336 THE INDIAN JOURNAL OF VETERINARY SCIENCE AND ANIMAL HUSBANDRY [ I, IV
It is a fact that all cases on the farm were eventually cured by this treatment,
and have remained so now for a period of over six months.
Although the experience gained during this outbreak leads us to assume that
in tartar emetic we have a specific for Bovine Nasal Granuloma, yet there is no
doubt that the method might be improved with advantage. The large number
of injections make the process long and laborious when many animals are concerned.
Also the fact that the drug must be injected intravenously necessitates the
employment of a skilled person for giving each dose.
An increased dose, with shorter intervals, might curtail the period of treatment,
but experiments would be necessary to ascertain what the patients could tolerate
with a reasonable margin of safety.
Unfortunately, lack of material has prevented this point being settled.
My grateful thanks are due to Major G. F. Watkins, R.A.V.C., who has
collaborated with me throughout this outbreak, and to Jemadar Noor Mohd. Khan,
I.A.V.C, who has skilfully given very many injections.
