THE AMERICAN FARMERS Horse Book
There is every reasSn to believe that the above
is really an inrauabte treatise for all those in any
way interested in the horse or mule, but espe
cially so to the farmer, who is not only inter
ested in the.ownership of one or more head for
his own use, but also, 1t may be, in the breeding
raising, and training of others for the market.
1t is neither rehash nor reprint from foreign
authors, (as are many of the veterinary works
now In circulatlon,) but is distinetiyely Afneri.
can, based upon an experience gained in pFac-
tations Of the West aud Southwest Itisvery
comprehensive. and pre-eminently practical in
character, discussing almost every subject re-
lating to the care and management Of the horse,
with fullness, clearness and originality. The
simplicity and dlrectness of the authors
style is especially commendabe, there being
scarcely page in the whole volume above the
comprehension of any intelligent boy old enough
to manage team. We notice particularly that
the modes of treating many of the diseases and
accidents to which the horse and mule are sub.
ject are original with this author, while the
remedies employed, are for the most part very
general in their application, and hence, FEW IN
NUMBER. 1t seems that the author has studied
assiduousy to first classify the various diseases
then to devise oae Effective remedy for each class
by which means he has succeeded In reducing
the number of principal remedies employed to a
very small compass, and thus greatly simplify
the whole matter of the treatment of the horse
in sickness We notice, too that many of the
most important remedies employed are COM
pounded from materials that every farmer is
almost sure to have either In his house or In bis
garden or pasture SO that they may be had in
cases of emergency, VitAout delay and at small
cost.
When q horse Is taken sick, the ffst reqpiste
is to know rhat is the matter, and then rhat 10
do, and we notice ID this book TABLE OF sY MP
TOMS, by the aid'of which, person would, we
should judge, fud it next to impossible to 60
astray in these particulars.
The publisher informs us the work has In two
years reached a sale Of thirty MOasasd copies dis
tributed throughout every portion Of the Union,
witha goodly spfinkllng for Canada, and one
OR two large orders from the West indies and
that the demand is steadily increasing; that the
work has been subjected to the most severe
ractical tests in thousands of cases. in all parts
of the country, and has given uabounded satisfac-
ton eve'yEhsre, and we believe such to be The
case. }a
