DISEASES OF SWINE

CAUSE, SYMPTOMS AND TREATMENT

LOCATION OF PARTS OF SWINE

PREFACE This chapter on diseases of swine has been written with the purpose of placing in the hands of Students and the Veterinary Profession, a book of practical worth; hence, all unnecessary technical language or terms have been eliminated and only such language used as all may read and understand.

The treatment recommended in each disease is one I have used and found efficient in my many years of practice as a Veterinary Surgeon.

If my readers will study the following chapter carefully, they will save much unnecessary loss to the swine industry and be of great value to the community in which they reside.

HOG REGULATOR AND TONIC.

Nux Vomica, one pound; Hardwood Charcoal, two pounds; Sulphur, two pounds; Common Salt, three pounds; Sulphide of Antimony, one and one-half pounds; Glauber Salts, two pounds; Bicarbonate of Soda, four pounds; Hyposulphite of Soda, four pounds; Nitrate of Potash, one pound; Quassia, one-half pound; Gentian Root, one pound; Iron Sulphate, one pound; pulverize and mix well.

To every one hundred pounds of hog weight, give one tablespoonful in feed or swill once or twice daily. For hogs weighing two hundred pounds, the dose would be two tablespoonfuls; for a hog weighing fifty pounds, one-half tablespoonful.

Hogs, like other animals, require tonics, bowel regulators and worm expellers. For these purposes, I have prescribed under a number of the diseases of hogs, which I cover in this chapter, the above general tonic and regulator which I have used in my personal practice with marked success, especially serving the purpose of aiding hogs in the convalescence from debilitating diseases and in their recovery from a general run-down condition.
