Sleighing Slays Horses

There is no service to which a horse can be put that wears him out so quick as drawing a sleigh. He is used to the resistance of a buggy’s weight, and when he finds that he has nothing, so to sneak, behind him, he runs through .himself. People suppose that because a livery mar charges f 5 an hour for a sleigh during the few days of the sleighing season, that ne is paying himself for the storage of the cutter during the rest of the year. That is not the case. I would rather have a horse of mine driven to a buggy over the roads for six hours than to have him pull a sleigh for an hour. ____________ Do net ’et prejudire kil' yen!
