THE 



MODEEN SYSTEM OF FARRIERY. 



PART II. 



OF DISEASES GENERALLY. 



As tins work is intended for general use to 

 alJ persons who are proprietors of florses, we 

 have not entered into the a"atomical part, as 

 most modein writers have done, as elementary 

 works for the use of students, but have con- 

 fined ourselves to the practical part only. 



Without becoming a convert to the usual 

 style of dividing and sub-dividing chapters, 

 cases, and remedies, as has in general been 

 the custom, introducing a great portion of 



matter, I shall proceed, as in other respects, 

 and contract the plan, as much as the con- 

 sistercy of circumstances will allow, by bring- 

 ing in classes such accidents or diseases as 

 bear a degree of affinity to each other, or 

 como under a similar mode of treatment ; and 

 shall likewise, as much as possible, divest 

 each case and explanation of technical terms 

 that every part may be universally compre- 

 hended.
