Pleads for Horses
In Season of Torture

TO the Editor OF The Star:
Hot weather is here and suffering Of
work animals, accordingly, increased.
Sore backs get sorer, necks get rawer
and cuts in the corners OF the mouth
and under the backpads get deeper.
Owners get sleepier, and drivers fail to
notice the tossing head and frowning
ears of the voiceless creature trying to
tell Its woe.
Horses are tortured by the check
rein, for there still exists the false no.
ton that this greatest source of misery
for horses Is necessary for the control
of the animals; this torture has been
responsible for innumerable runaWays
and loss of life. Checkreins should be
discarded or the straps heightened until
no cutting of the mouth can take place.
The pain caused by an iron bit saving
into raw flesh day after day viii weaken
the heart, until blind staggers occurs or
the horse will be overcome by heat.
Too small brides help to cut the
mouth.
Too small collars are a source of suf-
ferinR, like q tight shoe on the human
foot. The writer has noted that some
tWish there were more) business men
keep a breast collar and pass 1T around
among their work horses as the necks
become sore. Why not use these hui
name collars In the frat place and pre-
vent the necks from becoming sore? In
Italy all horses are driven with breast
collars, which enable the animals to
stand up better under the immense
loads and busy whips. In Holland
breast collars are universally used; these
thrifty people cannot afford tv waste
their money and horse flesh with hame
collars. AS an instrument Of torture.
the backpad with it's iron rivets and
stiff leather, Is good second to the
hame collar.

The Anticipated Motor Cycle.

Modern conditions seem destined to
relegate the motor cycle to the limbo
Of the horse rs an instrument in
enforcing the law. These modern con-
ditions cell for hot pursuit through
crowded streets of criminals In fast
automobiles; possibly following them
through dense screens Of acrid smoke
and all too often exchanging. with the
pursued, sslvos Of revolver shots. AS
long as such conditions continue, and
they show no immediate signs Of abate-
ment, the policeman on a motor cycle
is handicapped from the start and
courts sudden death at every turn.
The Board Of Police Surgeons calls
attention TO- the growing list OF casual
ties among the motor cycle squad and
suggests the gradual replacement Of
motor cycles with light automobiles.
The casualties are not only caused by
accident, but result from organic dis
turbances traced TO the shock and
strain OF riding a motor cycle. Under
q plan now being studied by the Police
Department. motor cycles would be

New Elevator Regulate

The plan under considerat ton at the
District Building to draft special ele-
vstor regulations, separate and distinct
from the building code, probably offers
the best way out Of the rather ridicu-
lous tansle brought about by the Po-
lice Court decision holding the eie-
vstor regulations to be invalid. But
one tanele leads to another and this
csse is no exception. The Police Court
decision was founded on the contention
that the building code does not apply
tn Government-owned buildings, and
that elevator regulations, drawn under
the building code. therefore discrimi-
nate against the private building owner
in favor OF the Government. Juds
&chuldt pointed out, however, tn;
Congress, more than forty years agt
gave the Commissioners specific au
thority to draw up regulations govern
ing the safe operation Of All elevators

It Is not at all difficult for one to

When plants begin to look extremely

When grass develops large brown

There is no more satisfactory. garden
