PREFACE
In offering this work to the consideration of Students of Veterinary Science, as well as to the Veterinary Profession and others who are interested in the study and advancement of Veterinary Science, I feel it will suffice to say that I have endeavored to the best of my ability to render the matter contained in the following pages of as great practical value as possible, to present in the most plain and concise manner the nature, cause, symptoms and treatment of each disease in the form in which it most frequently occurs.
I wish to express a hope that this work will be favorably welcomed by all into whose hands it may find its way, more particularly by Students of Veterinary Science.

ABCESSES.
Cause.—Bruises and injuries. They are also seen in complication with various other diseases, as Laryngitis, Pharyngitis, Tuberculosis, Lump Jaw, Blood Poison or Pyemia and Septicemia.
Symptoms.—Symptoms will vary according to the nature of the disease or injury. It may not be noticed at first, but upon careful examination swollen lines will be observed running from the point of swelling. In many cases a swelling is noticed which is hot, painful and throbbing, which enlarges rapidly in two or three days. The swelling and heat gradually disappear, but the Abscess continues to grow. The hair falls from the point of swelling and in a short time breaks and discharges pus. The cavity gradually fills up and heals by granulation.
