In THE SADDLE.

Why Southerners Excel in Horseman-
ship.
1t will be accepted as truism that the
man or people that does any given thing
the most constantly will be apt to excel
in that one thing. Apply this to the rid
ing of the Southerners. Now the climate
and soil, the thicker population, and more
Industrious habits of the Eastern and
Middle States produced excellent roads
at much earlier period than in the
South. In fact, there are few places
in the South today where the roads
can be called tolerable. Good roads are
wont to be followed by wheeled transpor-
tation; poor roads force people to cling to
the saddle. When the Northern farmer
goes to the nearest town he drives, be-
cause the roads are good, and he can
carry his stuff to better advantage; the
Southerner rides, because the roads for q
great part of the year are impossible to
wheels. This breeds the universal habit
of horseback work. The same thing ap-
plies to women. To visit their neighbors,
village, the women must make use OF
the saddle. This necessity OF the coun-
try, where the roads are bad, becomes the
habit of the city, where the roads are bet
ter. The Soutnerner has been In the sad
die constantly for many generations, and
in pasture with only stick to guide
them In the North these conditions and
habits ceased long ago. Riding is a mere
fashion of very recent origin, though IL
has acquired such an impetus that 1t may
have come to stay.
The Southern seat is practically the
same as the truly military seat; and ex-
cept that the bride hand is wont to be
held trif1e too high, which is habit
caught from the high pommel or roll of
blankets or other baggage in front of the
soldier, this seat, when not exaggerated,
is, all things considered. the best for road
riding, and perhaps would enable man
to do greater number of things in the
saddle than any other one style. And
though the English pigskin is perhaps a
neater and more available rig, the South
erner is, in gaits, style and knowledge of
road work. by far the best model for us
to copy, as his saddle beast is the best for
us to buy.Hdrper's Mdqdzine.
