POISONING BY SAVIN.

The tops of the juniperus sabina when powdered and given to dogs produce

violent colic, vomiting, bloody fæces and urine, spasms, paralysis, and

death, with lesions of gastro-intestinal and uro-genital inflammation.

In cattle and sheep they caused tympany, anorexia, colic, hyperthermia,

and constipation followed by a bloody diarrhœa. Horses took 4, 8 and

even 12 ozs. twice daily for eight days without any ill effect (Sick).

_Treatment._ Evacuate the stomach and give demulcents.
