GLANDERS. 2>^y 



Beiore I clofe my obfervations upon this 

 difeafe, let it be well underftood, that during 

 the whole courfe of management, the head of 

 the horfe is to be kept as warm as poffible, and 

 in proportion much more fo than the body, 

 either in a double kerfey hood, or a fingle 

 external, and a flannel (or feat cotton) one 

 underneath; for, it may readily be conceived 

 (without much information) nothing can con- 

 tribute money to a folution of the humours and 

 p;'omotion of their difcharge, than a critical 

 relaxation of the pores, particularly upon the 

 very feat of difeafe: from this confideration 

 arifes convidlion, that affifting circumflances 

 co-operate with and are as neceffary as the ex- 

 ternal or internal admin iftration of medicine ; 

 experience having afforded ample proof that 

 a combinaiion may effedl what is not in the 

 power of individuals to perform* 



The ftrong mercurial ointment direcfted for 

 the repuliion of Glandular tumours under this 

 head, as alfo in the Farcy (p. 143) may be 

 procured at any medical difpenfary by that 

 name, or thus prepared :
