If matter has already formed, it can bo detected by the somewhat soft and fluctuat- ing feeling of the abscess. If discovered while still a newjormation, take the horse from work, if possible; if not, take especial i)ains to protect the in- jured point or points from i)'e. A bruise at that point of the with- ers where the collar rests will not unlit a horse for the saddle, unless considerable inflammation and ex- tending soreness has already sot in; nor will a saddle bruise, farther back on the withers, necessarily un- fit him for harness. A recent swelling should be im- mediately treated with fomentations of bitter herbs.
