(Sisson, Anatomy of Domestic Animals.) In the following classification of the chief muscles of the fore limb of the horse, which is given to illustrate the general arrange- ment of muscles, the names are those given preference in Sisson's "Anatomy of the Domestic Animals:" Flexor Muscles of the Elbow: 1. Biceps brachii. 2. Brachialis. Flexor Muscles of the Carpus: 1. Flexor carpi radialis. 2. Flexor carpi ulnaris. 3. "Ulnaris lateralis. Flexor Muscles of the Digit: 1. Superficial digital flexor. 2. Deep digital flexor. Extensor Muscles of the Elbou): 1. Tensor fasciae antibrachii. 2. Triceps brachii. 3. Anconeus. Extensor Muscles of the Carpus: 1. Extensor carpi radialis. 2. Extensor carpi obliquus. Extensor Muscles of the Digit: 1. Common digital extensor. 2. Lateral digital extensor. In addition to these muscles of the fore limb, attention is called particularly to the heavy muscles of the haunch and thigh, where the propelling power lies. Notice is also directed to the relation beween the development of these muscles and the conformation of the animal's 1 Those who wish to go into this subject more fully are referred to text- books on veterinary anatomy.
