ADVICE TO YOUNG FARMERS.

The HoRsE-Ho,o to kno,o his Age,-Ths
age of horse, it is sufficiently well known,
is only determinable by precision by his eetll;
and that rule fails after certain period, and is
sometimes equiv0ca and uncertain even with
in that period. A horse has forty teeth: namely,
twenty-four double teeth or grinders. toi tush-
es, or single teeth, and twelve front teeth, or
gatherers. Mares have no tushes in general
The mark, which discovers their age, is to be
found in the front teeth, uext the tushes. In
few weeks, with some, the foas twelve fore
teeth begin to shoot these are short, round,
white and easily distinguisable from the adult
or horses teeth with which they come after
wards to be mixed. At some period, between
two and three years old, the colt changes his
teeth, that is to say, he sheds the four middle
fore teeth, two above and Two below, which are
sometimes after, replaced with horse teetiI,-
After three years old, two, others are changed,
one on each side the former he has then eight
colts and four horse teeth one on each side
those last replaced; and has a, that age, eight
horses and four foal's teeth. Those last new
teeth are slow growers, compared with the pre-
eeeding; they are the corner teeth next the
tushes, are called pincers. and are those which
bear the mark This mark consists in the tooth
being hollow. and in the cavity bearing black
spot, resembling the eye Of a bean. The tush-
es may then be felt. At four years and half
old these mark teeth are just visible above the
gum, and the cavity is very conspicuous, At
five wears old, the horse has shed his remain
ing four colts teeth, and his tushes appear
AT six, his tushes appear, white, small, and
sharp, near about which is observable n small
circle ofyoung growing flesh: the horses mouth
is now complete, and tie black mark has ar
rived at, or very near the upper extremity of
the corner teeth. AT seven the two middle
teeth fill up. Between the seventh and eighth
year, all the teeth are filled up, the black mark
has vanished, and the horse is then said to be
aged, and his mouth full.
From that time forward, the age ofthe horse
can only be guessed at from cerlainindications,
but these guesses are usually made with con-
siderable accuracy by experienced people. If
his teeth shut close, and meet even, are toerably
white, not very long, and his gums appear
plump, you may conclude that he is not yet
nine wears old At that age and as he advan-
ces, his teeth become yellow and foul, and ap-
pearto lengtllcn, from the shrinking and rece-
ding Of the gums. The tushes are blunt mine,
but at ten Years old the cavity or channel ON the
inside in the upper tushes. until that periodic
be felt by the finger, are entirely filled up. At
eleven, the teeth will be very long, black and
foul, but will generally meet even; at twelve,
his upper Jaw teeth will oyerhang the nsther at
