we can only impute the few attempts at it to te hi

dusry of our people would, under the inctemeut of
profit, speedily give all the necessary knowledge

requiring not only the usual portion OF toll and ey-

usual course of industry has hitherto rewarded Us

In a healthy horse the pulsations are
about Sc or 40 10 a minute, and may be
felt very distinctly either on the left
side, or in an artery which passes over
the lower jaw bone in short, pulsation
may be felt in every superficial artery.
When a horse appears rather dull,
and does not feel properly, it is advisa-
bic to examine the pulse, and if he be
found to exceed the standard of health
immediate recourse should be had TO
bleeding. BY this timely interference
many dangerous complaints may be pre-
vented. When the pulse rises to so in

Management Of Horses on a. Journey.
A horse ought 10 eat al least from
sixteen TO twenty quarts of oats pei
day, otherwise, he will not and canno
perform long journey. Clean frest
hay and little water, should be giyeI
as often as you stop.
Never trust 10 ostIers when YOU are
on journey. 1t is essentially neces-
sary thai you personally see to the
cleaning, watering, feeding, and litter
log of your horse, otherwise you will in
all probability soon be under the neces-
sity of hiring or purchasing another, or
abandoning your journey.
Should your horse lose his appetite,
give him an ounce of nitre in bran
mash once ort vice. This, with little
rest, will soon recover him.
Deane's New-England Farmer says,
"To fit a horse for journey, he
should not be suffered TO grow too fat
and gross. He should be kept in the
stable rather than in the pasture, and
fed mostly with provender; but rather
sparingly if inclined 10 be fat. He
should have exercise daily to harden
his flesh, and keep him in the habit Of
travelling. He should be shod some
days before he begins journey, thai
the shoes may be well settled to his feet
and the nails little rusted at the points,
that they hold the faster. And the pads
of the saddle should be well fitted to his
back so as to fill the hollows, and bear
equally on every part. And while he is
on journey he should be stabbed every
night. 1t is very destructive TO expose
horses TO the danpness and cold of the
night after severe exercise"
