can a feeding chart be obtained:

Answer: If it We're not tor ITS belhS Il
little dusty your hay would be the Ideal
hay for the horses and as you wet IL
YOU obviute the trouble III measure.
BY far too many farmers feed tco much
hay TO their horses. What hay morse
will eat in an hour is enough for Well
grain fed horse AS there IS such dl1-
ference in the individuality of horses 1t
is not possible for any one to say just
how much grain should be fed to horses
of the same weight, as some require
more than others Again the class of
work. whether slow or fast, farm work
or road work, makes a difference. And
still again some horses cannot digest
corn, or cornmeal. while others Will eat
it with a relish and their stomachs Will
we'll digest it. But as a rule all horses
like oats and oats furnish more nerve
and muscle than any other gram foOa OF
the same weight and consequently are
the best of all the grain foods as basis
for horse feeding.
Iwould therefore say, if these LOO
pound horses are to be used every DAY
at moderate work on the farm or road,
a feed morning and night OF what nay
| they will eat in an hour and four "narts
| of good sound oats will furnish as good
| a ration as any that can be compounded.
! At noon make the oats five quarts. and
when Sunday comes, or an idle day or
days. feed but three quarts OF the oats
morning and night. A horse with good
teeth can do all the grinding OF oats
that is necessary to make them enter
the stomach in proper shape for digest
ing. But as some horses "hog' them
down without proper chewing, 1t may
he advisable to grind them or to make
a large fat bottom feed box, SO they
will be compelled to eat them more
slowly, or several round stones can be
put in the feed box, thus compelling
them to pick up the oats in small mouth
fuls. Some farmers feed largely OF corn
meal or corn to their horses and they
GET fat upon it. But while corn makes
them fat, it does not make muscle nerve
and strength like oats, and the corn fed
morse. even if it agrees with him, can
not work or drive with the oat fed one
That is principally the reason why the
western horse that has been corn fec
does not command the price of thos'
that have been fed oats and wheat bran
