    Ten blood properties-total protein, cholesterol, zinc turbidity test, leucine amino peptidase, alkaline phosphatase, lactate dehydrogenase, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and red and white blood cell counts-were measured in primiparous cows at three different stages near parturition, 260 days of pregnancy, 5 days and 35 days after parturition. The measurements for the former 7 properties were undertaken by a rapid blood analyzer-system. Experiments were performed in two seasons, winter (January to April) and summer (June to September), using 11 cows in each seasonal group.
    The degree of inclusive variation of the 10 blood properties by discriminant analysis was low in winter and very high in summer between 260 days of pregnancy and 5 days after parturition. It was high in both seasons between 5 days and 35 days after parturition. In addition, in comparison between the corresponding stages in the two seasonal groups, the degree was higher in summer than in winter. The discrepancy in the seasonal patterns seemed to occur by the differences in environmental factors, such as temperature and feeding conditions, in addition to stresses due to pregnancy, parturition and lactation. It was verified that discriminant analysis, one of the multiple variance analyses, was useful for an inclusive, objective judgment on data of multiple clinical examinations in dairy cows.

    Sixteen cows with urolithiasis showed higher serum urea nitrogen (SUN) values (mean, 43.1 mg/dl) than 42 unhealthy cattle (mean, 18.5 mg/dl). Generally, high SUN values and liver disturbances were seen in both groups of cows. Calculi were found in the urethrae of all the 16 cows and in the bladder in 15 cows. Urocystitis was seen in 8 cows. Six cows contained calculi in the kidney, showing high SUM values.
    SUN value was more than 60 mg/dlin 5 of the 16 cows. Rupture of the bladder was found in 4 of the 5 cows, which had suffered from urinary stasis and uremia.

    Escherichia colicould be isolated at the rate of 78.9% from the mesenteric lymph node in 38 calves about one week old, but not in 9 calves 1-5 months old. The isolates could be typed at the rate of 51.6-72.3% by employing the known O-group antisera. The isolates from the small and large intestine of calves 1-5 months old could be serotyped at the rate of 80 and 15.8%, respectively.
    Eighteen of the known O-group serotypes were detected in the isolates from the mesenteric lymph nodes. The frequent incidence of the same serotypes could be observed in the isolates from the intestine of calves whose mesenteric lymph nodes were positive forE. coli.Only 5 to 9 of the O-9roup serotupes forE. coli.Only 5 to 9 of the O-group serotypes were detected in the isolates from calves whose mesenteric lymph nodes were negative forE. coli.
