20 CURINE-The Great 



ject once daily and repeat as often as necessary, 

 and at the same time paint over the surface daily 

 with CURINE in its purity. You must have pa- 

 tience in treating capped hocks, as in these parts 

 the skin is very thick and the absorption is rather 

 slow. 



CORNS. 



A corn is an injury to the living horn of the foot 

 and always appears in that part of the sole in- 

 cluded in the angle between the bar and the out- 

 side wall of the hoof. Corns mostly appear in the 

 front feet, because they support the greater part 

 of the body and the heel is always placed first upon 

 the ground, whereby it receives much more con- 

 cussion than the heel of the hind foot, in which 

 the toe first strikes the ground. 



CAUSES.— Among the causes and conditions that 

 produce corns may be placed the following: Flat 

 feet which are easily bruised, high heels, bad shoe- 

 ing, feet with thin horn, etc. Track horses going 

 at full speed on hard track, and heavy breeds gen- 

 erally used for hauling heavj^ loads on hard streets, 

 are most liable to this trouble. 



TREATMENT.— The cause must be discovered if 

 possible and removed. Pare out all the diseased 

 horn, insert a plug of oakum in the cavity, satu- 

 rated with CURINE, once every other day, and 

 apply a roller bandage. Repeat until a new horn 

 covers the w^ound.
