FEEDING HoRsEs.-The practice of regulat-
ing the fsod OF horses by the amount of work
they are required to perform, is good one,
if properly followed. For example. horse
when lying comparatively idle, AS in winter,
should have less solid food than amid the
hard work of spring and summer. Again, if
a horse is about to be put to work of extra
labor it is well to fortify him for it by little
extra feeding beforehand. But the mistake
we refer to is the practice of over-teeding him
an hour or 80 before putting him to work. If
an extra service is required of the horse. on
any particular day, and an extracted is given
to him, have it in the evening beforehand,
rather than in the morning an hour or two
before being put to work. Why so? Because
if he is put to work soon after eating his food
does not become digested and he is obliged
to carry about with him mass of undigested
fodder, which is rather burden than help
to him. If he is well fed the evening before.
the food is ssimilated-changed to flesh and
blood-and sends health and vigor through
all the system As general rule. working
horse should be fed regularly, both as to the
time and the amount
