The last division of our classification is the greatest 
numerically, but is hardly the most important, because 
actual disease in the foot is as a rule not only soon detected 
but the subject of it is rarely brought for examination as

Quittor.

1. Grease. 
2. Ringbone.

These are :— 
1. Corns. 
Laminitis, Subacute and Chronic. 
. Navicular Disease. 
. Sandcrack. 
. Seedy-toe. 
. Thrush,
