THACKER, SPINK &- CO., CALCUTTA. 



The Veterinary Joitrnal. — "A handy little book for the use of horse- 

 owners, which may prove of much service to them when they cannot obtain 

 the assistance of a veterinary surgeon, as well as afford them some notion 

 of many of the ailments to which the horse is exposed, and the manner in 

 which they may be best treated." 



The Sporting Ti/nes. — " It is what it professes to be — a clear and com- 

 prehensive manual for all horse-owners, and, without trenching too much 



upon the almost sacred mysteries of the veterinary art, it places a valuable 

 weapon of defence in the hands of those who may be out of the reach of 

 professional assistance, and we should be glad to see it as a part of the 

 ' properties ' wherever a horse is kept." 



Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News. — ".Simplicity is one of the 

 most commendable features in the book. What Captain Hayes has to say 

 he says in plain terms, and the book is a very useful one for everybody who 

 is concerned with horses." 



The Sporting Life. — "We heartily welcome the second edition of this 

 exceedingly useful book. The first edition was brought out about two 

 years since, but the work now under notice is fully double the size of its 

 predecessor, and as a matter of course contains more information. Captain 

 Hayes, the author, is not only a practical man in all things connected with 

 the horse, but has also studied his subject from a scientific point of view."
