GLANDERS IN ILLINOIS. 
Maillet lias modified the method of Bernard, so that, instead 
of thinning down the band of hoof, he only applies the rasp upon 
the quarter, and thins down with it all that portion which is ex¬ 
tirpated in the process of Renault, and availing himself also, of 
the drawing and sage-knife. The remaining details of the opera¬ 
tion are like those of the ordinary processes. .An objection to 
this mode is that it can be put in practice only in cases where 
there is already a separation of the wall. It is objectionable 
from its tendency to weaken the foot too much, by interfering 
with the firm and solid adjustment of the shoe, as well as retard¬ 
ing its application to the hoof.
