hrst Is that the milk teeth are present In
the horses mouth until he IL between
and years old. The second fact II that
the mark" or dark central depression on
the surface OF the incisors. becomes grad
ually worn out. and In a horse over
years old has nearly always disappear
"a from the teeth OF the lower Jaw The
third fact is that the shape OF the tooth
IS much wider from side to side than II
is from 'front.' TO back. As the horse be-
comes older the surface becomes progress
sNeiy narrower. from side TO side and
mus instead OF remaining always OBJ
ions, II becomes triangular. and then in
very old animals nattened from side 10
side.
In young horses then we judge the age
by observing which OF the milk teeth
arc present, and which have been re-
placed by permanent ones To dis
tnguish between the milk teeth and the
permanent, remember that the milk teeth
are smaller. whittier, and have a distinct
neck. Until a colt is over 2 years old
his teeth are all milk teeth. and the age
is estimated from the amount OF wear
shown on the crowns OF the teeth. Be
tween 2 and the first Of the per-
manent teeth make their appearance,
and push out the middle two teeth In
upper and lower jaws horse is said
10 be 3 years old when these central
permanent incsors are fully In wear
During the next summer the second pair
| OF permanent teeth appear. and when
I they are fully grown and in wear the
/ horse is years old. Between 4 and
! 5 the last pair makes its appearance. and
/ now the horse has what Is called a fun
I mouth. So far both mares and horses
| are alike. but at or near . years old the
CANNES, or "tushes," appear in the male
sex only. Up 10 the end Of this period
| the determination Of the age is n cOmpar-
| atively easy matter, and any one who
| is at all Observant Can readily give the
! age of horses by looking at their teeth.
| After a full mouth is attained il is a
| more difficult matter, and the difficulty
| Of accurately telling the age OF old horses
Is greater in proportion to their age. So
| much is this the case that it Is popularity
supposed that IL is impossible to tell
\ the age of horses after they are years
| old. This may be true to q great eX-
tent among the unframed and ineXpe-
| rienced but to an expert IL is not diff
cult TO tell the age up to Is years with
a fair degree Of accuracy. and after that
! age to approximate 1t within a couple OF
years To do this successfully requires
J much experience and a careful inspec-
ton of all the visible indications of age.
| To rely upon one only, such as the
mark" Is 70 court defeat. All should
be observed--the mark, the shape of the
teeth. their length, and the angle al
which they meet those of the other jaw.
