This method of diagnosis should be resorted to in all suspicious cases of skin disease, and before the disease has developed to any great extent. The mite that most commonly causes mange in cattle is the Psoroptes communis var. bovis. It may invade the skin in the different regions of the body, but it is in the regions of the tail and thighs that the first evidence of the mange is noticed.
"Twenty-six large lumps every day of your life, Mr Bovis," says his wife. "No such thing!" exclaims Bovis. "You drop them into your tea, coffee, and whisky yourself, my dear, and I count them." "Nonsense!" laughs Bovis, turning to Pilulus, that they may exchange a glance of mutual amusement at a woman's inaccuracy. But she happened to be right.
It must, however, be borne in mind that the warbles are the larvæ of the oestrus bovis, which is said to be the most beautiful variety of gad-fly. This fly, judging from the objects of its attack, must be particularly choice in its selection of animals upon which to deposit its eggs, as it rarely chooses those poor in flesh, or in an unhealthy condition.
Be this as it may, it is certain that the maggot works its way into the muscular fibre of the back, and depends upon the animal's blood for the nourishment which it receives. The author has been informed, by persons in whom he ought to have confidence, that the free use of the card, during the above-named months, is a specific protection against the attacks of the oestrus bovis.
Old Madam Funchal of Philadelphia was at Congress Hall, with her train, and Mrs. Romeo Pipps Bovis and husband, from Boston. All her friends were round her; that is, the traveling set she was in the habit of meeting; and her spirits rose to the occasion.
Presently he looked up the normal rate of increase, with other data, among herds of bovis domesticus in a wild state, on planets where there are no natural enemies. It wasn't unheard-of for a world to be stocked with useful types of Terran fauna and flora before it was attempted to be colonized. Terran life-forms could play the devil with alien ecological systems very much to humanity's benefit.
Cysticercus bovis Cattle Cysticercus cellulosa Swine and man Cysticercus tennicollis Cattle, sheep and swine Coenurus cerebralis Cattle and sheep Echinococcus polymorphus Cattle, sheep, swine and man The adult tapeworms Taeniae saginata and soleum, of which the Cysticerci bovis and cellulosa are the larvae forms, occur in man.
From this circumstance, probably, has arisen the opinion above-mentioned. These warbles or larvæ of the oestrus bovis so nearly resemble bots in the horse or larvæ oestrus equi that, were it not for their increased size, they might readily be mistaken the one for the other.
Lieutenant Bovis of the French navy, who seventy years ago, after ten years of study in Tahiti, wrote his conclusions, said that after him it would be useless to hunt in the memories of the living for anything of the past, for the old men were dead or dying, and those now in middle age did not even speak or understand the old language in which the records were told.
Bovis, a Frenchman, world traveled, having seen perhaps the frescos of Pompeii, and familiar with the histories of old Egypt, India, Greece, Persia, and Rome, knew that Sodom and Gomorrah had their replicas in all times, and that often such conduct as that of the Arioi was associated among ancient or primitive peoples with artistic and interesting manifestations.
