MAKES A PLEA IN
BEHALFJF HORSES
Editor, the News: ""Show me the
laws of a Etate for the prevention of
cruelty to animals and in turn win
give you a correct estimate f the re
finement, enlightenment, integrity and
equity of that commonwealth's peo
ple." Among the many complaints to the
Humane Society is one oft repeated,
which it would seem that a common-
sense, not to say humane policy
should render unnecessary. I refer to
the complaints regarding the under
feeding and overworking. ' It must be
evident to even the most careless of
owners, that a horse cannot do good
work for any continued length of time
without the proper amount of food at
proper (intervals; and we must not
forget that the horse has compara
tively a small stomach and requires
therefor a greater time for eating.
This fact must also be taken into con
sideration, that a ctrtain amount of
food is required to keep an animal
warm, therefor, the warmer the win
ter quarters, the lets food required
A horse or cow in a cold drafty stable
is going to need more food than one
in more comfortable quarters. A blank
et adds greaily to their comfort and
efficiency. A cow, cold or underfed
is not going to give the largest pos
sible quantity of milk. This does not
mean an expensive woolen blanket
Some old sacks with a Uiin layer of
newspapers tacked between adds
grea'ly to their comfort and to that
extent lowers the feed bill.
A well disposed woman recently said
"If my horse was very hungry It would
neigh and let me know." But as a
matter of fact, It is not the abused
and half-starved horse that whinnies
and restlessly stmps when It hears
its master's step in the morning. It is
the horse whose manger has always
been well-filled, and has always re
ceived a pl"asiit word that listens for
the well known footstep, and greets
It with a nickor of delight.
This Soci ty is willing and anxious
to do all it can, but its funds are lini
lted, and it sometimes requires an ex
penditure of time and money to get at
the real facta of conditions reported,
and it is hoped that during the com
ing winter owners will make a decided
effort to see that the animals In their
care will be kept warm and comfort
able. The increased willingness and
efficiency will certainly more than re
pay the extra expense and care given
them.

Secretary Humane Society.
