Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. This book is intended to present to students Of live stock husbandry the same systematic and complete study of the horse that has been accorded the other classes of live stock. Works on the horse are legion, and many of them excellent, but the majority of writers View the proposition from an angle which does not comprehend the student's requirements so fully as is attempted here. The author duly acknowledges much valuable information gleaned from the current literature on the subject, while he claims no authority but assumes entire responsibility for the accuracy of much that is said. He deeply appreciates the counsel and assistance Of a wide acquaintance of practical horsemen in acquiring the fund Of horse lore from which the material, here with presented, is drawn. Sectionalism and partiality to special classes or breeds have been avoided. Emphasis has been laid upon the practical Side of horse husbandry. Students as well as horse breeders have been kept in mind while preparing this book. It is hoped that short-course students and college students will alike be able to use the text to advantage. The grouping of the chapters into four parts should aid in rapid reference and student work.
