UDDER INFLAMMATION.

, i A REPUTED CURE. » a Writing in "Alochbl fur Landw" aliout odder inflammation) Air. J". Kiegcl states s that he had tried various salves, etc., and t milking ovory h>ir all in vain, tho cows \ losing tho quarter affected. All'. Siege! f says: "Sinoe I. took tho matter up other- j wise I.have hardly any foil- of the disease. 1 Tf it is caused by draught or any other < rails* and not least from noi milking dry, 1 it matters not to me, there is but one j udder inflammation for nie and my treat- ] Tiient. Tho cow is at once placed in a j stall free from draught and a mixture . of camphor spiritus and turpentino is injected (presumably, in tho affected qnnr- | >ter). She is rubbed thoroughly, and' cov- ] erocl with a woollen blanket. Further- i more, o lukewarm, clyster and.a draught ■ of peppermint tea and whisky is given. | The treatment hitherto described is to | he recommended at tho beginning of (he disease. Yet now comes the most import- j nut part. The diseased quarter is vigor- ' ously massaged until either real milk is , obtained or that at least the swelling ho- ; • tomes softer and absolutely nothing more ( cr-mes out of that quarter. This is repeat- i cd after :t few' hours and. if necessary, , more vigorously nnd for a longer time. A ] row. thus treated has always been re- i stored in. ai most, two days, without los- , . ing much milk,' not to mention without : Miy harm."
