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.
