Enzootic cirrhosis of the liver of the bovine: A plant intoxication
induced by ingestion of Senecio aquaticus Hunds. and S. jacobaea Lin.
[trans. title], H. JALVING (Tijdschr. Diergeneesk., 57 (1980), No. 5 pp. 328-342,
figs. 6; Ger., Eng., Fr. abs., pp. 341, 342).-This is an account of the condition
produced by the ingestion of S. aquaticus and S. jacobaea, which grow quite
commonly in pastures in the Netherlands. Incipient cirrhosis of the liver was
found by the author in four healthy calves that were given a post-mortem
examination from 84 to 114 days after having fed on Senecio.
Eimeria ziirnii (Rivolta, 1878) as the cause of bovine coccidiosis in
Brazil [trans. title], A. M. PENHA (Rev. Soc. Paul. Med. Vet., 1 (1929), No. 1,
pp. 2-4, pls. 2; Eng. abs., p. 4).-This is the first published report of a case of
bovine coccidiosis observed in Brazil, where it is commonly known as red
diarrhea.
Some experiments on the treatment of tick-infested cattle with arsenical
dipping fluids, J. LEGG and J. L. FOaAN (Roy. Soc. Queensland Proc., 41 (1929),
No. 7, pp. 83-120).-This is a report of dipping experiments with solutions of
sodium arsenite for control of the cattle tick under field conditions in Queensland.
The tick was found to be most resistant to treatment with arsenical dipping
fluids during the last three or four days of its parasitic life.
Paratyphoid dysentery in lambs again, I. . ENEWSOM and F. CROSS (Jour.
Amer. Vet. Med. Assoc., 76 (1930), No. 1, pp. 91, 92).-Since the earlier report of
studies of the outbreak of paratyphoid dysentery in feeder lambs by the
Colorado Experiment Station involving 30,000 animals with a loss of 6.2 per
cent (E. S. R., 53, p. 179; 54, p. 73), the repeated attempts by the authors
made to isolate Salmonella aertrycke, the causative organism, from affected
lambs have failed. During an outbreak of paratyphoid dysentery in lambs
received from Texas in the fall of 1929, however, the organism was again
isolated from two, the details of the findings being here reported. A railroad
journey and difficulty in feeding appeared to be predisposing causes. The blood
serum of recovered lambs agglutinated the strain isolated as well as the one
from the previous outbreak.
A taxonomic study of Pseudomonas suis isolated from croupous pneumonia
in swine, G. M. WOODS (Philippine Jour. Sci., 41 (1930), No. 2, pp.
181-213, pls. 6, figs. 6).-A report of a taxonomic study of a microorganism
isolated by W. H. Boynton from pneumonic lesions of hogs in the Philippine
Islands. The name P. suis n. sp. is proposed for this organism, it not having
been described previously. It is highly pathogenic for rabbits, guinea pigs,
and mice, slightly so for pigeons, and very slightly pathogenic for rats.
Preliminary report on the relation of Bact. abortus Bang to fistulae,
poll-evil, and other suppurations of horses, C. P. FITCI, A. L. DELEZ, and
W. L. BOYD (Jour. Amer. Vet. Med. Assoc., 76 (1930), No. 1, pp. 17-24).-This: is
a contribution from the Minnesota Experiment Station in which, following a review
of the literature, the authors report upon investigations conducted. Details
of the work are given in tables on (1) pyogenic localization of Bang infection
in horses as reported by Rinjard and Hilger (E. S. R., 61, p. 472), (2) the
results of examinations of specimens from 46 cases of fistulas and poll-evil,
and (3) the results of agglutination test with Bacterium abortus antigen of
blood serum from 48 normal horses.
The findings in this preliminary study indicate that B. abortus is associated
rather closely with poll-evil and fistulas of horses. In examinations made of
specimens of blood and pus in cases of fistulas and poll-evil occurring in the
