The receipts alluded to in the previous pages are as follows:
No. 1. For young pups up to six months old. Of Epsom salts, take two ounces; of water, one quart. Mix well, and keep close corked.
No. 2. Eight ounces of Saturated Solution of Epsom salts, in water; thirty drops Sulphuric Acid. Mix well, and cork close.
Antimony is preferable, when there is fever. It is an antiphlogistic. Ipecacuanha, when there is much debility. The last also affects the lungs, and is more efficient in removing cold.
Half an ounce of salts is a fair dose for a dog from nine months to any age. No. 2 is particularly recommended, whenever an early action is required. It is essentially short, sharp and decisive.
