 far in under the horse, the head is erect and high. W!hen 

 the animal is forced to move, it staggers, jumps, and is

 animal will keep the suffering foot raised most of the time. 

 TREATMENT: — Prepare an airy stall with an abun- 

 dance of good bedding, move the horse into it, and en-

REMEDY NO. 68 AS DIRECTED. 

 Apply ice water or cold water cloths to the feet; in 

 a few hours, possibly you will be able to remove the 

 shoes; in doing this, every nail should be made loose and 

 as little hammering on the foot as possible. By per- 

 suading the animal to lie down, administering our remedy 

 No. 68 and applying cold water cloths, in a day or two 

 the horse will be none the worse from the attack; but this 

 disease when left to itself, will render the horse unfit for 

 use ever afterwards. After thorough recovery, shoe 

 carefully, and keep the feet soft. Do not put the animal 

 to work to soon. Exercise gently, but to much exercise 

 is harmful.
