Mr, R. Living/ton on the Excretory DuH of Sheep. 141 



I have in fome inftances found, that the fheep were relieved, 

 .merely by preirmg.out the hardened matter with the finger, fi-om 

 the orifice of the dud in each foot ; perhaps it may in fome 

 cafes be proper to place their feet in warm water, or to ufe a 

 probe or hard hriijli for cleanfmg this paflage. 



May not the ill-health of fheep in wet or muddy paflures, be 

 in fome meafure afcribed to the necefTity of keeping the dud 

 I have mentioned free and open ?
