A gentleman of the city who has a
tender place in his heart for the
dumb animals suggests that the
horsemsn put the new kind of hats
on their horses. The hat is small
concern which fits ever the top OF
the head and having n wet sponge in
the crown keeps the horses head
cool. Some of the horsemen have
adopted these hats, but very few so
far. It is great relief to the
animals and in some cities they are
used extensively.
