T HE HORSE, THE HORSE, 
NOBLEST OF DOMESTIC ANIMALS, 
And the one most frequently ill-treated, neglected, and abused. 
We have just published a Book so valuable to every man who 
owns a horse, that no one should willingly be without it. It is 
entitled, 
THE MODERN HORSE DOCTOR, 
and is from the pen of tliat celebrated English Veterinary Sur¬ 
geon, Dr. GEO. H. DADD, well known for many years in this 
country, as one of the most successful scientific and popular 
writers and lecturers in this branch of Medical and Surgical 
science. The Book which he now offers to the public is the 
result of many years’ study and practical experience which few 
have had. 
From the numerous and strong commendations, of distinguished 
men and the newspaper press, we select the following: 
Extract from a letter from Hon. John H. Clifford, Ex-Governor 
of Massachusetts: 
New-Bedford, May 11 , 1854. 
Dr. Dadd—D ear Sir: I hope your new work on the noblest 
creature that man has ever been permitted to hold in subjection 
—the Horse—will meet with that success which all your efforts 
in this direction so well deserve. 
Your obedient servant, 
John H. Clifford. 
From Hon. Marshall P. Wilder. 
Boston, May 13, 1854. 
Dr. Dadd—M y Dear Sir : I am greatly obliged to you for the 
valuable treatise, the results of your own investigations, which 
you have recently issued, hoping that it may meet with the 
patronage of a discriminating community. 
I remain yours with great regard, 
Marshall P. Wilder. 
The “ Modern Horse Doctor,” bv Dr. G. H. Dadd, is a manual 
of genuine science, and ought to be owned and studied on the 
score of humanity, as well as interest, by every man who owns a 
horse. [Boston Congregationalist. 
Dr. Dadd has had great experience in the cure of sick horses, 
and explains the secret of his success in this volume. 
[New York Tribune. 
The author of this work is well known as a most skillful vete¬ 
rinary surgeon. His book is based on the soundest common 
sense, and as a hand-book for practicul use, we know of nothing 
to compare with it. [Yankee Blade. 
We know Dr. Dadd well, and are satisfied that he possesses 
most important qualifications for preparing such a book as this. 
[New-England Fanner. 
Messrs. Jewett k Co. have just published a very valuable work 
by Mr. Dadd, a well-known veterinary surgeon, on the causes, 
nature and treatment of disease, and lameness in horses. 
. [Farmer’s Cabinet. 
This is one of the most valuable treatises on the subject ever 
published; and no owner of that noblest of the animal race, the 
horse, should he without it. Especially should it be in the 
hands of every hotel and livery-stable keeper. To many a man 
would it be woith hundreds of dollars every year. 
[Ind. Democrat, Concord. 
By far the most learned and copious -work on 1 he horse and his 
diseases we have ever seen. [N. Y. Evangelist. 
One of t he greatest and most, commendable qualities of this 
work is, it is practical and plain to the comprehension of those 
farmers and others for whom it is mainly designed The course 
of treatment favors generally a more sanative and rational sys¬ 
tem of medication than that recommended in any previously ex¬ 
isting works on farriery. No farmer or owner of a horse should 
be without this book. Stable-keepers, stage-proprietors and 
hackmen we believe would derive profit by having at least one 
copy hung up in their stables for use and reference by their 
stablemen. [Daily News, Philadelphia. 
There is more common sense in this book than any of the kind 
we have ever seen, and farmers and owners of horses would find 
it a matter of economy to possess themselves of it. It will be of 
more service than the counsel of a score of ordinary doctors. 
[Albany Courier. 
We deem this decidedly the best and most reliable work on 
the “ Cause, Nature, and treatment of Disease and Lameness in 
Horses,” ever published. [Nantucket Inquirer. 
What we have read of this book induces us to regard it as a 
very sensible and valuable work; and we learn that those much 
more competent to judge of its value, have given it their un¬ 
qualified approval. [Eve. Traveller, Boston. 
This book supplies a great desideratum which Skinner’s ad¬ 
mirable treatise on the horse did not fill. Eveiy man may be 
his own veterinary surgeon, and with much greater safety to this 
noble animal, than by trusting him to the treatment of the em¬ 
pirical itinerants who infest the country. It. is well illustrated, 
and should be purchased by every man who owns a horse. 
[Evo. Mirror, New-York. 
This is a book that should be forthwith put into the hands of 
all who own or drive horses, whether for the dray or gig, for the 
plow, omnibus or road, for hard sendee or pleasure. 
[McMakm’s Courier, Phila. 
A good, clearly-written book, which should be in the hands of 
every man who has a horse whose ills his affection or his purse 
make it worth while to cure. [Bangor Mercury. 
It is a valuable book to those who have the care of horses. 
[Hartford Herald. 
This is a scientific, thorough and complete treatise upon the 
diseases to which one of the noblest of animals is subject, and 
the remedies which they severally require. [Troy Budget. 
He is not worthy to have a horse in his care who will not use 
such a work to qualify himself for his duties to this animal.
