To
cure
Gripes
in
Horses,
This
(li^^order
goes
by
different
names
in
different
districts
of
the
country
;
as
fret,
—
from
the
uneasiness
attending
it;
bots,
—
from
its
being
thought
to
arise
from
these
animals
or
worms,
&c.
The
animal
looks
dull
and
rejects
his
food
;
becomes
restless
and
un-
easy,
frequently
pawing;
voids
his
excrements
in
small
quantities,
and
often
tries
to
stale
;
looks
round,
as
if
toward
his
own
flank
or
the
seat
of
complaint
;
soon
appears
to
get
worse,
often
lying
down,
and
sometimes
suddenly
rising
up,
or
at
times
trying
to
roll,
even
in
the
stable,
&c.
As
the
dis-
order
goes
on,
the
pain
becomes
more
violent
;
he
appears
more
restless
still,
kicks
at his
belly,
groans,
rolls
often,
or
tumbles
about,
with
other
marks
of
great
agitation
;
becomes
feverish,
and
has a
cold
