in an outbreak of anthrax in Skaneateles, N. Y., I drew blood from an anthrax cow, subjected it to 212° F. for 30 minutes, dissolved out the soluble toxins in boiled water, and injected the product subcutem, in the dose of 2 to 4cc. according to size, into every apparently healthy member of the herd, excepting one, which was left as a check. The check animal died of anthrax while all of the others escaped. Since that time I have personally used it in every herd where opportunity offered, and with equally good results. In an outbreak near Elmira, Dr. Moore adopted it in a large dairy herd, and the disease was suddenly arrested. In several experimental cases (one cow and 2 Guinea pigs) at the N. Y. S. V. College, the outcome was not so satisfactory and in a herd in Oneida Co., N. Y., it is said to have failed to check the disease.
