This subject is taught by lectures and text-books on the diseases of domestic animals, and is illustrated with specimens of morbid anatomy and by observations and practice at the clinics. The latter are held at the veterinary infirmary once a week. The students assist in the operations, and thus obtain a practical knowledge of the subject. Dissections and postmortems are made as cases present themselves. Text-books : Diseases of Horses and Cattle, by D. McIntosh, and Williams''s Practice of Veterinary Medicine and Surgery.
