KEEPING HORSES FEET AND LEGS IN Or
DER.-If / were asked to account for my
horses legs and feet being in better order than
those of my neighbOr, should attribute it to
the four following circums tances: First, they
are all shod with few nails, so placed in tht
shoe as to permit the foot TO expand every time
they move; second, that they all live in boxes
ins stead of stalls, and can move whenever they
please; third, that they have two hours daily
walking exercise when they are not at work
and fourth, that l have not head stall or
track-chain in my stall. These four circum-
stances comprehend the whole mystery of
keeping Aorses' legs fine, and their feet in
sound working condition up to good old
age.-lIttsS.

entitled Immediately after he was born, and
which have been accommodating with interest
from that time, and this fund will go on in-
creasing until he, as other subjects OF the
