Now for a year he studies raw
meats He learns how to select them
and how to cut them up. He can tell

Sal-meadow mutton from the false.
| Along with this raw meat course also
goes study Of fish and Of game and Of

"A horse is a valuable asset, and
should receive the best care possible
He should be we'll fed, comfortably
stabbed, carefully groomed and clipped
in the early spring. If he receives
these attentions he will work well and
improve in value. A horse lives under
artificial conditions. In his wild state
he required none of these attentions
for he was able to look out for himself
The domesticated animal, being worked
under conditions that are in themselves
artificial, must be kept in condition for
such work.
The clipping of a horse in the early
spring Is now conceded by all the lead
Ing veterinarians to be as essential to
horses well being as shoeing him or
giving him a comfortable bed to lie on.
Farmers in England and France have
been clipping their horses for many
years, and American farmers are not
slow to realize Its advantages. A
clipped horse dries out rapidly after a
Z hard days work, and will rest comfort
ably and be refreshed for the work the
following day. An uncllpped horse is
liable to catch the heaves, pneumonia
and all sorts of colds, rheumatism, etc
More especially is this so in the early
spring, when his hair is long and he
Is soft" If worked hard he will per-
splre freely and the moisture will be
held by his long hair, and the food that
should 60 to nourIsh him will be used
TO replenish the heat that is being CON
stantly taken from his body by the
mass of cold wet hair. If clipped, the
perspiration will evsporate almost as
soon as secreted, and when put in the
stable he rests comfortably and his
food does him good.
Some years ago Buffalo street car
company tested the value Of clipping
in the following manner: They owned
500 horses, and $50 of these were
clipped early In the spring and 250
were not clipped. A careful record was
kept of results, and it was found that
Of the $50 unclipped horses 1913 were
afflicted with coughs and pneumonia,
while of the $50 clipped not one case
of sickness was reported.
A man would not expect to enjoy
very good health il he did hard manual
work clothed with heavy underwear,
heavy suit and a fur overcoat, and
after perspiring freely, as he naturally
would, go to sleep without removing
same. 1t is just as ridiculous to expect
a horse to be in perfect health II
worked under the same conditions.
If you would get the best returns
from your investment in your horse,
treat him right, and be sure and clip
him in the early spring.
