Gruelty to Horses
Every now and the a we notice stand
l;ig on tlie street a horse reined up
tightlv, with an overdraw oases: -rein.
This holds tbe horse's neck aud bead
In . a very onoomfortable position.
There he stands, perhaps boors, hold
ing his bead first on oae aide, t ion ths
trylZ, U. ...T uou iruin toe -needleesly
orael position la which he
ieheld.
Perhaps the owner is Inside doing
some b a tineas. Maybe amokiog or
drinking. Foailbly preaching a ser
mon or' attending a prayer meeting.
But whatever be le doing be has allow
ed bimaelf to be thoughtlessly very
orael to hie horse.
We always feel like unreining sack
a horse. Sometimes we really do so.
It may be Uking liberties with other
people's property, but the the end jua
tiflee the mesne.
A horse ought to be reined up when
hitched on the street. Otherwise, he
ia liable to put bis head down, trying
to reach things on tbe ground, and he
may get bis loot over the reins or lines
and tangle himself up, to hie Injury.
Therefore, a horse ought to be reined
up, so as to keep him from putting
his nose to the ground. But be ought
to be reined loosely.
The overdra ia a" good precaution
, egeinst runaways, and when properly
' r!fifAt i tha horaa'a a ,mfart It is
not condemned, Bute tight overdraw
that compels tbe poor horse to bold his
head high and atlok hia nose out, ie
barbarous. Ex.
