element. lie has operated successful Y
on quite Il number and there are now
II great mtny Waiting, as the weather is
getting fine, reople have had great oh.
jectons to have their horses operated on
in cold weather; nevertheless we have
operated on quite number, and in every
instance with satisfaction
Our first start. was breaking haulky,
vicious mare at Owens Tai Cnchlon -

has worked quietly ever since. That
ga W. start The second case was at
Pas Y Ghyn, rear your home. We
took mare that was supposed to be un.

the idea Of our taking that case,
but few hours work on her resulted in
/ causing some of the lookers-on to laugh
the other way When Elias found the
result Of our labor to be so satisfactory,
he Immediately paid US ten pounds for
learning him the art of horse. tauing.-
We gelded several horses in that icinity
and gave good satisfaction The third
