These mediciaes will have to be continued for a long time, not 

 only to cure the disease, but to improve the health. The horse 

 must be well and highly fed, and removed from other horses while 

 the treatment is going on. Change the feed often, so as to get all 

 the elements that the blood requires, and to keep up the appetite, 

 for if the appetite fails, no cure can be made. 



Remember. Glanders associated with tubercles of the lungs, 

 cannot be cured, and it then partakes rather of the nature of con- 

 sumption than of simple glanders with tubercles, which is easily 

 cured. 



Glass Eye. — (See Eye Diseases.) 



Gleet — (^Nasal.) This term is used to denote a thin, trans- 

 parent discharge from the nose in case of coryza, and as a sequel 

 to catarrh and cold in old and debilitated horses. Whilst there 

 are no ulcers on the lining membrane of the nose, or no enlarge- 

 ment of gland under the jaw, the case may be dismissed as simple 

 gleet, which can be readily cured by good feeding and a few tonic 

 powders, such as powdered sulphate of copper, three ounces; 

 powdered gentian root, four ounces ; powdered Spanish fly, one 

 drachm. Mix and divide into twelve powders, and give one pow-

 weeks, and can be renewed if necessary. Give the powders in 

 large bulk or cut feed, so as to protect the coat of the stomach 

 from the effects of the Spanish fly. 



Granulation. — ^This means the little red portions of flesh, which 

 grow in and fill up holes made by wounds. Sometimes these 

 grow too fast ; then they are unhealthy, being soft, grow beyond 

 the edges of the wound. To prevent this, sprinkle a little pow- 

 dered blue-stone, or a little sulphate of zinc, and the wound will 

 soon heal level with the surrounding surface. 



Gravel in the Foot. — This name conveys an impression that 

 sand or gi'avel has got into the foot, which is often the case fi-om 

 cracks or other openings in the foot, whether from above or below. 

 Wash out the sand, if possible ; if not, remove some of the 

 horn, and wash out well, and fill up the hole by shoemaker's wax 

 applied hoti and smoothed over by the band previously wet, so
