200 HOW TO EDUCATE HORSES. 



SWELLED TEATS. 



Make pomade of camphorated spirit of brandy, and 

 goose grease; apply two to three times daily. 



TO EXTRACT THORNS. 



Cobbler's wax bound on to the place, or black pitch 

 plaster, or a poultice, are equally good. 



FILMS OVER THE EYES. 



Blue-Stone or lunar caustic, eight grains; spring 

 water, one ounce. Wash the eyes with it, letting a 

 little pass in. Repeat this daily, and you will soon 

 cure it. 



FILMS CAUSED BY THORN WOUNDS. 



Rest the dog till perfectly headed over, washing with 

 rose water. H much inflammation, bleed and foment 

 with hot water, with a few drops of laudanum in it — 

 about forty drops of laudanum to one ounce of water, 

 or two grains of opium to one ounce of water — one as 

 good as the other. Then apply four or five times the 

 following wash: Super-acetate of lead, half drachm; 

 rose water, six ounces. 



STRIPPING FEET. 



Wash in bran and warm water with a little vinegar; 

 afterward apply tincture of myrrh. Apply sweet oil 

 before he goes out. If his feet are sore wash in but- 

 termilk until better; then apply brine and vinegar, 

 equal parts. 



WOUNDS. 



Poultice for a day or two ; then apply Friar's balsam, 

 covering up the place.
