Nature very wisely provides q thicker and
more rapid growth of hair in the winter than
in the summer, and the disposition Of the hair
to assume bristly appearance in cold weather
however obnoxious to inical tastes, is nature s
own adjustment of covering, to ward off dan
ger from cold, and to keep healthy the pores
of the skin.
Grooms may rub IS much and as often as
they will but they should not find an excuse
for laziness in heavy and close blanketing.
Blankets Of coarse wool are the best, which
permit free circulation of air, and, If lin d
they should be lined with a porous cloth
