Replacement of Hoof.

Generally horse that has lost hoof
by accident is thought to be beyond re-
covery, and as the injury is excessively
painful, the poor creature is DESTROYED
at once. But the natural replacement
OF the hoof seems to be a possible and
even probable occurrence under proper
treatment and favorable conditions.
We hear of horse in San Francisco
which had its hoof torn off by hewheel
OF dray, and being not only valuable
but favorite, it was determined, if pos
sible, to effect cure. The horse was
slung for nine days, during which time
it suffered most acute pain. After this
the pain apparently abated, and the
horse was lowered to his feet, the
wounded foot being well preserved
from any undue amount of exertion.
The horn, or hoof, has now grown two
thirds of its natural size and in a proper
shape, and it is hoped that the hoof
will become sufficiently strong to bear
a shoe and allow the animal to return TO
work. The cure has been brought
about by humane treatment and con-
stant care.
