The Worlds Smallest Horses.

According to the theory of a well
known horse breeder, the conditions
that would produce the smallest race of
horses are a mountainous country in a
very hot climate. In an article in the
May number of Leslies Monthly, one
of the most experienced horse breeders
of New England describes a race of
horses which he says he discovered had
been existing for many years on a
high plateau near the island of Hayti.
and tells his experiences III capturing
and transporting them to his home
farm III Rhode Island The photo
graphs that accompany this article are
unique among pictures of horses and
will be one Of the greatest interest to
every norseman and horse lover.
