Bleeding from the Neck Vein. union of the jugular vein at the angle of the jaw. (See cut.;The fleam is put in a direct line with the vein at the center,when it is to be hit sharply with a stick. Seethat the fleam is large, sharp and clean, for ifrusty or dull, inflammation of the vein mightresult. It is of great importance that theblood be drawn quickly. When sufficientblood has been taken, the edges of the woundshould be brought closely together, and kepttogether by a small sharp pin being passedthrough them. Around this a little tow or afew hairs from the mane of the horse shouldbe wrapped, so as to cover the whole of theincision, and the head of the horse should betied up for several hours, to prevent his rub-bing the part against the mang^. When thebleeding is to be repeated, if more than threeor four hours have elapsed, it will be morepiudent to make a fresh incision, rather than to open theold wound.
