The forefinger of the right hand is then placed on the mouth, and this completely controls the flow of liquid through the tube. The end of the tube -nith the bone in it is then inserted well back in the dog's mouth, and the operator having full command over the contents of the drencher, by raising his forefinger from the mouth of the bottle, lets the medicine run fast or slow, as he sees the dog swallow, until the full dose has been given. This is better suited to giving thin, flowing liquids than the mucilaginous drench referred to, or even castor oil, which runs very slowly. Another simple yet effective way of giving liquid medicine to a dog is by means of the appliance shown at Fig. 3. As wiU be seen it consists of a cow's horn from which the top and bottom have been sawn. A finger is kept over the small opening while the dose is poured in the larger one, into which afterwards a cork is fitted. The horn can then be stood in any convenient spot until the dog is. Fig. 3.
