"Improper grinding of food produces indigestion and 

 staring or dead-like coat of hair. Large numbers of horses 

 endure constant suffering as the result of improper attention 

 to the teeth, and frequently lose llesli and get in a bad con-

 examined by a competent veterinary dentist, who alone can 

 give the proper care and attention, and must be equipped 

 with the jDroper instruments to accomplish the work. Such 

 attention is necessary for young horses as well as old ones."
