When conditions are favorable and an absolutely secluded pasture can be secured, with shelter from storms, and where civic or state authorities do not take effective measures to stamp out glanders, nor compensate owners for animals killed, mild, chronic and cutaneous cases and occult ones that have reacted to mallein without showing any other symptom, may be subjected to treatment. They should have an open air life, a generous diet, including grain, perfect cleanliness and pure air in the shelter-shed, an antiseptic and tonic medication (sulphites, tonics) may be given, and every three months a new mallein test may be applied. If the individual horse passes two successive tests without reaction, and shows no other indication of glanders, if his general health appears perfect and his condition good, he may be returned to work as a sound animal. With effective measures of extinction in force on the other hand, and indemnity for the slaughtered animal, any such measure would be entirely unwarrantable. Treatment by injecting the serum of immune animal subcutem has given encouraging results. Helman, Semmer and Itzkovitch, Pilavios, Bonome and Vivaldi, Johne, Schindelka, Prieur and others record recoveries in recent cases and there need be no doubt of its value in subjects that are naturally somewhat refractory to the germ. Babes introduced the blood serum of the ox, which is naturally immune, and Prieur speaks with confidence of the treatment of cutaneous glanders in man and certain cases of pulmonary glanders in the horse. TREATMENT IN MAN. The surgical treatment of glanders in man does not differ materially from that given for animals. It is more frequently possible to deal with the local lesion in its early stages and then a thorough cauterization of the infected sore, and a little later the complete excision of the primary nodule, or the limited regional infiltration, the curetting of the adjacent parts and the maintenance of thorough disinfection by irrigation, sponging and compress will often be followed by success. Where such radical measures are inadmissible the infected parts should be excised and curetted as far as safe and the adjacent parts subjected to carbolic injections (1:200). Abscesses should be evacuated, fistulæ slit open, and thorough disinfection applied. For the affected air-passages, iodoform insufflations and antiseptic gases, sprays, and solutions should be freely used.
