ENDURANCE OF THE HORSE

What is a fair days work for horsef

to answer. The London bus horse does
eighteen miles day at a rate OF seven
miles an hour in double harness with
q four ton bus pair of post horses used
TO do twenty-six miles with a one ton
coach at eight miles going and at six re-
turning.
.'I have known the horses in the heavy
deer van of H. NJ. Buckhounds to do over
eighty miles in a day" says a writer in
Country ! ife in America. but they were
never worked more than twice a week.
A good horse will trot his twenty to
thirty miles day for several days con-
secutively. but cannot keep it up; he
may do sixty miles in one day, but then
must have a rest the next.

stances OF the powers of ponies are given
