In some parts of the Sahara green food is never given ; frequent watering is recommended by all Arab horse- men.
An Arab of the Arbaa tribe orave General Daumas full particulars of a ride he once undertook to save a highly prized mare from the hands of the Turks. In twenty-four hours he rode her eighty leagues, and during the journey she obtained nothing to eat but leaves of the dwarf palm, and was watered once.
More directly bearing on our present enquiry are the particulars furnished by Colon...el Duringer of the weights carried in most of the expeditions by the horses of the Chasseurs d'Afrique. These details were ascertained by the Colonel at the moment of departure of a column : — Horseman, i8o 24 lbs.; equipment, 53 lbs.; pressed hay for five days, 55 lbs. ; barley for same period, 44 lbs.
The man's own provisions brought up the total burden to about 350 lbs. English = 25 stone ! Daily consumption of hay and grain would reduce this colossal burden gradually ; but the horse would never carry less than 16 stone 9 lbs.
