Why Horses Eat Dirt and How to Prevent It
A NY Tribune correspondent asks about dirt-eating in horses and Prof Law explains acidity in the stomach as the cause. He recommends better digestion through toned stomach, regular moderate feeding of sound grain and hay, avoidance of postmeal exertion, regular water, small roots, occasional chalk, salt in feed, and a tonic regimen including oxide of iron calcined magnesia powdered nux vomica fennel seed. He notes mineral deficiencies from poor soils can also cause the habit.
