VACCINE THERAPY.
H. A. Heid,
F.E.C.V.S., D.V.H
Readers of the Journal may remember a case reported in ■ the issue of August, 1912, of a draught mare suffering from multiple sinuses of the quarter and hip, then under treatment by means of bacterial vaccines. In spite of the encouraging results obtained up to the time of recording particulars of the case, doubt was expressed as to whether the mare might ultimately become workably sound. It was decided, however, to persevere with the treatment. It may therefore be .of some interest to relate that without in any way modifying the method of application the mare has completely recovered, and has for some time been doing very useful work. Considering the apparently hopeless nature of the case at the outset, and the fact that for two years it had resisted the application of various other forms of treatment, this result seems worthy of record as a striking example of the efficacy in certain cases of vaccine therapy. . . . . ’
