examples: After a due examination of the mouth has been made, and we have selected the tooth to be operated upon, the animal should be restrained by means of a twitch, and a balling-iron ought then to be placed in the mouth . The common open balling-iron will answer the purpose, but the one I would recommend you to use is that invented by Mr. Varnell .
It is necessary at times to give a medicinal ball to a horse, and as few grooms are expert at administering a ball without assistance, a balling-iron affords them that assistance.
Every groom should know how to give a ball, which is managed either with or without a balling-iron, an instrument which is seldom wanted , and which sometimes occasions considerable mischief to the roof of the horse's mouth .
The man using a balling-iron has, therefore, to guard himself from blows rapidly dealt with the fore hoofs of a desperate animal.

gloss: A unit of measure expressed in number of short tons moved over a specific distance in miles.
pos: noun
examples: In the short series of chapters which is here begun, an attempt will be made to set down and illustrate some of the main principles governing the transportation of freight by railroads in the United States. The primary object is to convey a clear idea of what is meant by the "Ton-mile," the "Train-mile," the "Unit of service," the "Unit of product," and the various other words and phrases commonly used to designate the main facts and things in the Railroad industry.
The Virginian Railway in the year 1911, while still hampered by insufficient equipment, hauled over 2,700,000 tons of freight at a cost of 2.1 mills per ton-mile. Its average rate per ton-mile was 3.6 mills, or less than one-half of the average ton-mile rate in 1910 in the United States. And with a rate of 3.6 mills, the Virginian made a net profit 1.5 mills per ton-mile. Its operating ratio was 59 per cent and its per centage of net earnings to gross 41 per cent. / The ton-mile cost is a much truer basis for comparison of operating efficiency than the mere operating ratios themselves. Railroads "A" and "B" may both have an operating ratio of 60 per cent, but Railroad "A" may have attained this operating ratio on the average ton-mile rate of 4 mills while Railroad "B" may have attained the same ratio on a ton-mile rate of 8 mills.
If the F.R. ever expands its administration to include a statistician, his figure for net foot-pounds of elbow grease per trailing ton-mile are going to look quite impressive.
Nevertheless, since 1938 the French National Railways' passenger traffic has risen by 60 per cent and freight traffic, in terms of ton-miles, 130 per cent.
