. Manual of operative veterinary surgery. Veterinary surgery. SECUEING SOLIPEDS. 23 ity with from two to four turns, and the remaining portion passed through the loOp, and the other, or longer portion of the rope, drawn taut, the knot is tied and the plate-longe thus firmly secured. As in the two previous methods, by drawing upon the longer end of the rope the foot can readily be raised and held ia position, either with or without the hobble. There are occasions, when, although it may not be required to have the leg and foot held up for the purposes of the opera- tion, it stUl becomes necessary to do so in order to prevent the animal from usiag his feet as weapons of combat, or to restrain him from motion. The plate-longe, and the single or double side-line, with one or two hobbles, are then put in use, for the purpose of either raising the leg from the ground and compelling the animal to stand on three, or again to prevent motion in the posterior biped. For example, in one case the flat part of the plate-longe is.
