1t is said that "moOn blindness In a
horse Is caused 10y wolf teeth"-two
small surplus teeth Just in front of the
first upper premolars. one on each
side of the upper jaw. An authority
says: 1.-The wolf teeth do NOT cause
eye disease or any other harm and usu.
ally are not discovered until the eve
disease appears. The eye trouble is
periodic ophthalmia' (moon blindness,
which is hereditary and incurable
Thousands upon thousands of horses

important matter to remember in con

the Significance of the wolf tooth but
