How TO Buy q Horse.


No sensible man will buy a horse
of any value Or one which he expects
to do good service without first SUBJ
hitting it to a qualified veterinary
surgeon. Many an unprofessional
man has a good eye for a horse, but
he knows little or nothing of its
structure and anatomy, compared
with the trained veterinarian. More
over, the amateur Judge of a horse
is apt to fly to certain points where
he thinks he may detect something,
and overlook others. The veterinary
surgeon, who is examining horses
almost every day, not only brings
his scientific knowledge to bear but
conducts his examination in a sys-
tematic manner, going all over the
horse before be has done with him.
If there be manifested unsoundness,
it will be discovered and pointed
out, but it is in the discovery and
