ficially warmed. The employment of any means that pre- vents a horse from quenching his thirst, or at least renders water more or less distasteful to him, can hardly fail to be prejudicial to his health to say nothing of the cruelty. A practice which can fulfil no good end, and which is liable to do harm, should not receive our encouragement. QUANTITY OF DRINKING WATER REQUIRED DAILY BY HORSES. Some animals, such as sheep, goats, rabbits, and hares, will drink little or no water while subsistin...g on green food, because they perspire only to a slight degree (Colin). The skin of horses, on the contrary, is very active, and therefore they need a comparatively large supply of water. The necessary quantity is, however, subject to wide variations, which are influenced chiefly by the nature of the forage and the activity of the skin, lungs, and kidneys. The fact that grass contains about 80 per cent, of water, and the ordinary food of stabled horses only about 25 per cent, is sufficient to show the effect of diet on the amount of water which is needed.
