Always go to a horseshoer who thoroughly understands the anatomy of
the horse's foot.
[Illustration: ~MORGAN HORSE~]
The hoof is not an insensitive mass of horn, to be cut, rasped, burned,
nail-pierced, and hammered without causing pain or injury. It is a thin
mass of horn overlying and intimately attached to a sensitive, blood and
nerve-endowed tissue called the "quick" which is capable of suffering
excruciating agony.
The slices should be made to fit the hoof and need to be reset once a
month.
The permanent teeth are forty--twenty-four grinders, twelve front teeth
and four tusks, except in mares, which seldom have tusks. The age of a
horse can be told more or less accurately by the teeth.
The teeth are liable to disease and should be closely watched.
Bad teeth are often an unsuspected cause of indigestion, loss of
condition, bad coat, slobbering and other troubles which puzzle the
owner. Horses very often have decayed teeth, and suffer with toothache.
These teeth should be removed.
Horse Diseases If horses and cattle were left free to roam as Nature

intended, many of their present-day ailments would be unknown. Man
has taken these animals from Nature's broad garden, and confined them
to the narrow limits of stable and stall. No longer can they seek out and
instinctively find just those roots, herbs, seeds, and barks which their
systems demand.
This explains why Pratts Animal Regulator has been used by successful
horsemen for nearly a half century, as it is largely composed of these
same vegetable ingredients from Nature's garden.
Merit and quality count, and while hosts of imitators have sprung up,
none have ever come near equalling our product. Pratts Animal
Regulator restores to the animals their natural constitutions and
functions, supplying just that which they formerly had, but now lack.
While not a cure for every disease, it is a positive preventive of the
most common disorders.
It aids digestion and insures the animal receiving full benefit of its food;
purifies the blood and keeps the bowels free and
