should the horse be worked until fully recovered. Give 

 Pratts Prepared Fever Powder as directed below, and 

 as soon as fever stops, discontinue the powders, and do 

 not work the horse until he gets his natural strength 

 and is fully recovered. 



Give one of Pratts Fever Powders twice a day for 

 three days, and follow up this treatment with daily 

 doses of Pratts Food for Horses and Cattle. This will 

 supply the necessary tonic to the sick horse, which is 

 necessary to build up his run-down condition. 



For two-year-old colts, give one-half the quantity of 

 powder. 



For one-year-old colts, give one- fourth the quantity. 



To give Pratts Fever Powders, open the horse's 

 mouth, take the tongue in the left hand, and empty the 

 Powder on the back part of the tongue.
