Animal castration : a book for the use of students and practitioners . Fig. 2—Williams Stiff Handle Anseptic Castrating Knife. 2. Emascnlatoi-—The only <tther instrument necessary is anemasculator for the purpose of crushing the spermatic coid insuch manner as to assist nature in controlling hemorrhage. There are many designs of emasculators on the American mar-ket; however, many of them are inferior and unsatisfactory bothin design and workmanship. In order for an emasculator toperform the task for which it is intended it must first of all beconstructed with straight cutting and crimping edges. (See D, C,. 3—A Perfectly .Made and Well De- Fig. 1—An Imiierfectly Made and Badlysigned Rlmasciilator. Designed Emasculator. Fig. 3.) This simply means that the lower or female jaw mustbe on a straight line. When thus constructed the cord is graspedand crushed before it is severed. Any emasculator made withcurved cutting and crim])ing edges (see A, B, Fig. 4), which Animal Castration 17 means that the lower or female jaw is on a curved line, is notdependable in controlling hemorrhage, hence is unsafe and un-satisfactory. Fig. 5 illustrates an emasculator of proper designand good construction.
