"tip," rasp away the horn of the wall until a thin 

 layer covers the tissues beneath the heel so that 

 the frog- may rest on the ground. Paint around 

 the coronet with CURINE once a day for a week 

 and repeat in three or four weeks. This will stim- 

 ulate a rapid and healthy g-rowth of horn. If the 

 animal's service can be spared, turn him to pasture 

 in a damp field for a -month or so; if not, use some 

 good hoof ointment on the horn and sole and 

 make the floor of his stall damp with clay or wet 

 straw. If all horses stood on damp clay floors 

 there would be few contracted heels. 



SPRAINS OF THE FETLOCK.

 subsided, then paint with Dr. Turnbull's CURINE 

 twice daily for one week; allow the animal another 



CURINE CURES.

 horses. I have one horse at present that had a 

 very bad curb that it has completely cured.
