Excerpt from Animal Castration: A Book for the Use of Students and Practitioners To those entrusted with the onerous task of castrating and spaying domestic animals the seantncss of modern literature- especially that printed in English and by American authors - dealing with the subject must have always proved a matter of considerable embarrassment. This universally recognized lack of a well illustrated book on the important subject of unsexing animals has induced the author to write and publish this volume. It is offered with the desire and hope that it will-in a measure at least-close this wide gap in our English speaking literature. Twenty-one years' actual and active experience in city and rural practice as well as several years as a teacher of this par-ticular subject leads me to believe that a text-book well illustrated, written by an American, based on American methods, will lie acceptable to the student and practitioner who really has a desire to become proficient in performing the operations of castration and spaying. The illustrations and text are for the most part original. The methods described are those employed in actual cvery-dav practice by the author. In presenting this volume to the indulgence of veterinarians the author's only regret is that during its preparation be was State Veterinarian of Tennessee, and did not have the time at his disposal to insure the best authorship results. Hence he is constrained to appeal for lenient judgment and criticism on the book prepared under no common stress of duties-administrative, professional, social and political.
