AGE OF YOUR HORSE
SHOULD INTEREST YOU
FOUR WAYS OF TELLING THE AGE
OF YOUR FAITHFUL ANIMAL
HELPERS.
COrtVALUS, Or., March 30. There
are four ways to tell the axe of a
horse, accordlnn to prof. B. L. Potter
of the Oregon Agricultural College:
by his teeth, by his ribs, by the flesh
on his tail, and by the skin on his
cheeks.
In a yojiflff "orse the cheek skin Is
soft and elastic, and (lies back quick
ly when raised; in an old one, It Is
llfidess and goes back but slowly.
Old horses apparently have a wider
and more distinct space between their
ribs than young; ones. And with age
the flesh on the tall of a horse shrinks,
making the Joints more distinct than
they are on a young horse.
Judging by the changes In the teeth
Is a more accurate method. The com
ing of the temporary teeth first, snd
then the permanent ones; the develop
ment to maturity; the change In shape
on account of wear; the coming of the
cups In the teeth, and their wearing
away afterward, and the change In the
angle of meeting of the teeth, from
straight together at five years to a
sharp angle at twenty; all these are
algns by which tha experienced horse
man can read accurately the age of a
horse.
"It must be remembered that the
permanent teeth, above and below,
come In at the same time," says Prof,
potter, "but that she cups above do
not wear away until all the cups below
are gone. It must also be remem
bered that the changea begin at the
center and continue at the rate of one
pslr a year; that a horse at maturity,
which Is at five years, has everything
that la, all his permanent teeth and
all the cups. If one remembers this
much, be has the whole thing In a nut
shell." -
