The animal must be debarred from food till the violence 

 of the disease is abated, and then it ought to be sparingly 

 given for some time. Cold bran mashes, carrots, and a 

 little sweet hay may be given. After a day or two, if all 

 goes on favorably, a few oats may be allowed ; cold soft 

 water, frequently refreshed, should be constantly kept 

 within reach of the horse. 



If the legs are cold, they must be rubbed with the hands, 

 and flannel bandages applied ; the usual practice is to use 

 straw or hay bands, but these are too cumbrous, and fre- 

 quently irritate the animal, and consequently do more 

 harm than good.
