SPECIAL NOTIFICATION. 



Dr. J. B. Coleman hereby notifies the owners of valuable 

 horses throughout the American States that, upon invitation, he 

 will proceed to any readily accessible locality within the States 

 for the purpose of giving instructions in his methods of treating 

 the various foot-diseases of the horse. His instructions in- 

 clude demonstrations upon the feet of horses suffering from 

 maladies that are usually deemed incurable, such as the sup-

 locality to thoroughly induct his pupils into the whole rationale 

 of the causes and treatment of foot diseases, than which, fully 

 understood, nothing can be more simple and rational ; more 

 perfectly adapted to accomplish the ends in view, or more 

 easily acquired ; and a correct knowledge of which is of im- 

 measurable value to owners of first-class stock. 



A general knowledge of these principles and processes will 

 save millions worth of horse-stock from sacrifice or destruction; 

 which means millions saved to individual and national gain. 



The author can save, and show others how to save, ninety- 

 five per cent of all cases of so-called incurable diseases ; and 

 cure rapidly, in a few weeks at most, the worst cases of Quarter-

 this should no longer be kept secret. What would not some 

 horse- owners give if their horses could be prevented from 

 Interfering, Speedy-cutting, Knee-hitting, and other Irregular 

 Actions, so as to dispense with boots and pads? That this is 

 readily effected, is as demonstrable as that one and one make
