All horses and mules that have
done little or no work during the
winter should be prepared for the
severe strain of the hard spring work.
We do not expect a race-horse or an
athelete to do good work without
and the work horse is no
different in this respect. Begin to feed
a little more and gradually Increase the
feed and the work so as to have the
animals in better condition when the
very hard work comes in the spring.
Many an animal is made less efficient
for the whole season because with
muscles soft, long coat of hair, and
to a full ration he is put
to the hardest sort of work the first
warm days of spring, which are always
the most trying for man or beast
