PARALYSIS 



CAUSES 



The causes are not definitely known and are probably quite variable. 



SYMPTOMS 



The loss of the control of the hind quarters inability to rise as they 

 should and difllculty in moving are the chief symptoms in parTiavl 

 paralysis. 



TREATMENT 



The more severe the symptoms the less likely they are to recover. If 

 the horse can stand in a sling made by 2 poles and old gunny sacks 

 there is hope for recovery. (See illustration). Blister the effected part
