under the horses head with a shovel, and allow- 

 ing him to inhale the smoke. Care should be 

 used so as not to strangle the horse. By strictly 

 following the foregoing treatment the efficacy 

 of this remedy will be shown, as the animal will 

 be relieved in from fifteen to twenty minutes. 

 Another remedy is : 



Frequent injections of soap and water ; and 

 give internally, spirits of nitre, 10 drams ; lauda- 

 num, 10 drams ; water, y 2 pint. Mix for drench. 

 This may be repeated in twenty minutes, if relief 

 is not obtained. 



Another remedy, giving instant relief: 

 From 45 to 50 drops of chloroform, given on 

 sugar, I have never known to fail giving imme- 

 diate relief. 



I have known men to be from home, and have 

 their horses taken with this disease, and use this 

 remedy, and in thirty minutes the horses were 

 able to be driven.
