THE CURE OF MAMMITIS.
Mammitis, an inflammation of cows udders (causing ! a form of diphtheria in human . beings), which threatens to overwhelm th« dairy herds of New Zealand, has been successfully' attacked by a German specialist by injections. Tho disease germs gain ad- . mission through tho milk canals, and tho Gorman therefore attacked thoni along the same channels. He first thoroughly milked the uddor, and then /cleansed it with warm soap-suds and a 3-per-cent. solution of creolin; After the udder had dried, injections were made into the milk cisterns with/ , solutions containing: 5 per cent, creolin or' , camphorated oil. The treatment was re- , peatcd'three times daily, and in noarly all : cases brought about prompt improvement.
