In such cases the animal is commonly dosed time after time with nitre in some form or other, which unfortunately relieves the urgent symptoms at the cost of weakening the secretive power of the kidneys to an extent that, when some acute and formidable disease is contracted, those emunctories fail to perform their share in ridding the system of material which is detrimental to health, and recovery from such an attack is thereby retarded, if not rendered absolutely impossible. In the treatment of disease good nursing is to be regarded as equal to skilful medical attention. Without the former, the latter can avail but little; to achieve more than an average amount of success, both must be applied in parallel lines. Those men who have an intuitive love for dumb animals, who are conversant with their habits in health, and who are born with acute perceptive faculties, can be most readily educated into efficient attendants upon sick horses. Without these inborn faculties, no one can become proficient; but the possession of them alone will not suffice, unless they are allied to other habits and quasi talents which are to be acquired or strengthened by experience and the exercise of zeal. A good nurse must be in every sense a horseman; he must be patient, persevering, resolute, cheerful, careful, quiet, and self-possessed, yet prompt to think and act; he should cultivate habits of close observation and obedience to instruction, and be thoroughly reliable; he must know how to administer medicines in all forms, and be able to apply all requisites used in ordinary treatment for the comfort and well-being of the patient. The qualifications I have enumerated as...

Excerpt from Management and Breeding of Horses This book is an attempt at arranging information useful to the farmer, breeder and student. It is the outgrowth of experience both as a practical horse breeder and an instructor. The book includes a discussion of the economic usefulness, judging and allied subjects, early history, a study of the breeds, breeding, feeding, care and management of both horses and mules. Special emphasis is placed on the management of the brood mare as well as that of the colt from the time the mare is bred until the colt is ready for farm work or the market. This includes a discussion of the methods of training, overcoming undesirable habits, fitting, harnessing and the like. Because of the increasing popularity and field of usefulness, the mule is given prominence. This necessitates a consideration of the several breeds of jacks, as well as special suggestions on the care and development of the mule-breeding jack, as not all jacks are suitable for siring mules. In choosing the subject matter a wide search has been made and it has been necessary to eliminate much valuable data, as there is quite an accumulation of material upon the production, care and use of the horse. In this elimination, the author has attempted to keep in mind the needs of the farmer, breeder and student. The arrangement of the subject matter in a book of this class is important. The outline employed has been chosen because in experience it seems the most favorable for the presentation of the text. Following a discussion of judging considerable space is given to the history and development of the several breeds of horses, each breed being discussed in a separate chapter.

Excerpt from Breeding, Training, Management and Diseases of the Horse: And Other Domestic, With Ninety-Five Illustrations There are certain biological laws which relate to Re production, to which all animals are subject. Many of those laws have only been formulated within the past half century; in fact, to the influence of Charles Darwin more than any other man, or perhaps any ten men, is due the formulating of reproductive laws and the grouping of facts relating to them.

Excerpt from Riding and Driving Horses: Their Breeding and Rearing For many years the subjects dealt with in this Address have interested me deeply. Twelve months ago I made application to Mr. Druce, the Secretary of this Club, to make this address, but was unfortunately too late, all arrangements for 1884 having been then made. Very many causes have been assigned for the decline of horse-breeding. It will be noticed that I accept one more particularly, to wit, the failure in per severing to raise animals of size, quality, and value. The principal Object which I have in View, therefore, is to make our shortcomings in this respect more gene rally known, and to offer suggestions for breeding horses of greater size, as they will always command a ready sale at prices remunerative to the breeder.
