54 ACUTE. FOUNDER. 



1 drachm digitales, 2 draclims tartar emetic, 3 

 drachm saltpetre. If no amendment is appa- 

 rent after this, blood should again be extracted 

 on the following day. In extreme cases, a third 

 bleeding may be justifiable, and instead of the 

 poultice, cloths kept wet with water in which 

 nitre has been dissolved, in the proportion of 

 an ounce of nitre to a pint of water. The 

 cloths should be wrapped around the feet. 



Treatment — Kemedy No. 2. 



Take 1 quart sweet milk, 1 quart molasses, 

 J oz. pulverized saltpetre, mix and dissolve all 

 together, give in 2 drenches about 5 minutes 

 apart: this is highly recommended by those who 

 have tried it.
