. The standard horse book, comprising the taming, controlling and education of unbroken and vicious horses. ed the slightest lameness, or evenweakness, in that leg. Castration. The following article was, by specialrequest, written by Dr. Chas. A. Meyer,who is an expert of the very highestorder in the performance of this opera-tion :— Castration by the LatestMethod. Advances and progress have been made in allbranches of the sciences and arts, and the art andscience of surgery has been one of them. The nature, temperament, and dis-position of the horse is better understood, and the educated veterinarian oftenlisks his life for the benefit of stock raisers. We will, therefore, speak of the mostimproved method of castrating the stallion, as it is now, and will in the future, beperformed with more ease and success. The old method of castrating the stallion,which so often injured the animal by breaking his back, injuring his limbs, sprain-ing his muscles, and frequently disabling him for life, is now prevented. Themethod as now performed is to castrate the animal standing. Using no ropes to tie. Fig. 929—Form of Bar and ShoeUsed by French Veterinarians.
