The following remarks Of a skillful Praetiu-
.ouerand close observer, are worthy OF auenuon
DIR. Dadd has been, however, more uniformly
fortunate in the horses which have passed
before his eyes, than some others. Horses are
often overfed with grain, but we never knew
one to eat too much hay or grass, when
was supplied regularly. They are rarely at
tackled With disease. when little or no grain is
given them; or if given, when supplied IN
small and regular quantities.
The most frequent causes Of disease, are high
and irregular feeding. hard and irregular wOr-
king, and exposure and water when warm by
exercise.
A great portion Of our horses are too well
fed-obtain more food than they require. In
this land Of plenty must of our paiuaue horses
are over fed, and more especially does this hap
pen among animals owned BY wealthy and lib
eral individuals. The Impression we wish to
, convey to The mind Of the reader il, that the
! food as such, is not prOportioned to labor-in
other words, there exist a disproportiOu be-
tween the amount OF carbon taken in the fern
of food, and the OXYGEN received in the pro
cess of respiration. Now to illustrate this, vi
F." will suppose that man engaged in mercan
tile pursuits owns one or more horses; be ha
mot the time or inclination, to.give the one o
- the other the necessary amount OF exercise
,. they stand up to a full crib, from day to day
enjoying, or rather, gorging themselves with
ID certain amount Of fodder, over and above wha
they actually require, and more than they II
need, the surplus is often stored up
+, the form of fat, and this induces acute diseasl
and they die Of too much food and care. II
very rare that we have occasion to recommer
30, a man to feed his horsessmOre literally, but al
" most all ways the reverse. Starvation is! sa
to to be the cause for many equine disease
:, but so far as Our experience goes, such cast
are. in this country, very rare. We concei'
the term s~taruatian to be a libel upon civiliz
ton; and so mftequentts its application amou
a nation Of husbandmen, that tits omitted in o.
y, dictionaries. A man on n barren rock, or
IKE
horse on the deserts of Arabia. might prob
bly, ttarve, but the idea of the latter STARRING
mo- the vicinity of a well stocked barn or stab
within striking distance Of a land of plen
uA-seems TO us a very absurd conclusion.
cts There are enough horses to be found dre'
ed up in the garb Of starvation having tg
lied skins, prominent ribs, and a cadaverous cou
vice %tenance. living, and yet half dead. But Ii
know nothing Of the Famine in Egypt" !h

year ago and coughed badly. Last fall we
commenced feeding on corn stalks, and coutin.
ued nearly all the past winter. To our great
satisfaction he has exhibited none Of the usu.
al symptoms of heaves-has not had a cough
that would be noticed, drives well aud breathes
without the least difficulty" Well cured
corn stalks, cut before frost bitten, are good

do about as well on them as On hay. Eor-
ss at all affected with the heaves will do bet
ter when fed upon them than clover hay A
great many horse owners have communicated
facts to differ agricultural papers going to show
that chopped straw, veto good timothy hay

heavy horse. Dusty hay, musly oats, expos
