DISEASES AND THEIR TREATMENT 183 



useful are: "Anatomical Outlines of the Horse," 

 by the late J. A. M'Bride, Ph.D., M.R.C.V.S.,

 Veterinary Professor at the Agricultural College, 

 Cirencester.

 predecessor of Professor Garside at the Royal 

 Agricultural College, Cirencester, is worth studying 

 carefully. The prints are well executed, and, 

 without some such knowledge, it would be pre- 

 sumptuous for any amateur vet to deride the 

 services of a practical, full-fledged vet who has 

 been under a good master of the veterinary art 

 and had a long experience on his own account in 

 a practice which he has built up on his own 

 merits — not merely purchased. 



Another rather old-fashioned, yet not quite

 Mayhew. It has " more than 400 pictorial repre- 

 sentations characteristic of the various diseases to 

 which' the equine race are subjected, together 

 with the latest mode of treatment and all the 

 requisite prescriptions ; written in plain English." 

 The twelfth edition was published in 1881 by 

 William H. Allen & Co., 13 Waterloo Place, 

 London, S.W.
