| Abstract: | Extract Madam: — We recently treated a goat poisoned by the lily of the valley tree. On Thursday the 30th of December, an adult Angora buck was presented with the following symptoms: projectile vomiting, ataxia, depression, excessive salivation, toxic mucous membranes, weak ruminal movements and a subnormal temperature. The vomiting was spectacular and included numerous leaves of one species of plant. |
