This citizen had charged half water rates for the priviâ€" lege of using a street tap. Mr. Citizen, howevr, did not use the tap, but preferâ€" red to use a spring nearer his home. When he received the: water bill he protested by letter. Attached to the letter was a bill made out for the same amount charging the town with some gas and oil. The writer‘s argument being that the town not reâ€" ceiving the gas and oil naturally would not pay the bill, and he not getting any water would naturally not pay the waâ€" ter bill. The letter winds up by stating that one account offâ€"set the otherâ€"or lwords to that effect."

Dunn, V.S., of New Liskeard, Deals with Disease Causing Much Worry to Farmers in Temiskaming Area. Special Investigations Now Under Way to Determine Causes and Means of Prevention. Occurâ€" rence, Symptoms and Treatment Referred to by Dr. Dunn. On several recent occasions The Adâ€" vance has made reference to the form of poisoning from which many horses in the Temiskaming area have died in the past year or two. This is generally referred to as alsike poiâ€" soning, but there is question as to whether the term is a proper one. A week or two ago The Advance pubâ€"| lished an article in which some farâ€" mers expressed the belief that the poi-‘ soning was due to the horses eating a | weed often found on alsike clover land. ‘ Dr. Dunn is amofig those who question | the propriety of calling the disease "alsike poisoning." In any event the‘ matter is of very vital importance to . all farmers and settlers in this Northl Land, alsike clover being so important i crop here. ‘ en se 10 ons mm mm â€"_â€"â€"â€"-._â€"_â€"â€"â€"â€"_â€"â€"__-..â€"â€"_-â€"â€"â€"- On one of his visits to Timmins Dr. (3 Dunn, V.S., of New Liskeard, kindly volunteered to give The Advance an C article on the matter. Herewith, The ,| Advance has much pleasure in presentâ€" € ing the thoughtful article by Dr. Dunn.| While more or less technical in its ] language, Dr. Dunn‘s article covers the | case very completely to the present. \1 } Dr. Dunn writes:â€" Cirrhosis Liver: Hypertrophic Cirrhosis Liver: (enâ€" larged fibrinous liver). (Alsike Clover Poisoning), not official The wrter does not pretend or atâ€" tempt to write an article on the above as an authority but to correct some wromng opinions and also to let the horse owners of the district know what to look for and what is being done upâ€"toâ€"date in reference to the above, also to make it more clear in the folâ€" lowing:â€" OCCURRENCE â€" This disease Or condition has only been recorded in Ssouth West Oregon, U.SA., at the American Veterinary Medical Assocâ€" iation in 1925. The condition in that State was due to parasitic infection but the recearch work was not comâ€" pleted thoroughly enough to prove this. Inquiries from different parts of the Continent, yvet we are unable to get any information to assist and apparâ€" ently this condition is only common or prevalent in the District of Temiskaâ€" ming. ANATOMY:â€"The liver is a solid situated in the abdomen extending from the right, through the epigastric, to the left region It is the largest secâ€" reting gland in the body, weighing from twelve to fifteen pounds, and in shape is very irregularly elliptical thick in the centre, gradually thinning at the border, and presenting numerâ€" ous clefts; it has two surfaces and a cireumstances. . Being suspended from the diaphragm in a direction sloping downwards from right to left. It is suspended by the following ligaments, Broad, Coronary, right and left laterâ€" als. The liver in this normal condition is a cool brown colour. In an animal that has died of hemorrhage, it is a bleached yellowish grey, from genâ€" eral congestion. The liver is supplied with nutritive blood by the hepatic arâ€" tery, a branch of the coeliac axis. The subkstance of the liver consists of serous coat and thin fibrous membrane and glandular structure, Hepatic substance and hepatic ducts. PHYSIOLOGY:â€"In considering the function of the liver, it is necessary to bear in mind its peculiar bloodâ€"supply. Most glands of the body which are called upon to produce secretion are furnished only with arterial blood for the purpose, but the liver is an exâ€" ception to this rule} the entire venous blood returning from the splanchnic area, viz: the bowels, stomach, spleen, pancreas, etc., constitutes the material with which the liver is flooded. Such a mixture of blood derived from a p€â€" culiar and considerable area must be GOLDFIELD DRUG CO. LTD THE ROYAL STUDIO L. A.

The source of urea is the proteid constiâ€" tuent of the food, which in the proâ€" cess of disintegration yieids amidoâ€" acids such as leucine and tyrosine. These substances may be formed in the intestinal canal as the result of panâ€" creatic digestion, or they may be formâ€" ed in the living cell as the result of the breaking down of proteid. Under any cirecumstances the leucine undergoes a series of oxidative changes, mainly in the liver, resulting in the formation of urea which is passed on to the kidâ€" neys for excretion.. The â€" numerous and complicated| changes produced by the liver may regulates the supply of sugar to the| thus be summerized; it forms bile.{ system, and stores up as glycogen what is not required. It guards the systemic circulation against the introduction of certain nitrogenous poisons, such as ammonia, by transforming them into urea, and against other poisons of proâ€"| teid origin by converting them int;oi| harmless products, by conjugation withi alkaline sulphates. ] SYMPTOMS:â€"There must at some, time in the course of the disease be a | jaundice shown by the yellow mucous% membrane of the eye and lips.

At this stage, visible mucous membrane will be a dark red colour and saliva will run quite freely from the mouth. Stiffness of gait resembling partial paralysis.

This is when we get a meningitis or inflamâ€" mation of the covering â€"of the brain. This is often misleading as it has a tendency to make the average owner think his animal has brain fever. This is due to the poisons in the blood causâ€" ing the ccngestion of the above named ‘t,own must be prepared to relieve the | situation as soon as possible. Two men were appointed to make a canvass of the town to find where accommodation could be had. Four hundred new houses will be under construction shortly but SUDBURY SUFFERING NOW FROM SHORTAGE OF HOUSES Iéven with that number added someâ€" thing further must be done and another meeting was called when it is hoped ldefinite plans can be put before the | meeting. CAUSES:â€"The cause of this conâ€" dition or disease has not been as yet proven. There are the advocates who claim that it is alsike poisoning. This has yet to be proven. There is no doubt that it is a disease brought on by the food or some digestive disturâ€" bances. PREVENTION :â€"As _A suggestion and taking for granted that the hay and the Alsike Clover is responsible for this condition, use some other mixture and do not use such concentrated or continuous feeding of Alsike, such as mixing with straw, and if the animals do not care for the straw, procure soms® good feeding molasses and dilute with equal parts water and sprinkle over the straw, also use a certain amount of grain. From data gathered, it is found that the owner or farmer who feeds a good grain ration and not too heavy feeding on hay, does not have any or has very little of this trouble with his horses. The Alsike poisoning or the blisterâ€" ing of the nose or leg has little or no connection with the condition of: the liver. TREATMENT:â€"Ceberal form cases: keep perfectly quiet as other than hyâ€" pcdermic treatment could not be given as the animal is rather dangerous to try to d@rench and if attempted to drench has a slight paralysis of the throat and cannot swallow. . These, symptoms, if given a hypodermic to quiet the nerves usually subside and will respond to treatment which would consist of medicines to act on the liver. and as general stimulant to the deâ€" pressed nerves in order to assist the animal body to cleanse the. system of of the poison to the inactivity of the (liver. Also some medicine that could be given in the food or water continuâ€" 'ally for some time. The treatment is not a specific or a cureâ€"all but those cases where the owner detects the conâ€" ditions early and will continue the treatment for some time, usually get 'satisfactory results. The treatment ', must be persistent. wWHAT NOT TO DO:â€"It has been found out by the treatment of hunâ€"| dreds of cases that you cannot, withâ€" out risk give purgatives, such as, Aloes or Linseed Oil owing to the paralytic ecndition of the bowel that would give a superpurgation causing death. sYNOPSIS AND GENERAL REâ€" MARKS:â€"The writer‘s first experience of this condition was with Ceberal or Brain conditions and after having difficulties with one or two cases and being of an enquiring mind, made auâ€" topsies on these cases which succumbed to the disease and found the following: Livers weighing from 35 to 65 pounds‘ I V\ w4 and of a greyish green colour, very firm and cutting like cutting through hard cartilage (gristle).

Agricultural College, Iowa, U.S.A. | After â€" considerable correspondence and interviews by the writer and the Iccal representatives of the Dept. of Agriculture did succeed in having Dr. schofield, of Sweet Clover poisoning fame, detailed by the Prov. Dept. of Agriculture and the Ontario Veterinary College to lock over the district during the past summer in order to gather cther data, and Dr. Schofield‘s report resulted in the Prov. Dept. of Agricuiâ€" ture taking action and authorizing the Ontario Veterinary College to do reâ€" search work on this particular condiâ€" tion, and there have been two horses shipped from this district and a carâ€" Icad of hay. Here I wish to mention that Mr. Wm. Newton had contributed one horse showing symptoms of this condition and by doing so has assisted very much in the beginning of this reâ€" search. In reference to the article in the New Liskeard Speaker of February 7th, the research work will not give any particâ€" ular reports for at least twelve months, perhaps more. It is quite evident that this condition cannot be detected with a few months experimental work.
