First^ clip off the hair, and then rub on the 

 part the blistering ointment (No. 113, p. 171.) 

 every morning for three or four days together. 

 In the course of a few days, or as soon as the 

 part that has been blistered becomes dry, let the 

 horse be turned out to grass for a month or six 

 weeks; but, if in winter, let him be kept in a 

 straw-yard for the same time. This method of 

 treatment rarely fails entirely to remove these fla- 

 tulent tumors; but the most effectual way of dis- 

 persing them, so that they shall not return a se- 

 cond time, will be, neatly to fire the part, and 

 blister it for three or four mornings together with 

 the blistering ointment above mentioned, and in a 

 few days after he may be turned out to grass as 

 before directed.
