Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Diseases of Swine: Written as a Text Book for the Veterinary Surgeon, Student and Swine Grower Diseases of the pig have not been hitherto adequately represented in veterinary literature as they should have been, especially in this country where the growing of pigs is one of the principal industries, represented by hundreds of thousands of dollars. I have been surprised that some of my professional brethren have not taken up this work, but I suppose that lack of time and opportunity prevented them from so doing. Some ten years ago I was urged by some of my friends to undertake such work, but having so little literature on the subject to cull from, I hesitated to do so, but since coming to Illinois I have had ample opportunity of investigating all the diseases of swine. The subjects dealt with are based on science and confirmed by experience, so that the reader will not lose time in reading theories which are not confirmed by facts. There are a few diseases of swine, such as thumps, partial paralysis of the hind quarters and canker of the mouth, which will in the majority of cases prove fatal. These diseases have been thoroughly investigated and the proper remedies discovered, and if administered as set forth in this treatise the majority of the affected pigs will recover. I have, with the assistance of Doctor Burrill, Professor of Bacteriology in the University of Illinois, investigated extensively "hog cholera," and have made considerable headway in treating the disease successfully. These results and treatment will be found in this volume. It also contains as an introduction an article on the health of the pig which will be of great service to the swine breeder. The book contains a number of illustrations which will be helpful to the reader. My hope is that this manual will fill a long felt want to the veterinary surgeon and swine grower.
