176 PRATTS POINTERS ON THE HORSE 



quick and jerky ; breathing short and sharp, and the 

 horse practically mad. 



Where Pratts Food, Pratts Animal Regulator or 

 Pratts Condition Powder is fed constantly, a regular, 

 healthy condition is produced, with perfect digestion. 

 Consequently, a horse given these remedies, and prop- 

 erly looked after, is not subject to an attack of staggers. 

 If Pratts Remedies do not move the bowels, administer 

 one quart of castor oil. 



However, in accordance with our note on page 119, 

 we mention another remedy : A quart of any kind of oil 

 should be given at once, excepting kerosene. If no oil 

 is at hand, fresh melted grease will answer ; but no salted 

 grease. If the disease has advanced considerably before 

 discovery, a quart of castor oil containing ten drops of 

 croton oil should be given at once. Repeat if this does 

 not move the bowels inside of five or six hours, giving 

 twenty drops of croton oil instead of ten. If still no 

 effect, repeat in five or six hours with thirty drops of 

 croton oil instead of twenty. 



As the animal recovers, Pratts Remedies as a tonic 

 should be given, and the bowels watched carefully, as 

 it takes some time for the animal to recover its full 

 health.
