The proximal end fuses with the shaft at about three and one-half years, the distal at about (ine ami a half rears of age. THE RADIUS The radius is much tlie larger of the two bones of the forearm in the horse. It extends in a vertical direction from the elbow, where it articulates with the hum- erus, to the carpus. It is gently curved, the convexity being dorsal. It consists of a shaft and two extremities. The shaft (C\irpus radii) is curved in its lengtli, SDiiiewhat flattened from before backward, antl widened at its ends. It presents for description two surfaces and two borders. Tlic dorsal surface (Fades dorsalis) is smooth, slightly convex in its length, and rounded from siile to side. The volar surface (Fades volaris).
