A contributor TO the London Field
writes that swimming horses across u
flooded creek or river is n common and
on some stations almost daily occur
renee in Australia during the rainy
season. "As rule ! have remained
seated in the saddle while swimming
my horse across a flooded river he
says, "and have found the buovancy Of
the horse TO vary quite as much AS
that of human being. I have had
some horses which would swim with
the seat of the saddle clear above the
water. while others, on the contrary,
swan so deeply that only the ears,
cvcs md nose were visible. In the lat
ter ease the sooner the rider slips over
the tail the better. II you are not In
the saddle | do not think IL matters
much whether you swim NJ the horses
head or his tail. or on your back, breast
or side. OF coarse the nearer you are
to his head the better chance you have
OF guiding him If necessary, but as n
rule horses win swim as fast and as
straight as they can TO the nearest
landing point In the whole course OF
my experience | have seen but one
horse unable or unwilling to swim, and
on this occasion the horse turned on
his side Immediately II found itself in
deep water, AMI refusing TO make the
slightest effort Il was drowned. In my

when swimming any horse across n
stream Is to unbucklc your snai,,c rain,
