4 Table of Doses. 



TABLE OF DOSES 



Giving the Different Proportions According to the 

 Ages of Horses and Cattle. 



Whatever the dose of a full-grown horse may be, a 

 colt three years old only requires three-fourths as much. 

 A two year old one-half as much. A yearling one-third 

 as much. The same proportion may be observed in cat- 

 tle from oue year old and upwards. The dose for a one- 

 year old animal, is one-third of the dose of a full grown 

 horse or ox: therefore, the dose for a calf or colt four 

 weeks old, will be one-twelfth as much as the dose for the 

 yearling. And the dose for a two months' old calf or 

 colt, is one-sixth as much as the dose for a yearling. For 

 an animal only one week old, the dose will be one-fourth 

 a? much as the animal aged four weeks. 



In speaking of drachms, ounces, etc., if you have not 

 a measure convenient, the following table will answer the 

 purpose. (
