Further
Treatment.
Cordial

of
the
kinds
recommended,
with
the
clyster,
will
have
the
effect,
in
ordinary

to
relieve
the

be
the
case,
after
waiting
an
hour
or
two,
(longer
or
shorter
ac-
cording
to
the
severity
of
the
ailment,
or
the
period
since
its
commencement,)
then
the

should
be
repeated,

in
a
less
dose
than
at
first,
—
perhaps
one-half
or
two-thirds
of
the
former
quantity.

horse
should
be
occasionally
walked
out,
properly
