AGS ON THE HORSE.
To raise a REED of the above description, for sale, would pay exceedingly w ell, beyond all pees To breed a good horse, costs no more, except of skil than to br ad a bad one:—but what a di paca it: the market-price! Carr-coLts are ready for sale very early, as every one knows. CoACH-HORSES may be made from mares we the species just de- scribed, covered by rong racer or hunter, or wice versa. Should a ee ecine to breed chap- mens horses, or hacks, for sale, he will succeed best, by chusing both mare and horse of the fashion- able hackney ind: that is to say, each having some blood; it is preferable to his having recourse to a thorough-bred horse, for reasons I have not room to detail. Breed them with light heads, well set on; good feet and even, close before, wide bchind; plenty of bone under the knee, and high, deep, and slanting shou: ders; deep in the girth, handsomeli ly rounded in the bar- rel, and on the uaebont 3. straight in the back, but the waist long enough to gwwe speed, san the loins and fillets strong tn proportion Sia level with the back-bone. In- feo of breeding, a farmer, who desires to profit by this kind of stock, may always find colts and fil- lics enough for his money.
Let no man put his Mare to a HorsE, that has,. the same day, covered a great many, or is known to have lately had too: much work. This piece of good old advice, I well knew is generally laughed at, but surely common-sense W ill make it p! ain, that there is a point, beyond w hich the animal powers cannot successfully go, in this case, as well as all
others: the ricketty foals, that I have so often seen, fo me; clearly prove the position.
