IMG:content-0325.png:[blocks in formation] Anim. Pathol.: Hematuria in cattle, occurring occasionally in sheep. It is of two kinds: (1) Acute, ushered in by a discharge of bloody urine, generally preceded by dysentery, suddenly changing to obstinate costivene immediately before the red-water appears. There is laborious breathing, with every indication of fever. The disease rapidly runs its course, and the beast soon succumbs. (2) Chronic, the more prevalent form. The urine is brown or yellowish-brown, the beast feeds fairly, but ruminates slowly, and after a few days a natural diarrhœa carries of the evil symptoms. Yonatt ( Cattle , ed, 1878, p. 510) considers these two forms e entially different maladies; the first, inflammation of the kidney: the second, inflammation of, or altered secretion from the liver.
