Of HORSES FOUNDERED in the FEET, or, CORNS in 

 the FEET, or a SHATTERED BRITTLE FOOT, 



IN the firfl place drefs and pare the Fore-feet quite thin with 

 a Butteris ; then with a drawing-knife, drefs and pare the 

 fole-part, until the blood appears all over it ; and if there 

 Ihould be Corns, draw them well out, and walh the fole-part 

 with Oil of Turpentine. Then take Venice Turpentine and 

 Marfli Mallows Ointment, of each two ounces, mixed together 

 cold for ufe; then fpread the fole-part of the Foot all over 

 with the above Ointment, and lay a Bladder on the Foot ; 

 then fet the fhoe on the top of the Bladder, and flop the Foot 

 up with dry Tow, upon the Bladder. Repeat the above dref- 

 ling every other day, until the Foot is recovered to its for- 

 mer ftrength again ; keep the Horfe in a loofe (table, and do 

 not ftir him out for a fortnight at lead. 



But if a fevere pain from the effect of an injured Foot, and 

 the Coronet feems to bulge out all around, make ufe as fol- 

 lows. 



Take Oil of Origanum and the Strong Tincture of Euphor- 



bium, of each one ounce mixed together; rub the Coronet- 



*part all around with the above; and it will caufe it to fweat 



and fcurf much; when the fcurf comes clear off, repeat the 



fame again.
