To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
8 M. St. Bell placed two sound horses by a glandered horse, drinking out of the same pail, and eating out of the same manger. One of the sound horses ^yas six years old, and just taken from grass ; the other nine years old, and taken from regu- lar work. The first showed evident signs of glanders at the expiration of thirty-four days ; it fully declared itself in the second at the end of six weeks." John Gamgee, Professor in the Edinburgh Veterinary College, says : "Horses undoubtedly affected ...with this dreadful malady should be destroyed as soon as the disease is satisfactorily diag- nosed. Various mineral tonics, have been vaunted as specifics, but we cannot conceive on what principle animals should be allowed to live, endangering the life of those around them with no benefit to themselves. " A glandered horse may contaminate the air of a stable to such a degree, that horses breathing the same air may become infected with the disease, although the infected may never come in contact with the infecting horse.
