Excerpt from Veterinary Homœopathy in Its Application to the Horse: Including a Code of Common Suggestive Symptoms The object I have tried to keep before me while preparing this book, has been to furnish, in concise and, so far as possible, unconventional language, information that will enable those who have the charge of horses to discover what ails the animal when signs of illness or incapacity for work are observed; and further how to treat a patient under such conditions. I make no claim for the production of a scientific work; but I am attempting to cater to those who have no acquaintance either with medicine or disease but who at the same time are thrown upon their own resources when their equine charges fall ill. I am informed that over large districts of the United States of America, the services of a qualified Veterinary Surgeon are not available simply because there is not one resident within a reasonable distance; I hope that in such districts, especially, this book will prove of considerable service. It has been my aim to treat of common and oft-recurring ailments and in my descriptions I have sought to express myself in the everyday language of the stable. If in the opinion of some it should seem that I am chargeable with prolixity and that many phrases are oft repeated, I must ask one and all to remember that I am writing for the million, among many of whom, educational advantages may possibly not have been of the highest order; to make clear to such as these, the full meaning of all I desire to convey, has, as it seems to me, rendered the frequent repetition of phraseology an absolute necessity. Conventional terms appear much oftener than I could have desired, but to avoid these simply means to leave many ailments untouched; I have therefore sought to obviate the objection which may possibly be raised to their introduction by a very full index to which reference can always be made to insure a simpler understanding of the meaning.
