96 DR. LEGEAR'S STOCK BOOK. 



Give the animal all the pure water he will drink, and feed on 

 bran, boiled oats, grass, fodder, etc. Keep the patient in a com- 

 fortable place and have him well cared for. This is a disease if 

 taken in time and has the proper treatment that can in most cases 

 be cured in from two to six days. After the horse has improved 

 considerably, give him the following tonic powders: 



Nitrate of potassium 1 J ounces. 



Powdered gentian 3 ounces. 



Powdered sulphate of iron 2 ounces. 



Powdered nux vomica 1 J ounces. 



Powdered anise seed 2 drams. 



Mix, and make twelve powders, and give one powder 

 morning and night in damp feed. 



Or Dr. LeGear's Condition Powders (see Appendix) may be 

 given, which are just as good and much cheaper.
