SUGGESTION OF A LAW TO PREVENT THE SALE
OF ANIMALS SO MUTILATED.

OF ANIMALS SO MlIll-AlEb
There have been many suggestions o. methods 10
abate the reprehensibe practice Of docking horses
tails and other forms OF mutilation TO conform
with the so-caled fashionable horse fads. The
remedy is simple. II the managers of fairs, horse
shows and prize exhibitions for horses distribute
their prizes only horses who enter the show ring
as nature makes them and debar al locked or
mutila.e specimens from competing for The prizes
it would effectually prevent the barbarous treat
ment to which many horses subjected every
year in this city A law that would make II
misdemeanor 10 sell mutilated horse would prove
effective as the average horse-dealcr is humane
and he handles docked horses only when received
In exchange for horses who have not been
t.lated Moreover. ii Is only the alleged better
class of breeders that send horses to the market 20
be sold at pubic sale which mutilatcd to con-
firm with the fashion in vogue at the present time.
So that law preventing the sale, publicly
privately OF locked horses would soon end the
barbaroU9 custom OF docking horses tails.
OF course there stringent laws against the
practice but they are practically dead-leter laws;
hence. If the victims OF the lockers made UNI
salabe. the practice will cease.
