SPRATT'S PATENT 



PREPARED 



FOAL FOOD. 



This Food is specially i^repared to meet a want long felt by breeders 

 of horses. The principle of its preparation consists in a thorough 

 imitation of the milk of the mare, so that, when mixed in the proportions 

 indicated in the directions, its nutrient constituents and digestive 

 qualities are fullj' equal to the milk of the mother. 



Tlie use of this Food will overcome the difficulty of a mother having 

 a deficient supply of milk, or even in the entire absence of the mother 

 the foal can be successfully reared on it from the birth. 



As a restorative drink for hunters (especiall}" those that are bad 

 feeders), when they return exhausted, from a long day's work and fast, 

 it is invaluable. Being thoroughly cooked it is light, easily digested, 

 and exceedingly soothing to the stomach and intestines, bringing the 

 stomach sooner l)ack to a fit state to receive food than anything else 

 could possibly do. 



" The Cobham Stud, Limited, Cobliam, May 25th, 1880. 



"To ' Spratt's Patent ' : — I used your Patent Food for foals with 

 very great success. Latterly one foal has been entirely fed upon it, and 

 it seems to have brought it on as well as if it had been sucking its 

 mother. I liave also given it to foals whose dams were short of milk, and 

 I found that it in no way disagreed with the foals by taking it with the 

 dam's milk at the same time ; on the contrary, the foals made a very 

 satisfactory improvement. I can strongly recommend the food to all 

 breeders of blood stock. 



" Yours very truly, R. D. Bell, Manager."
