Vlll PREFACE. 



The chapters on Bitting and Eiding have been 

 carefully re-written and illustrated. 



The additions to the Hindustanee Vocabulary 

 have been compiled chiefly from the Hidayut 

 Namah of Farrier Major Bunnay Khan and The 

 Bengal Pharmacopoeia, with a few words from a 

 Glossary by Hem Chunder Kerr, and from a 

 Manual of the more Deadly Forms of Cattle 

 Disease in India by H. B. H. 



I beg to thank the Stewards of the Calcutta 

 Turf Club for their kindness in allowing me 

 permission to print their tables for " Weight for 

 Age and Class.' 7
