Rodgers used grafts from the under wing of a young fowl, as suggested by Redard, with good result.

Vanmeter of Colorado describes a boy of fourteen with a severe extensive burn; a portion beneath the chin and lower jaw, and the right arm from the elbow to the fingers, formed a granulating surface which would not heal, and grafting was resorted to.

The neck-grafts were supplied by the skin of the father and brother, but the arm-grafts were taken from two young puppies of the Mexican hairless breed, whose soft, white, hairless skin seemed to offer itself for the purpose with good prospect of a successful result.

The outcome was all that could be desired.

The puppy-grafts took faster and proved themselves to be superior to the skin-grafts.
