MANGE. 183 



There is lameness and swelling of the pasterns,

 unless it is let out, it will extend in all directions 

 under the foot, and appear at the coronet or top of 

 the hoof; and from this long narrow ulcers remain,

TREATMENT. Examine the foot carefully, and re- 

 move all foreign substances, dirt, etc., that may be

 and wrap it in a turnip or oatmeal poultice ; the 

 hoof should be pared, and those parts of it cut away 

 that may interfere with the escape of matter ; all 

 dead hoof must be removed. The sore must be ex- 

 amined, and if dark and unhealthy, the MARVEL and 

 poultices must be renewed from time to time until 

 the dark matter sloughs off. After the ulcer looks 

 clean, apply tar and melted tallow in equal propor-
