VETERINARY NOTES FOR HORSE-OWNERS. 
■ AN EVERY-DAY HORSE BOOK. 
By CAPT. M. HORACE HAYES. 
OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. 
Saturday Review. — "The work is written in a clear and practical way." 
The Field. — " Of the many popular veterinary books which have come under our 
notice, this is certainly one of the most scientific and reliable. The author tells us, 
in the preface to the first edition, that any merit which the book may possess is to 
be ascribed to the teaching of the Prin- 
cipal and Professors of the New Veteri- 
nary College at Edinburgh, where he 
studied. It is much to be desired that 
every student would make so much use 
of his opportunities as Capt. Hayes has 
done. 
' ' Some notice is accorded to nearly 
all the diseases which are common to 
horses in this country, and the writer 
_ _^ takes advantage of his Indian experience 
/ j J / '^^^^^'^^St-X to touch upon several maladies of horses 
^-^.^^^^^^y'''^— — ^'^^^ S^\J^t in that country, where veterinary sur- 
' ■"' geons are few and far between. The 
description of symptoms and the direc- 
tions for the application of remedies are 
given in perfectly plain terms, which the 
tyro will find no difficulty in compre- 
hending ; and, for the purpose of further 
smoothing his path, a chapter is given 
on veterinary medicines, their actions, uses, and doses. This information will be 
most acceptable to the majority of horse-owners, and may be invaluable on an emer- 
gency when no advice better than that of the village cow doctor can be obtained."
