102 THE DISEASES OF HORSES. 



Vives.— A swelling of the glands under the ears, often ending in a tumour. 



Wolves' Teeth.— Sometimes called eye teeth, a small tooth appearing 

 on upper jaw about an inch from the grinders, which should be removed. 

 The term is also applied to teeth that grow in such a manner as to 

 prick and wound the tongue or gums— this arises from the teeth meetingt 

 the upper often overlapping the under, and consequently not being ground 

 level— these wolves' teeth are mostly seen in old horses, and their points 

 should be filed.
