10 CURINE-The Great 



body, through which a discharge is taking place. 

 It may exist at any part, but it mostly appears on 

 the withers. Poll-evil is a fistula and in no sense 

 differs from fistulous withers except as to location. 

 Fistula follows as a result of abscesses, wounds, 

 bruises, irritation by the harness, saddle, bad fit- 

 ting collars, etc. Fistula of the poll— poll evil— are 

 caused chiefly by a chafing of the halter or heavy 

 bridle; blows from a club or the butt-end of a 

 whip, striking his head against the hayrack, ceil- 

 ing, low doors^ etc. 



TREATMENT.— When the formation of pus Is 

 Inevitable, this must be hurried as much as possi- 

 ble. Hot fomentations and poultices are to be con- 

 stantly used, and as soon as fluctuation can be 

 plainly felt the abscess wall is to be opened at its 

 lowest point, to allow the pus to escape as soon as 

 formed; then inject 10 to 20 drops of CITRINE, di- 

 luted with equal quantities of alcohol and water, 

 twice a day, and, as the wound becomes more 

 healthy, dilute CURINE in proportion. 



FISTULA OF THE FOOT— QIHTTOR. 



Should be treated on the same principle as those 

 already described. When fistulous ti;acts are found 

 at unusual points, carefully examine to see if some 

 foreign body, as a splinter of wood, etc., is not re- 

 tained in the wound.

Gentlemen:— We have been using your Curine in 

 several cases, and find it to have all the properties 

 you recommend, and in my judgment is the best 

 liniment and absorbent I have ever seen, and it 

 reaches deep-seated troubles. I think it is a com- 

 pound that should be in every stable. 



Yours very truly, JOHN C. WEETY, Atty.
