It is impossible to state accurately how much will be required to dress the horse--the disease, the coat, and the size vary so materially in different animals. About one pint and a half is, however, the general quantity employed for one application; every portion of the coat must be saturated, and in that condition the animal should be left till two clear days have expired. Thus, supposing the liniment to be used upon a Monday, it is left on until the following Thursday. Then have the surface washed with soft soap and warm water; dry the body and allow the animal to stand in a warm spot as before, so that every portion of moisture may evaporate. Afterward employ the whisk as has been previously directed; subsequently repeat the anointing. That operation must be again gone through for the third and last time after two clear days have once more expired, when the disease ought to be cured; all the insects should have perished, and the skin have been benefited by the stimulation to which it has been subjected. There are many preparations employed to cure mange. All have some repute, though all (save that already given) are attended with some danger. The author, however, will recite two, at the same time warning the reader that neither of those which follow can be sincerely recommended. _Ointment for Mange._ Strong mercurial ointment Three ounces. Soft soap One pound and a half. Mix. _Wash for Mange._ Corrosive sublimate One drachm. Spirits of wine One ounce. Tobacco (made into an infusion) One ounce. Hot water (which is to be poured into the tobacco) One quart. Dissolve the corrosive sublimate in the spirits of wine. Soak the tobacco in the boiling water. When cold, mix.
