their warm food once a day as they
would for themselves, they will have no

-Megrims is sometimes caused by
organic disease of the brain, and when
it can be traced to this cause a radical
cure is out of the question. 1t, how

congestion of the blood vessels of the
brain from a too tight-fitting collar,

Horses which are liable to be attacked
with megrims should wear wet sponge
on top of the head in warm weather,
and should not be compelled to wear q
check-rein. Proper attention should al.
so be given to the fitting of the collar.
