Sharp & Smith’s Improved Ecraseur. 
In presenting this Ecraseur to the veterinary profession, we 
feel confident that at last we have an instrument that excels all 
others. The improvement consists of a corrugated piece “A” 
that when turned to the left loosens it from the screw and 
enables the operator to slide it up the barrel a r d take up the 
slack chain. This is done without drawing ouc the screw or 
lengthening the ecraseur ; and there is no wear on the screw. 
Dr. T. D. Hinebauch, of Lafayette, Ind., says: “It is the most 
rapid instrument I have ever used. I castrated a two-year old 
colt in one and a quarter minutes. This is from the time he was 
brought out until he was returned castrated. Price $12.00. 
Weder’s Emasculator, $10.00. 
Can be conveniently used with one hand. Greater 
power is obtainable through the use of this instrument 
than with any other pattern. Thoroughly aseptible. We 
also make this Emasculator with drop handles for stand¬ 
ing operation.
