X \\)\i\, i;)02, an article appeared in xho Boston Transcript Avhieh C^ 1 ir- >j/ advocated the holdiniz: in Boston of a woi'k horse })arade. This su<>- ^^{y ?^' ."♦^'•'^tion caught the eye of ^fr. 11. A. Lawrence, who had long <^ ^S) '^^^'•^i''^'*-^ to see such a parade established in Boston, and who was hd^^^rr-^^^' ianiiliar \yith the working of the London and Liverjxx)! cart horse l^arade societies. INfr. Lawrence called upon the writer of the Transcrijjt article, and it was agreed between them that an attempt should be made in this direction. Accordingl}' it was announced in the newspapers that a meetin<>- of all those interested in getting up a work horse parade in Boston, would be held at the Parker House, on May 1), 1902, and a large room capable of holding about one hundred per- sons was engaged. The attendance, however, was somewhat less than had been expected, being estimated at from four to six persons. The meeting was adjourned to ^lay 28tli, and in the meantime numerous printed circulars were sent out, statino- the object of the adjourned meeting. Upon this second occasion some eight or ten ^■-''^" persons, by actual count, were present, two or three of whom, however, mysteriously disappeared soon afterward, and, so far as the Association is informed, have never been seen since. However, a lieginning had been made, and sliortl}" afterward an association Avas - formed, with the following officers : — President R. A. Lawrence ; Secretary, PL C. ]\Iersvin ; Treasurer, Dr. Austin Peters ; Directors, Joshua AtAvood, od, R. K. Clarke, H. K. Lyman, Arthur Perrin, C. S. Rackemann. ]\lr. John H. Jewett of the Herald, and Mr. Frank G. Trott of the Globe, Avere elected honorary members. The intention AA'as to hold the parade on Labir Day, 1902, and as Mr. ^lerAvin Avas obliged to leave the city, Mr. R. Iv. Clarke took his place as Secretary. It Avas found, Iioav- cver, that the time Avas too short, and, moreover, the selection of Labor Day was i.^*^ disapproved by many teamsters. Accordingly the parade Avas postponed to ^Memorial Day, jNIay 80, 1903. Early in the spring, })repa)ations Avere begun, Mr. Clarke becoming Vice-President, Mr. INIerwin resuming his place as Secretary, and Mr. W. D. Quimby, a master truckman, being added to the list of directors. It Avas jSfr. Quiml)}' Avlio suggested the scheme of drivers' certificates, perhaps the most valuable feature of the parade, and certainly an improvement upon the English system. The conditions upon AA'hich these certificates are aAvarded Avill be found stated beloAv. The prospect \v:is disfourairina-, (■()iitril)ii(i<)iis at lirst cimic in slowly, and some HOOO printed circulars which had hccn sent tlnouiih the mail appeared to have gone into the waste basket unread. The Directors, however, were ojjtiniistic, and wdien the President of the Association deposited a thousand-dollar bond with the Treasurer as a 2"uaranty fund, they felt sure of ultimate success, (iradually, too, the owners of work-horses awoke to the situation, and when the entries (dosed, thev weic found to numlx'r four hundred and tift\-f()ur. The Association obtained in contributions the sum of $l,7i>(;.00, and as the run- ninir expenses were very slight, almost the Avhole of this sum was devoted to the parade. Over five hundred dollars were distributed in cash ])rizes, as follows: Fifty first prizes of four dollars each ; fifty second prizes of three dollars each ; fifty third prizes of two dollars each ; fift}' fouith prizes of one dollar each. Some special prizes were also awarded by the Association, one in particular to Old King Ooal, a famous black horse of great size and beauty, belonging to the Metropolitan Coal Oomi)any. King Coal, probably the best known hoi'sc in Boston, is the proud pos- sessor of eighteen blue riI)bons won b}' him at various horse show^s. He headed the procession, led b}' the negro teamster who for many years drove him and his mate. — ~^ In addition to the mone}^ })rizcs, libbo^ns, costing fifty cents apiece, were given with each i)rize, and also a di})l()ma foi- the owner. These diplomas, as web .t.. . certificates for the drivers entitled to them, were handsomely engraved on good l)a})er, and many of them have l)cen framed by the recipients. Four special prizes for the Truckmen's Class were also awarded through the generosity of the following donors: C. II. I)uck cVc Co., The Moffett ^'ehicle Bearing- Co., The Buidvcr Hill Carriage Co., Mr. P. McC^ill, Charlcstown. !^-" It is no exagiicration to say that the })arade was a trium})hant success, 'i'he pro- cession was about four miles long, and the greatest enthusiasm was shown, both b}' exhibitors and spectators. The drivers cared little or nothing for the money wdiich they received ; Avhat they wen; thinking of was the |)ossible honor to be bestowed u})on their horses, and indirectly, ujion themsidves ; and many of them, when they ap})roa(died the reviewing stand where the piizcs were awarded, \vere observed to be ])ale with apprehension. Roughly speaking, every other \\\'\\\ received a prize, and yet, as the officers of the Association found to their sorrow, many of the drivers were grievously disapjjointed at the failure of their horses to obtain a ribbon. It is the intention at the second parade to increase the num])er of prizes. In some cases interested persons thought that injustice had been don(>, ])ut in most, if not all of these cases, subse(|uent in(|uiry proved that the horse in (|uestion \\:\ '^'en dis(|ualified for some good I'eason, as that he was slightly lame, that his harness was ill-filtiiig, or for some other like cause. Exhibitors and the |)u])lie gen- erally are reiiiinded that the prizes of this Association arc awarded upon rules dif- ferent from those of the ordinary horse show. The instructions to the judircs on this point read as follows: "The prizes are to lie awarded, pruiKirlh/, for li'ood, hard, working condition, docile and gentle manners, showing that the horses have . ■! ,;indly treated, and for comfortable harnessing. If two or more single horses 1)1 .'tims of horses arc on a [)ar in this i-espect, fJien the judges shall award the prize i t'lo best horse or the best team." Under this rule, to state but one example, a i-y beautiful pair of horses were lightly excluded from receiving a prize at the I'.irade because their collars were too ^mall. If this principle upon which the i)rizes ire awarded is ke})t in mind, the Association believes that there will be ver}' little dissatisfaction ^vith the awards of th(> judges. The Chief Marshal of the parade was j\Ir. K. K. ("larke, and the Assistant ^Marshal, ]\Ir. Joshua Atwood, 3d. Dr. Peters, the head of the State Cattle Bureau, took charge of the Judges. These three gentlemen were well mounted, and presented that semi-inilitarj^ semi-sporting appearance which was proper to the occasion. The diplomas and certificates, the artistic excellence of which has been remarked by man}', were designed by Mr. Arthur Perrin. S6on after the first i)arade, the Association was incorporated under the laws of Massachusetts, this being done under the direction and at the expense of C. S. Racke- mann, Esq., upon whose legal and practical judgiuent the Association greatly relies. Mr. Jewett of the Boston Herald, and Mr. Smith, a leading meml^er of the Master Teamsters' Association, who now became directors, had contril)uted very nuich to the success of the first parade hy their intelligent and energetic assistance. The other new director, Dr. John W. Bartol, is a practicing physician, and a member of the State Board of Health. ^ It was the object of the parade to induce owners and drivers of work horses to take more pride in their appearance and more interest in their welfare ; and this ob- ject has been accoiuplished in great measure. The good effects of the parade have been lasting, for it is the testimony of veterinary surgeons, owners, drivers, horse- slioers, harness makers and various other persons in different parts of the city, that work horses, as a rule are better groomed and treated, and that harness is more neatly kept than was the case before the i)arade. That similar parades will ultimately be held in every large cit}^ in the country is the hope and expectation of the Boston Association. One such has already been held in Kansas City, Missouri, and others are projected for Baltimore, Washington, Buf- falo, and Toronto, Canada. THE FUTURE OF THE ASSOCIATION. As to the fiitiivc, although the uniin object of the Association is to organize an annual parade and competition, it will consider itself at liberty to use its funds for the relief of work horses in any proper and practicable manner. Especially does it hoi)e to i)r()cure better watering facilities in the streets, and more humane pavements ; to prevent the use of horses that are lame or otherwise unfit for lal)or ; to piovide or to assist others in providing a country home or place of rest, for horses temporarily disabled or exhausted. Beside what sums are obtained from the publication of advertisements in the catalogue, the Association has no receipts except gifts. 'I'he officers render their services, which in some cases are arduous, without any compensation ; and it is con- fidently expected that those citizens of Boston who love horses, and who derive pleasure or [)rofit from the use of them, will contribute according to their means. SECOND ANNUAL PARADE, MAY 30, 1904 PRIZES. HE number of prizes assigned to each class is stated in tlic catalogue at the head of each class, but this number may be decreased as cir- cumstances may require, and as the Judges determine. The })rizes will be awarded in sets of four prizes, namely, first, second, third and fourth. A ribbon goes with each prize as follows : — Blue with the first, Red with the second ; Yellow with the third ; White with the fourth. The money prizes will be given to the dri\ers. Diplomas for the owners will be awarded with each prize. In addition, certificates Avill be awarded to those drivers who are entitled to them as stated Ijelow. The money prizes and ribbons will be given at the reviewing stand. The di})lomas and certificates will be delivered by mail or otherwise after the parade. CERTIFICATES, Certificates will be awarded to those drivers who are designated in the catalogue, "Qualified for certificate," provided that in the opinion of the Judges, the horse or horses driven by them in the parade are serviceably sound, and in good flesh, con- dition and spirits, showing that the}^ have been well and gently handled. "Qualified for certificate" means certified by the owner to have driven the horse or team of horses shown in the parade for at least one year prior to the date of the entry. A horse shall be considered serviceably sound if he goes sound and breathes sound. A blind horse may be serviceably sound. INSTRUCTIONS TO JUDGES. The Judges are earnestly re(|uestcd to be at their stations promptly at eight o'clock, so that the judging can begin as soon as the horses arrive. This is essential to the complete success of the parade. It is the duty of the Judges to exclude from the parade any horse that is do'-k- tailed, or sick, lame, thin, or otherwise unfit for work; and also, unless the defect is ri'iiicdicd on tlic spot, any lioisc iini)roj)cily Ii;inicssc(l, or attiiclicd to a vehicle bt'ui'ini;' any temporary adNcrtisenient or deeoiation. The prizes are to be awarded })riiiiaril3' for good, hard, working eoiKlition, docile and gentle manners, showing that the horses have ])eeii kindly treated, and for com- fortable harnessing. If two or moi'e single horses or teams of horses are on a })ar in tiiis iesi)ect, then the Judges shall award the prize to the l)est horse or best team. Age is not to be considered at all, except that preference is to be given, other things being e(|nal, to the older horse. Color is not to be considered, even in respect to matched teams. The vehicle is not to be considered. Harnesses that are light, but strong enough to do the work recjuired of them, are to be })referred to heavier harnesses. This rule is to be observed especiall}' in respect to bridles and other parts, in which great strength is not needed. The value or beauty of the hanu'ss is not to be considered. If the Judges find it necessary, horses shall be driven at a walk or trot, for their insi)ection, as the Judges direct. If any disputed point arises, the Judges for the class shall decide it, and their decision shall be final, except that if the Judges so desire they may require the assistance of any two members of the Executive Committee, who, with the Judges, shall make the final decision. The Judges w^ill indicate on the Catalogue the numbers of the horses winning prizes, and the names of the drivers winning certificates, and will bring the cata- logiu's, so marked, to the revie wing-stand as soon as the judging is finished. They are recpicsted not to inform anybody of the result of the judging, except the person appointed to receive their report at the revie wing-stand. SPECIAL PRIZES. OLD HORSE CLASS.

JEWETT, Boston Herald ARTHUR PERRIX, Fisher Avenue, Brookline AV. D. QULMBY, (^ Merrimae Street J. H. SMITH, 571 Atlantic Avenue HISTORY OF THE ASSOCIATION. appeared in the Boston Transeript which ton of a work horse parade. This sug- ion caught the eye of Mr. K. A. Lawrence, who had long de- ' sired to see such a parade cstablislied in Boston, and who was familiar with the working of the London and Liverpool cart horse parade societies. ]Mr. Lawrence called upon the writer of the Transcript article, the present Secretary of the Association, and it was agreed between them that an attempt should be made hi this direction. Very few persons appeared to be interested in the i)roject, but after some de- lay an association was formed, with the following officers : — President, R. A. Law- rence ; Secretary, H. C. Merwin ; Treasurer, Dr. Austin Peters ; Directors, Joshua Atwood, 3d ; R. K. Clarke, H. K. Lyman, Arthur Perrin, C. S. Rackemann. Mr. John H. Jewett, of the Herald, and Mr. Frank G. Trott, of the Globe, were elected honorary members. The first intention was to hold the parade on Labor Day, 11)02. It was found, however, that the time was too short ; moreover, the selection of Labor Day was disapproved by many teamsters, and for these reasons the parade was postponed to Memorial Da}^ iSIay oO, 1903. Early in the spring, preparations were begun, Mr. Clarke becoming Vice-President, and Mr. AY. D. Quimby, a master truckman, being added to the list of directors. It was Mr. (^uimby Avho suggested the scheme of drivers* certificates, a valuable feature of the parade, and certainly an improvement upon the English system. The conditions ui)on which these certificates are awarded will be found stated Ixdow. The prospect was discouraging, contributions at first came in slowly, and some 3000 printed circulars which had been sent through the mail appeared to have gone into the waste basket unread. The Directors, however, were optimistic, and when the President of the Association de})().sited a thousand dollar bond with the Treas- urer as a guaranty fund, they felt sure of ultimate success. Gradually, too, the owners of work-horsos awoki' to the .situation, and when the entries closed they were found to number four hundred and fifty-four. The Association obtained in contributions the sum of $1,71)6.00, and as the running expenses were very slight, almost the whole of this sum was devoted to the parade. Over five hundred dollars were distributed in cash prizes, as follows : Fifty first i)rizes of four dollars each ; fifty second prizes of three dollars each ; fifty third prizes of two dollars each ; fifty fourth prizes of one dollar each. Some special prizes were also awarded by the Association, one in particular to Old King Coal, a famous black hoi-se of great size and beauty, belonging to the Metropolitan Coal Company. King Coal, probably the best known horse in Boston, is the proud possessor of eighteen blue ribbons won by him at various horse shows. He headed the procession, led by the negro teamster who for many years drove him and liis mate. In addition to the money prizes, ribbons, costing fift\' cents apiece, were given with each prize, and also a diploma for the owner. These diplomas, as well as the certificates for the drivers entitled to them, were handsomely engraved on good paper, and many of them have been framed by the recipients. It is no exaggeration to say that the parade was a triumphant success. The procession was about four miles long, and the greatest enthusiasm was shown, both by exhibitors and spectators. The drivers cared little or nothing for the money which they received ; Avhat they were thinking of was the possible honor to be bestowed upon their horses, and indirectly upon themselves ; and many of them, when they approached the reviewing stand where the prizes were awarded, were observed to be pale with apprehension. Roughly speaking every other man re- ceived a prize, and yet, as the officers of the Association found to their sorrow, many of the drivers were grievously disappointed at the failure of their horses to obtain a ribbon. The Chief Marshal of the })arade was Mr. R. K. Clarke, and the Assistant Marshal, Mr. Joshua Atwood, od. Dr. Peters, the head of the State Cattle Bureau took charge of the Judges. These three gentlemen were well mounted, and })re- sented that semi-militarj^ semi-sporting appearance which was proper to the occasion. The diplomas and certificates, the artistic excellence of which has been remarked by many, were designed by Mr. Arthur Perrin. Soon after the first parade, the Association was incorporated under the laws of Massachusetts, this being done under the direction and at the expense of C. S. Racke- mann, Esq., upon whose legal and practical judgment the Association greatly 4 relies. Mr. Jcwctt, of the Boston Ilenild, and Mr. Smith, a U'adnii>- nuMnlx'r of the Master Teamsters' Association, who now became directors, had contributed very mucli to tlie success of the first i)arade by tlieir intelligent and eneigetic assistance. Tile otlier new director. Dr. John W. Bartol, is a practicing })hysician, and a mem- ber of the State Ik^ard of Health. The second parade, held May 30, 1904, was substantially a du})lication of the first, except that the number of prizes was increased, and that some new classes WTre added. The most important of these was the Class for Old Horses, open to all horses that were in active service at the time of the entry and had been owned and used by the person making the entry, or by his predecessor in business, for not less than ten years prior to the entr3\ This class proved to be the most interesting feature of the parade. Thirty-two veterans, all in good condition, appeared to contest for the prizes, and their sleek coats, fearless eyes and alei-t ears were an object lesson in the treatment of horse- flesh, showing what good care and kind usage will do to })rolong the life and pre- serve the strength of the animal. The prizes and their generous donors were as follows : 1st Prize, a gold medal of the value of $20.00, offered by the Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, through G. T. Angell, Esq. 2d Prize, $10.00, offered b}^ the Animal Rescue League. 3d Prize, $5,00, offered by Mr. W. 1). Quimby. 4th Prize, $4.00, offered by the Rev. Reuben Kidner. In addition, fourteen highly commended certificates, with prizes of one dollar each, were offered by the Association. The winners of the four prizes were as follows: 1st, The Boston Elevated Railway Co.'s "Chubb"; 2d, the J. T. Tighe Co.'s "Charlie"; 3d, Mr. X. M. Appley's "Billy"; 4th, Fifield, Richardson & Co's " Tom." Tlie other new class was for Veteran Drivers, a silver medal being offered by the American Humane Education Society for that driver in the parade who had been the longest time in the service of his present employer, or of the employer's predecessor in business. The medal was Avon by Mr. P. Carney, an employee of the Metropolitan Coal Company, and its predecessor, for 39 jx-ars. The chestnut horse driven by ]\Ir. Carne}^ also took a blue ribbon : and both man and horse may still be seen working daily in the streets of Boston. Other veterans not far behind Mr. Carney were John Carroll, an emploj^ec of the City of Newton for 37 years ; Timothy Foley, another employee of the Metropolitan Coal Com[)any, with a service 5 of 8(5 years: Miclmcl Murray, cinploycd by Filicld, Richardson i^ ( oiiii)aiiy for 88 years; and Solon .1. Kicliardson, in the serviee of the City T>aundiy Company for 30 years. To all Avhose length of service exceeded 20 years, Ihe Association gave a bron/c medal. The same classes for Old Horses and \'eteran Di-ivers are open this year; and the former class, as Avill be seen ])(do\v, has l)een much extended. An additional silver medal is offered in this (dass l)y Red Acre Farm, the charitable home and hospital for horses at Stow, Massachusetts ; and other new pi-i/es are offered by the Association. HOW THE PRIZES ARE AWARDED A few words should be said about the rules according to which the judging is done, for they differ from those wdiich govern the ordinary horse show. The prizes arc awarded p n' man' 1 1/ for good, bard, working condition, docile and gentle man- ners, showdng that the horses have been kindly treated, and for comfortable harness- ing. If two or more single horses or teaius of horses arc on a par in this respect, then the judges arc to award the prize to the best horse or the best team. The onl}^ (jualification of these rules is that age counts in favor of and not against a horse. Other things being eijual, the prize should be awarded to the older horse or team of horses. The rules, moreover, arc formed to discriminate against "green" horses, or novices. The intention is that the prizes shall go to houa fde Avorking horses that have been such for some period of time, and the longer the period the better. In many cases certain imperfections, not at all ai)parent to spectators at the reviewing stand, very properly prohibit the giving of a prize to a particular horse. The horses pass the reviewing stand at a w^alk, and at that gait a slight lameness would not be apparent, wdiereas the judges would have detected it Avhen the horses were shown to them at a trot. In one case a very beautiful })air of gray horses were rightly excluded from the prizes, because their collars were too small. In another case a sore under the collar prevented a very handsome truck horse from receiving a prize. In still another case much complaint was made because a noted horse that had received many prizes at horse shows failed to win a prize at the work horse parade, but the reason Avas that the horse had become slightly lame, a fact which was acknowledged by the owner after the parade. 6 If tlioisi' ])rin('iple.s 14)011 which the i)i'izo.s arc awarded Ije kept in mind, the Association fc(ds that there will he very little dissatisfaction with the decisions of the judges. Tncreasinii' c-are has been taken each year in the selection of the judges, and the Association is confident that its judges now form a band of men as com- petent and impartial as can be secured. THE OBJECT OF THE ASSOCIATION. The object of the Association is to induce owners and drivers of work horses to take more pride in their appearance and more interest in their welfare, and also to inducer the public generally to feel some inteiest in the horses which they see at work daily in the streets. These objects, it is believed, have been accomplished in great measure. The good effects of the parade have been lasting, for it is the testimony of veterinary surgeons, horse shoers, harness makers and various other persons in different parts of the city that work horses as a rule are l)etter groomed and treated, and that harness is more neatly kept, than was the case before the parades. That similar parades will ultimately be held in every large city in the countiy, is the hope and expectation of the Boston Association. One such has already been held in Kansas City, Missouri, and another in Toronto, Canada. None but owners of horses, and by no means all of them, realize how com- pletely the welfare and contentment of the horse depend upon the man who drives him and takes care of him ; and it is a melancholy fact that man}^ perhaps most, drivers take little interest in the horses under their charge. Even to those ow^ners who have no feeling for horses themselves, this matter is extremely important merely from the money point of view. The difference in working power and in longevity between a horse well treated and well driven, and one badly treated and badly driven, is far greater than would be supposed by any one who had not actual knowledge of the facts. ]\Ian3^ drivers, however, have a positive affection for their horses, and take the greatest pride in their good appearance. These are the men to whom the daily toil is not only a means of livelihood, but a source of happiness ; and to re^vard and increase this class is the main object of the Boston AVork Horse Parade Association. THE FUTURE OF THE ASSOCIATION. As to the future, although the chief function of the Association is to organize an annual parade and competition, it will consider itself at liberty to use its funds for 7 the relief of work lior.-^cs in any proper and practicable niaiinei'. lOspeeially does it hope to proeurc better watering facilities in the streets, and more humane jiave- ments ; to prevent the use of horses that are lame or otherwise unfit for labor ; to })ro\ide or to assist others in ])i'o\ iding a countiv home or ])l:ice of rest, for horses tempoi-arilj' disabled or exhausted. Beside what sums are obtained from the publication of advei'lisements in the catalogue, the Association has no I'cceipts exce})t gifts. The officers render their services, which in some cases are arduous, without anv conipensation ; and it is con- fidently expected that those citizens of Boston, who love horses, and who derive pleasure oi' ^jrofit from the use of them, Avill contribute according to their means. THIRD ANNUAL PARADE, MAY 30, 1905 PRIZES III"', mmibe'i' of prizes assigned to eaeh elass is stated in the eata- looue at the head of the class, but this number may l)e decreased if till the entries in that class do not appear, or if the Judges determine that all the prizes cannot worthily be l)esto\yed. The prizes will be awarded in sets of four prizes, namelj^ : First, second, third and fourth, and with each set there ji'oes also a 'diigln' commended,'" jjurple ribbon. A ril)b()n accompanies each prize as follows : — Blue with the fii-st ; Ked with the second ; Yellow with the third ; White with the fourth. The money prizes will Ix' given to the drivers. Diplomas for the owners will be awarded with each prize. In addition, certificates wdll be awarded to those drivers who are entitled to them as stated below. The money prizes and ribbons will be given at the review- ing stand. The diplomas and certificates will be delivered by mail, or otherwise, after the parade. CERTIFICATES Certificates will be awarded to those drivers who are certified by the owner to have driven the horses shown by them in the parade for at least one year prior to the date of the entry, provided that in the opinion of the Judges, the horses are service- ably sound, and in good flesh, condition and spirits, showing that they have been w^cU and gently handled. A horse shall be considered serviceably sound if he goes sound and breathes sound. A l)lind horse may be serviceably sound. INSTRUCTIONS TO JUDGES The Judges are earnestly re(|uested to lie at their stations promptly at 7.45 o'clock, so that the judging can begin as soon as the horses arrive. This is essential to the complete success of the parade. It is the (liitv ot the .Indues to oxcliulc fi-oiii the parade any horse that is dock- taih'd, or sick, lame, thin, or othcrw isc unlit for work : and also, unless the defect is remedied on the spot, any horse inii)r()perly harnessed, or attached to a vehicle bearing any temporary ad\crtisement or decoration. The prizes are to l)e a\\iU(le(l primarily for o-ood, hard, working- condition, docile and gentle manners, showing that the hoi'scs have been kiiidly treated, and for comfortable harnessing. If two or more single horses or teams of horses are on a par in this respect, then the Judges shall award the prize to the best horse or best team. In this exhil)ition, age counts in favor of, and not against, a horse. Other things being equal, the })rize should be awarded to the older horse or team of horses. Color is not to be considered, even in respect to matched teams. The vehicle is not to be considered, except that a vehicle too heavy for the horse or horses harnessed to it, should disfjualif}^ the entiy. Harness that is light, but strong enough to do the Avork required of it, is to be preferred to heavier harness. This rule is to be observed especially in respect to bridk's and other parts, in Avhicli great strength is not needed. The value or beauty of the harness is not to be considered. It is expected that Judges will test horses at a trot before awarding prizes to them. If any disi)uted point arises, the Judges for the class shall decide it, and their decision shall be final, except that if the Judges so desire they may require the assistance of any two members of the Executive Committee, who, with the Judges, shall make the final decision. The Judges will indicate on the special catalogue furnished to them the num- bers of the horses winning prizes, and the names of the drivers entitled to certifi- cates, and Avill bring the catalogues, so marked, to the reviewing-stand, as soon as the judging is finished. They ai-e reijuested not to inform anybody of the result of the judging, except the person ai)pointcd to receive their report at the reviewing stand. 10 SPECIAL PRIZES OLD HORSE CLASS DIVISION A Horses to be eligible to this division must be in iietive service, and must Inive l)een owned and used by the person making the entry (or by his predecessor in the business) for not less than fifteen years prior to the entry.

WELLS, Fire Department, Bristol Street. HISTORY OF THE ASSOCIATION. N April, 1902, an article appeared in the Boston Transcript which advocated the holding in Boston of a work horse parade. This suggestion caught the eye of Mr. R. A. Law- rence, who had long desired to see such a parade established in Boston, and who was familiar with the working of the- London and Liverpool cart horse parade societies. Mr. Lawrence called upon the writer of the Transcript article, and it was agreed between them that an attempt should be made in this direction. Very few persons appeared to be interested in the project, but after some delay an association was formed, with the following officers: — President, R. A. Lawrence; Secretary, H. C. Merwin; Treasurer, Dr. Austin Peters; Directors, Joshua Atwood, 3d; R. K. Clarke, H. K. Lyman, Arthur Perrin, C. S. Rackemann. The first intention was to hold the parade on Labor Day, 1902. It was found, however, that the time was too short; moreover, the selection of Labor Day was dis- approved by many teamsters, and for these reasons the parade was post- poned to Memorial Day, May 30, 1903. Early in the Spring, preparations were begun, Mr. Clarke becoming Vice-President, and Mr. W. D. Qiiimby, a master truckman, being added to the list of directors. It was Mr. Quimby, who suggested the scheme of drivers' certificates, a valuable feature of the parade, and certainly an improvement upon the English system. The conditions upon which these certificates are awarded will be found stated below. Later, ]Mr. John H. Jewett of the Boston Herald, a recognized authority upon horse flesh in all its forms; Mr. John H. Smith, a leading truckman, and Dr. John W. Bartol of the State Board of Health, also became directors. The prospect at iirst was discouraging. Contributions came in slowl}', and 3000 printed circulars which had been sent through the mail appeared to have gone into the waste basket iniread. The Directors, however, were optimistic, and when Mr. Lawrence, the President of the Association, deposited a thousand dollar bond with the Treasurer, as a guaranty fund, they felt sure of ultimate success. Gradually, too, the owners of work-horses awoke to the situation, and when the entries closed the}' were found to number four hundred and fifty-four. The parade was a triumphant success. Over $500 were distributed in prizes, in addition to the rosettes, and some special prizes were also awarded, one in particular to old King Coal, a famous black horse of great size and beauty, belonging to the Metropolitan Coal Company. This horse headed the procession, which extended over nearly four miles, and was witnessed with enthusiasm by a large crowd of spectators. The interest shown by the drivers in the parade can fairly be described as intense. They appeared to care little or nothing for the money which the winners received — what they were thinking of was the possible honor to be bestowed upon their horses; and most of them, when they approached the reviewing stand where the prizes were awarded, were observed to be pale with apprehension. Roughly speak- ing, ever}' other man received a prize, and yet, as the Association found to its sorrow, many of the drivers were grievously disappointed at the failure of their horses to obtain a ribbon. Soon after the first parade the Association was incorporated under the laws of Massachusetts; this being done under the direction and at the expense of C. S. Rackemann, Esq., to whose legal and practical judg- ment the Association i^ greatly indebted. The second parade, held May 30, 1904, was substantially a duplicate of the first except that it was larger, and except also that additional prizes were offered for Veteran Drivers, and for Old Horses. The Veteran Driver prize, a silver medal contributed by the American Humane Education Society, through G. T. Angell, Esq., was intended for that driver in the parade who could show the longest term of service with one concern. The medal was won by Mr. P. Carney, a driver for the Metropolitan Coal Company, and its predecessor in the business, with a record of thirty-nine years. The large chestnut horse driven by Mr. Carney also took a blue ribbon, and both man and horse may still be seen, almost every working day, delivering coal on Beacon Hill. In 1905, this prize was won by Thomas Haley, an employee of the A. T. Stearns Lumber Company, with a record of forty years. Next came Patrick CaUaghan, who had served the Newton Cemetery Corpor- ation for thirty-eight years, and Timothy Foley, a driver for the Metro- politan Coal Compan}', with a record of thirty-seven years. The Association also gives a bronze medal to every Veteran Driver, properl}' entered, whose length of service is twenty years or more. In 1905, the number of bronze medals awarded was sixteen. The Old Horse class, now the most interesting feature of the parade, was started in 1904, the first prize, a handsome gold medal, being con- tributed by the Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Prizes in this class are awarded to those horses who present the best appearance, age and length of service considered. The winner in 1904 was Chubb, owned by the Boston Elevated Railwa}^ Company, and driven b}^ Wm. J. Harkness. In 1905 this class was divided, the first division being for horses that had served fifteen years or more ; the second division including horses that had served ten years or more, and less than fifteen. The gold medal in the first division was won in 1905 by Ned, thirty years old, a bay geld- ing weighing about 1200 pounds, with indications of a Clyde ancestry. He is owned by Mr. James F. AVier, of Somerville, and driven by Frederick E. Wier. This is a remarkable animal, fat, sleek, practically sound, and showing no signs of great age. He is very spirited, and when the blue ribbon was fastened to his bridle, he alarmed the spectators by jumping off at a gallop. Mr. Wier has owned this horse twenty-one years, and he is still at work hauling potatoes in Somerville and Boston. Ned will appear in the 1906 Parade in the class for "Provisions, Light Horses." Other prizes in this class were given by the Animal Rescue League, by Mr. W. D. Qiiimby, and by the Rev. Reuben Kidner. The first prize in the second division of the Old Horse class, a silver medal, offered b}- Red Acre Farm, the charitable home for horses at Stow, was won in 1905 by the S. S. Pierce Co., with their black gelding Nigger No. 2, driven by Edward Higgins. The same prizes, given b}' nearly the same donors, with the addition of two prizes given by Miss Julia H. Worthington, are offered this year, and will be found stated below at the head of the entry list. THE LATE R. A. LAWRENCE. Since the parade of 1905, the Association has sustained an irrepar- able loss in the death of Robert Ashton Lawrence, its first president. Mr. Lawrence not onh' contributed ver}- largely to the funds of the Association, but was always its staunch and enthusiastic supporter. His warm heart and manl}- impulses, his readiness to assist the needy, his sympathy with all sorts and conditions of men, his modest}' and simplicity endeared him to his associates. From childhood he had shown a deep love for horses, his favorites being the thoroughbred and the cart-horse. In early life he took some part in amateur races, and he had all the instincts of the genuine sportsman of the old school, being wholly free from affectation, courteous and quiet in manner, but punctilious and dignified. In many respects he recalled the men of a generation before the Civil War when Henry and Eclipse ran their famous four-mile heats — the North against the South — and the sporting aristocracy of the whole country gathered to witness the event. Mr. Lawrence was killed b}' a fall, while attempting to board a moving train, at Chestnut Hill, near his home, on the twenty-first day of September, 1905. His age was thirty-nine years. Resolutions upon his death were passed by the directors of the Association, who attended his funeral in a body. At a recent meeting, it was voted to give, at each annual parade hereafter, a gold medal, to be known as the Lawrence Medal, which shall be the principal prize offered by the Association. It is hoped that this medal, and his generosity to the Association will, for many years to come, preserve the memory of its first president and best friend. The Association regrets that the pressure of other duties compelled Mr. C. S. Rackemann and Dr. J. W. Bartol to resign as directors. The places on the board thus made vacant by death and resignation have been filled by the election of Lewis A. Armistead, Francis Peabody, Jr., and Benjamin W. Wells, Fire Commissioner of the City of Boston. Dr. Austin Peters, the first and faithful Treasurer of the Association, re- signed that post in January, 1905; but the Directors retain the benefit of his sagacity and experience, for he continues to be one of their number. His place as Treasurer is taken b}' Mr. Joshua Atwood, 3d, who, from the beginning, has represented on the board the city govern- ment of Boston. THE OBJECT OF THE ASSOCIATION. The object of the Association is to induce owners and drivers of work horses to take more interest in their welfare and more pride in their appearance; and also to induce the public generally to pay some atten- tion to the horses daily at work in our streets. The horse is an animal that by his physical organization, especially by his highly developed nervous system, is peculiarly capable of suffering. Rough usage, even if it stops far short of absolute brutality, keeps him in a constant state of fear or irritation. Anyone who is accustomed to observe horses can tell by a single glance at a given horse whether the driver is a good, bad or indifferent one. The expression of the animal's eye, and the carriage of his ears, tell the story unmistakably. Even to owners who have no feeling for horses themselves this matter is extremely imp,ortant, merely from the money point of view. The difference in working power and in longevity between a horse well treated and well driven and one badly treated and badly driven, is far greater than would be supposed by those who have not actual knowledge of the facts. Hostlers and drivers are apt to take their cue from the employer; and the example set them is often a bad one. What kind of service can be expected, for example, by that rich Boston Corporation which recently sold at auction a horse that it had owned and worked for considerably more than twenty years! It is a melancholy fact that many, perhaps most drivers, take little interest in the horses under their charge. On the other hand, many have a positive affection for their horses, and show the greatest pride in their good appearance. These are the men to whom the daily task is not only a means of livelihood, but a constant source of happiness; and to reward and increase this class is the main object of the Boston Work Horse Parade x\ssociation. THE FUTURE OF THE ASSOCIATION. In addition to holding an annual parade, the Association considers itself at libert3'to use its funds for the relief of work horses in an}- proper and practicable manner. Especially does it hope to procure better watering facilities in the streets, and more humane pavements; to prevent the use of horses that are lame or otherwise unfit for labor; to provide or to assist others in providing a country home or place of rest, for horses temporarily disabled or exhausted. Reside what sums arc obtained from the publication of advertise- ments in the catalogue, the Association has no receipts except gifts. The officers render their services, which in some cases are arduous, without any compensation; and it is hoped that those citizens of Boston who love horses, and v> ho derive pleasure or proht from the use of them, will con- tribute according to their means. FOURTH ANNUAL PARADE, 1906. MONEY PRIZES, jS was announced some months ago, money prizes will be awarded if the funds in the treasury are sufficient for that purpose; but at the date of the printing of this catalogue it seems probable that the funds will not be sufficient, except of course in the case of the special prizes. There is a great increase of expenditure this year on account of the additional ribbons and the brass medals mentioned below. RIBBONS AND MEDALS, In the parade of 1906, a change will be made in the method of awarding the ribbons, and every entry which is thought worthy of being in the parade will receive something. The horses will be distributed in classes, as in previous years, according to the business in which the}' are used, and the only competition will be between the horses in each class. In each class so man}' ribbons will be awarded as there are entries; but these ribbons will be divided into four grades, equal, or nearly equal in number, namely, first, second, third and fourth. Each entry in a class will be graded and assigned to the first, second, third or fourth grade, and will be given a ribbon accordingly: blue for the first, red for the second, yellow for the third, white for the fourth. These ribbons are intended to be the property of the drivers. In addition, either at the parade, or a few day's later, a brass medal, properly marked, will be given to each winner of a blue ribbon. These medals are intended to be attached to the harness and worn every day as a permanent decoration; and it is believed that they will be eagerly sought and highly prized. The medal will belong to the owner of the horse, and it will be considered a breach of faith if he attaches a medal to any horse except the one to whom it was awarded. METHOD OF JUDGING. So far as possible the horses arc to be graded accordingly as they excel in the following points: {a) Good, hard, working condition. (d) Docile and gentle manners, showing that the}' have been kindly treated and handled. ic) Freedom from sores or galls. (d) Age. In every case, other things being equal, the older horse is to be set above a 3'ounger horse. Green, soft horses are to be discrimin- ated against, and to receive only third or fourth ribbons. {€) Comfortable harnessing. Collars too large or too small, throat-latches too tight, and inside reins too long, in the case of pairs, are common defects. Harness that is light, but strong enough to do the work required of it, is to be preferred to heavier harness. This rule is to be observed especially in respect to bridles and other parts in which great strength is not required. The value or newness of the harness does not count. The vehicle is not considered, except that a vehicle too heavy for the horse, or horses, drawing it, should disqualify the entry. Color is not considered even in respect to matched teams. If two horses, or two teams of horses, are on a par in respect to con- dition, manners, age and harnessing, then, as between them, preference should be given in awarding the ribbon, to the best horse. In short, the Judges should consider: First, Condition and harnessing; Second, Age; Third, Attractiveness and value. N. B. No ribbon should be awarded until the Judges have seen the horses move at a trot, or in case of the heavy horses, at a walk or trot as the Judges may decide. It is the duty of the Judges to exclude from the parade any horse that is thin, lame, sick, out of condition, dock-tailed, or in any way unfit for work. CERTIFICATES. In addition to the ribbons, certificates will be given to those drivers whose horses appear serviceably sound and in good condition and spirits, provided that they have been driven continuously by the same driver for at 10 least a year before the date of entry; and provided, also, that a certificate to this effect, signed by the owner, was filed with the entry blank. The provision as to the length of time during which the horses have been dri\en must be true of each horse in the team, if there are more than one, except that in the case of a four-horse team it will be sutficient if three of the horses have been driven by the driver for one year. A horse shall be considered serviceably sound if he goes sound and breathes sound. These certificates have nothing to do with the ribbons. A horse may be eligible for a ribbon, although the driver is not eligible for a certificate. Certificates are not awarded where owner and driver are one and the same person. NOTICE TO SPECTATORS. In many cases certain imperfections, not always visible to spectators at the reviewing stand, very properl}' prohibit the giving of a prize or a ribbon of high grade to a particular horse. The horses pass the review- ing stand at a walk, and at that gait a slight lameness would not be disclosed, whereas the Judges would have detected it when the horses were shown to them at a trot. Moreover, defects in harnessing, sores or galls under the harness, and other imperfections, not always apparent, frequently exclude a fine horse, or team of horses, from high honors. It should be remembered, too, that in this Exhibition age counts in favor of a horse, and g-reen horses are discriminated asfainst. If these principles upon which the prizes are awarded be kept in mind, the Association believes that there will be very little dissatisfaction with the decisions of the Judges. Increasing care has been taken each year in the selection of them, and the Association is confident that its Judges now form a band of men as competent and impartial as could be secured. 11 THE HOME OF "QUEEN QUALITY" THE PLANT FACTORY ALONE NOW PRODUCES ONE-FOURTH AS MUCH SHOE VALUE AS THE ENTIRE CITY OF BROCKTON, ONE-THIRD AS MUCH AS THE CITY OF HAVERHILL, AND ONE-FOURTH AS MUCH AS THE CITY OF LYNN.

In addition, the Association will give a bronze medal to every driver entered in this class (the prize winner excepted) whose term of service is twenty years or over.

HE history of the Annual Work-Horse Parade in Boston has already been ^ I ' recorded in the catalogues for previous years. The earliest suggestion of ■*" forming an association for this purpose was made by the late Eobert Ashton Lawrence, who became its first President, and who was always its generous friend and benefactor. Time has not diminished the sense of loss which his untimely death caused to his old associates. His warm heart and manly impulses, his modesty, his readiness to assist the needy, his sympathy with all sorts and conditions of men endeared him to them. He was a gentleman and a sportsman of the old school, free from all affectation, courteous and quiet in manner, but dignified and punctilious. The Lawrence Gold Medal, the principal prize offered annually by the Association, will, we hope, preserve his memory for many years to come. Last year the Association announced with regret the resignation of C. S. Packe- mann, Esq., and J. W. Bartol, M. I)., from the Board of Directors. This year the Board has lost Mr. J. H. Smith, of tlie firm of Youlden, Smith and Hopkins. To his energ}'' and wise, practical judgment the Association is greatly indebted, and the Directors trust that they will always have the benent of his advice and co-operation. Mr. Charles L. Burrill, a well-known banker, deeply interested in the humane treat- ment of horses, takes Mr. Smith's place. MEN AND HORSES. One fact has often forced itself upon ihe attention of the Directors, nameJy, that the welfare of the work-horse is bound up with the welfare of the men who drive and care for him. In stables where the men are well ])aid and are treated with kindness and consideration by the proprietor, the horses, in turn, are well treated by the men, and look sleek and contented. On the other hand, in stables where there is bad feeling, or utter want of good feeling, between the omplo3'er and his men, the horses suffer accordingly. Pecognizing these facts, some public-spirited women in New York and also in Chicago have recently organized clubs for teamsters, and even clubs for team- sters' wives. This is a step in the right direction. Bad toanisters ^eein to gravitate naturally to employers who do not really care about their horses. If the owner is a humane man, the spirit of humanity will per- vade his whole business. Jf he is cruel, or simply indifferent, a spirit of brutality, or at least of selfish indiSerence, will run through his force. The highly developed nervous system of the horse renders him peculiarly capable of suffering. Eough usage, even if it stops fai short of absolute l^rutality, keeps him in a constant state of fear or irritation. Anyone who is accustomed to observe horse? can tell by a single glance at a given horse Avhether the driver is a good, bad or indif- ferent one. The expression of the animal's eye, and the carriage of his ears, loll the story unmistalcably. There are many teamsters who treat the horse as if he were a machine, and there- fore are guilty of continual cruelty toward him, which reacts on their own charac- ters. Such men miss the opportunity of their lives, and their daily labor becomes a degradation and a curse to them. On the other hand, there are many humane drivers, who have a real affection for their horses, and take the greatest pride in their appearance. These men make good husbands, good fathers, good citizens; and their daily labor is not only a means of livelihood, but a constant source of happiness. To reward and increase this class is the main object of the Boston Work-Horse Parade Association. SCHOOLS FOR DRIVERS. The past winter in Boston has !:)een cold and ihc streets have been icy to a degree perhaps never knovn before, and work-horses have suffered accordingly. The snow is removed so qiiickly that it is impossible to keep horses sharp, and the city authori- ties are extremely negligent in sanding the slippery pavements. These circumstances are bad enough, but they are aggravated by bad driving. It is a common thing to see a pair of work-horses slipping and straining, witli the reins loose on their backs, necks stretched out, and legs sprawling; whereas, of course, they should be well col- lected, the reins taut, necks arched, legs well under theui, and toes gripping the pavement. In backing, also, horses are continually hampered by bad driving; their muscles are strained, their tempers irritated, and their stren^h exhausted — all because the driver docs not know how to direct their efforts. Last year a school for drivers was established in Paris, and during the past win- ter a course of instruction has been given to the drivers employed by a large firm in Chicago. That something of the sort would be useful in Boston is ob\dous, and the Boston Work-Horse Parade Association would be glad to co-oixrate in the matter with the master truckmen, or with any other persons. THE DISPOSAL OF OLD HORSES. There is a growing feeling in the eomnuinity that old and worn-out, or painfully lame horses ought not to be sold, but should be killed or otherwise disposed of in a humane manner. Under the present Fire Commissioner of Boston many of the dis- carded horses of that department have been sent to Red Acre Farm, the home for horses at Stow. A bill has recently been introduced in the New York legislature authorizing the head of the Fire Department of IJie city of New York to pension certain old or lisabled fire horses. Some persons and firms, we are glad to say, adopt a similar policy. This is true of Ginn and Co., the publishers, and doubt- less of others whose names are unknov/n to us. A step in this direction has been taken by the Boston Elevated iJailway Company. We are confident that the time is coming when the sale of an old or disabled horse will be abhorrent to the com- munity. THE FUTURE OF THE ASSOCIATION. Beside what sums are obtained from tlie publication of advertisements in the catalogue, the Association has no receipts except gifts ; and after every parade there has been a deficiency. The officers render their services, which in some cases are ardu- ous, without any compensation; and it is hoped that those citizens of Boston who love horses, and who derive pleasure or profit from the use of them, will contribute accord- ins to their means. FIFTH ANNUAL PARADE. THE STABLE COMPETITION. N January, 1907, at the suggestion of a leading Boston truckman, a stable competition was begun, and this has opened a field for usefulness which, the directors hope, will be availed cf very largely in the future. Tho y, y. u|. benefit to an owner of having his stable inspected from time to time by \^gT coiupetenl men whose observations will be kept secret, except from him, ^^ I are obviously great. The plan required that entries should be made prior to January 1, and that the stables should be open to inspection by the judges at such hours and as often as they might think necessary up to May first. Tliis competition was restricted, for the year 1907. to persons or firms whose main business vras the use of horses, excluding owners whose use of horses was incidental to their main business. It is intended in 1908 to have a stable competition open to all stables where work-horses are kept, and divided like the parade, into as many classes as may be ex- pedient. Among the points to be considered by the Judges were quality and quantity of hay and grain fed, bedding, grooming, blankets, character of stalls, ventilation, cleanliness of stable and hay-loft, sanitary condition of stable, and last, but not least, the character of the men in charge of the horses. The design was to consider the construction and me- chanical arrangements of the stable, but to lay more weight on the management of the stable; that is to consider the facilities as important, but to consider as still more im- portant the use which the proprietor and his men made of the facilities at their com- mand. The result of this competition and of independent investigations made by several of the directors is astonishing in some respects. It appears that many men who have owned and used horses for years do not yet know the nature of the animal. In former catalogues we have refrained from stating any rules as to the care of work- iiorses, thinking that they would be superfluous •, but the reader who is interested in the f-.ubject will find printed nn ])ago 12 of this catalogue tho points of a Good Stable and the points of a Bad Stable. On the other hand, it is a pleasure to state that in many cases the Judges in the stable competition found the management to be excellent, — sometimes nearly perfect. The prizes will be awarded at the annual parade, and they are all well de- served and highly honorable to the recipients. In one case, two men being thought equally worthy of first prize, a first prize is given to both. The prizes are awarded as follows : — TRUCKMEN. STABLES, First Prize, W. C. BRAY. Second Prize, R. J. ELDER. Third Prize, R. A. KENNET1\ Rrst Prize, EVERETT P. McINTIRE, of W. C. Bray's Stal)l('. First Pri/.e, WILLIAM ALEXANDER, of Whipple & Co/s Soi.icrville Stal)l. Stcond Prize, WILLIAM W. DICKSON, of R. J. Elder's Stable. EXPRESS CLASS. No prizes awarded. CONTRACTORS. STABLES. Firs I Prize, JOHN H. SULLIVAN, Brighton. Second Prize, HENNESSY BROTHERS, I'.rcokliiio. First Prize, LAWRENCE SULLIVAN, of John H. Sullivan's Staljle. Second Prize, PATRICK McCLANE, of Honnessy Brothers' Stable. The Judges for the stable competition were Mr. Ccorge W. Harrington and Mr. Maurice B Conway for the Truckmen's class, and Mr. W. D. Quimby and Mr. Arthur Perrin for the Express and Contractors' classes. These Judges have put themselves to great inconvenience, and have performed rlieir duties in a very conscientious and thorough manner. The stables, though widely scattered, were often inspected, and every detail was carefully looked into and considered. The Directors take this oppor- tunity to thank these gentlemen for their genovous. faitliful. and efficient service. RIBBONS AND MEDALS. Every entry which is thonglit worthy of l)eing in the parade will receive something. The hordes will be distributed in classes, as in previous years, according to the bus- iness in which they are used, and the only competition will be between the horses in each class. In each class so many ribbons will be awarded as there are entries; but these ribbons will be divided into four grades, equal or nearly equal in number, name- ly, first, second, third and fourth. Each entry in a class will be graded and assigned to the first, second, third or fourth grade, and \\:!1 be given a rililwn accordingly; blue for the first, red for the second, yellow for tlie third, white for the fourth. These ribbons are intended to be the property of tlie drivers. Dii|)lieates will be furnished to theowners, at the cost price, if the>^are applied lor. In addition, a handsome brass medal, properly marked, will he given to each win- ner of a blue ribl)on. Those medals are intended to be attached to the harness and worn every day as a permanent decoralioti; ;u)d they are eagerly sought and highly piized. The medal belongs to tlic owner of the horse, and it will be considered a breach of Jaith if he attaehi'-- a medal to any horse e\cept the one to whom it was awarded. CERTIFICATES. In addition to tlic ribbons, certificates will l^e given to those drivers whose horses appear serviceably sound and in good condit'on and spirits, provided that they have been driven continuously by the same driver for at least a year before the date of en- try; and provided, also, that a certificate to this effect, signed by the owner, was filed with the entry blank. The provision as to the length of time during which the horses have been driven must be true of each horse in the team, if there are more than one, except that in the case of a four-horse team it will be sufficient if three of the horses have been driven by liio driver for one year. A horse shall be considered serviceably sound if lie goes sound and breathes sound. These certificates have nothing to do with the ribl)ons. A horse may be eligible for a ribbon, although the driver is not eligible for a certificate, CertiKcates are not awarded where owner and driver are one and the same person. SPECIAL PRIZES. Beside the Lawrence Gold Medal offered by the Association for the best four-horse team, driven and cared for by the same man, there are special prizes, consisting of gold and silver medals and sums of money offered in the Veteran Driver, Old Horse, and other classes by the following: Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to An- imal?, American Humane Education Society, Animal Eescue League (the home for dogs), "Red Acre Farm (the home for horses), Mrs. John 0. Sha\A-, Miss Julia H. Worthington, Mrs. A. G. Merwin. These will be found specified in the entry list below. DRIVING COMPETITION. A driving competition for four and six-in-hand teams will be held in a vacant lot on 0.- near Commonwealth Ave., while the judging is taking place. Entries for this competition need not be made beforehand. The first prize will be a silver medal. If this proves to be a success additional competitions in driving vn]\ be held next year. U S. MAIL CARRIERS. This year for the first time a class is made for the Mail Carriers and Mail Dis- tributers who use horses in the Boston District, of whom there are about thirty-five. These men receive as a horse allowance only $300 a year, and as this sum was fixed when the price of horses, hay and grain was mucli less than it is now, tlie sum is wholly insufiicient. ITie men hope to receive an increase for this allowance of $100 a year, and the Boston Work-Horse Parade Association will endeavor to assist them in the matter. METHOD OF JUDGING. It is the duty of the Judges to exclude from the parade any horse that is thin, lame, sick, out of condition, dock-tailed, or in any way unfit for work. 'J'lie value of a horse does not count so much as his condition. Age counts in favor of a horse. The older the liorse, the higiier will he be graded, provided that his condition is good. Ihe Judges are instructed not to give hr.st prizes or blue ribbons to green horses. As between two horses equal in all other respects, including age, the prize should go to the better horse. No first prize or blue ribbon should be awarded to a horse unless — allowing for the imperfections of age — he is a horse of good type. Docile and gentle manners will be considered, a? showing that the horse has been kindly treated. Color Avill not count even in respect to matched teams. The value or newness of the harness will not count; l)ut tlie harness must he com- fortable, well-fitting, and not unnecessarily lieavy. Many a good horse has failed to receive a prize in former years by reason of his collar being too small or too large, or for some other defect in the harness. Throat- latcjies too tight, and inside reins too long, m the case of pairs, are also common de- fects. Harness that is light, l)ut strong enougli to do the work required of it, is preferred to heavier harness. This rule will be observed especially in respect to bridles and ether parts in which great strength is not required. Brass frontlets, unnecessary rings, tassels, plumes and other ornaments should not be used. Tlie single harness approved by the Association and sliown in a photograph printed in ibis catalogue weighs only 53 pounds, collar and all, and it is big enough for the aver- age 1350-pound horse. TTorses of that weight frequently carry a harness weighing 70 or 80 pounds. '^I'ho l)ridlc shown in the photograph weighs less than two pounds, — about half the usual weight. The vehicle will not be considered, except that a vehicle too heavy or otherwise unsuitable for the horse or for the work in which he is used, would disqualify the en- try. New harness and new vehicles are not absolutely prohibited, but exhibitors are re- quested not to use them. This is an exhibition of horses and not of wagons. Horses must be shown in the same manner in which they are regularly worked in all respects, including vehicles, harness, and number of horses in a team. For ex- emple, a horse regularly used in a pair, cannot be entered as a single horse. 10 NOTICE TO SPECTATORS. In many cases imperfections, not always visible to spectators at the reviewing stand, very properly prohibit the giving of a prize or a ribbon of hi^h grade to a par- ticular horse. The horses pass the reviewing stand at a walk, and at that gait a slight lameness would not be disclosed, whereas the Judges would have detected it when the horses were shown to them at a trot. Moreover, defects in harnessing, sores or galls under the harness, and other imperfections, not always apparent, frequently exclude a fine horse, or team of horses, from high hor.ors. It should be remembered, too, that in this Exhibition age counts in favor of a horse, and green horses are discriminated against. THE JUDGES, If the principles upon which the prizes are awarded be kept in mind, the Asso- ciation believes that there will be very little dissatisfaction with the decisions of the Judges. Increasing care lias been taken each year in the selection of them, and the As- sociation is confident that its Judges now form a band of men as competent and im- partial as could be secured. Their arduous and difficult services are rendered without ccuupensation, although many of them come from distant points, and the Association hereby expresses its gratitude for their generous assistance. POINTS OF A GOOD STABLE. POINTS OF A BAD STABLE. Men bring the horses in at night cool and breathing easily. Legs well rubbed if wet or muddy, or if the horses are tired. Head, ears and neck well rubbed, if wet from rain or sweat. Horses sponged under collar and saddle. Horses well brushed, if dry. Feet washed, and examined for nails. Eyes, nose and dock sponged in summer. In very hot weather, horses wiped all over with a wet sponge on coming in. Horses giv-en a little water, but not much, on coming in warm. No grain fed for at least an hour. Horses watered when cool, then hayed, watered again, and grained. (In any case watered twice after coming in at night.) Plenty of bedding, and horses bedded down all day Sunday. Hay and grain of the best quality. A bran mash Saturday night; cool in summer, hot in winter. Hayloft kept clean. Cobwebs swept down. Harness, especially collars, kept clean. Wide stalls. Horses tied long, so that they can lie with heads on the floor. Plenty of fresh air, but no draughts. No fumes from manure pit. Stalls not boarded up, but grating in the upper part. Drying-room for wet blankets. Stable quiet at night and on Sundays. Horses cleaned Sunday morning. Slatted outside doors for hot weather. Stable foreman good tempered, and not a drinking man. Comfortable room, with a bathtub, for the man in charge. Most important of all — Horses handled gently, neither struck, nor yelled at, nor sworn at. Owner drops in often. Horses brought in hot and breathing hard. Harness stripped off roughly, and horses rushed into stalls without rubbing, cleaning, or sponging. Horses' legs washed. Horses allowed to drink their fill, no mat- ter how hot ; or not watered at all. Grain fed before the horses are rested. Feet not washed or examined until the horse goes lame. Horses receive no water after eating their hay, until next morning. Scanty bedding. No bedding on Sundays until night and horses watered only twice. Hay and grain of poor quality. Bran mash not given — too much trouble. Hayloft dusty and dirty. Stable full of cobwebs. Harness unclean : sweat allowed to ac- cumulate on inside of collars. Narrow stalls. Horses tied short for fear of their being cast, as is likely when they are put up dirty. Stable close — no ventilating shaft. Windows dirty. Manure pit ventilates into stable. Stalls boarded up high, where the horses' heads are. Men loafing in the stable in the evening and on Sunday. Horses not cleaned on Sunday. No slatted outside doors for hot nights. No place for drying wet blankets. Uncomfortable room for man in charge : no bathtub. Stable foreman addicted to drink. Worst of all — Horses handled roughly, knocked about ; general atmosphere of noise and profanity. Owner never sees the horses taken out or put up. 12 Ohieif Marshal FRANCIS PEABODY, Jr. Randolph K.

HISTORY OF THE ASSOCIATION. HE first Work-Horse Parade in Boston and the first in this country, was held on Memorial Day, 1902, under the management of ten or twelve men who had been drawn together by their interest in horses. Soon afterward they were incorporated under the name of " The Boston Work- Horse Parade Association," and it is hoped that humane persons who have wills to make and property to leave will bear that title in mind. The Association has received a very inadequate support from the rich horse-owners and horse-users in the community; it always finishes the year with a deficit, and were it not for the great generosity of a few men and women it is doubtful if the Annual Parade could be maintained. Of the money contributed to the Association this year, about one- half comes from a very few persons, and especially from the widow of the first President of the Association, the originator of the Parade. He occupied a peculiar place in the community, having warm friends among men of every class and condition, and his loss is keenly felt by the Directors. The Lawrence gold medal, the most valuable prize given by the Association, is annually awarded in honor of him, and will, it is hoped, preserve his memory for many years to come. The Association also acknowledges with gratitude the gift of two hundred dollars from the Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, a compliment which is fully appreciated. This gift is in addition to the gold medal annually given by the society. There is but one change this year in the list of Directors. Mr. Charles L. Burrill resigned on account of his removal from the city, and Mr. George W. Harrington, who has served the Association for several years as a Judge in the Old Horse class, was elected in his place. THE USES OF THE ASSOCIATION. Beside holding the Annual Parade, the Association has maintained during the past winter the following means for improving the condition and treatment of work-horses: a Permanent Agent; a Course of Free Lectures; a Stable Competition. These will be considered separately. 3 THE PERMANENT AGENT. It has sometimes been said that the Boston Work-Horse Parade Association does nothing directly to improve the condition and treatment of the poorest class of work-horses — the horses who have no friends, in their owners or otherwise. Feeling that there was some truth in this statement, the Directors employed last December Mr. Maurice B. Conway, as a permanent agent to inspect the poorer class of stables and horses, and to assist the owners with advice and information and, in deserving cases, with blankets, harness, medicine and expert shoeing. Veterinary surgeons and blacksmiths have generously offered to give their services free, at the request of the agent; and much good has been, done in this manner. It often happens that skilful shoeing, or the gift of a proper collar or saddle or of a warm blanket will save an old or worn-out horse from much unnecessary suffering. It often happens also that a man will make some improvement in his stable or in the treatment of his horses, such as stopping holes in the walls, repairing doors and windows, providing bed- ding, watering his horses more frequently, grooming them better, etc., if the matter is properly suggested to him by a person acting as agent for a well-known society. The day after the fire in Chelsea our agent was sent there to assist in providing food fo*r the horses of poor men who were burnt out, and also to help them replace harness and wagons. He remained in Chelsea about two weeks engaged in this work, and his services have since been placed at the disposal of the Chelsea Rehabilitation Committee to assist them in buying horses, harness and wagons. The names of those who contributed money for the relief of Chelsea sufferers through our agent, will be found below in the general list of contributors. Those who have contributed services or supplies for the relief of poor horse-owners in Chelsea, or elsewhere, are the following:. Mr. Daniel Buckley, shoeing. Messrs. Coldwell Bros., use of their office. L. E. Chandler & Co.. one harness. VV. J. Flanders, shoeing. B. F. Griggs & Co. (through Mr. E. D. Moakley), oats and hay to the value of $ioo. S. S. Fierce Co., harness and blankets. Messrs. Priest & Smith, the free use of one stall. for a year. VV. D. Qiiimby, a wagon, and the loan of two other wagons. FREE LECTURES. 'A conference on Shoeing, intended for experts and well attended by them, was held by the Association in February, and afterward, on suc- cessive Friday Evenings, a course of Free Lectures was delivered as follows: Mr. a. B. Root — " The Shoeing of Horses." Dr. Frank L. Sullivan — " Common Equine Diseases." / Mr. W. D. Quimby — " Harness." } Dr. W. L. LaBaw — " The Age of Horses and the Care of ( Their Teeth." Mr. M. B. Conway — " Feeding and Watering." Dr. D. L. Bolger — " Diseases of the Feet." Mr. C. a. Campbell — " Driving." Hon. George G. Crocker — " Rules of the Road." Mr. Thomas Langlan — " Experiences as a Humane Agent." The lectures were attended by extremely attentive audiences, and the Association hereby expresses its thanks to the lecturers, and its hope that their addresses will be repeated next winter. THE STABLE COMPETITION. Entries were accepted this year from stables of every kind, and they were judged, not in competition, but accordingly as they satisfied the standard fixed by the Judges. Among the points considered were: quality of hay and grain, bedding, blanketing, grooming, ventilation, stalls, sanitary condition of stable, and last, but not least, the handling of the horses by drivers and grooms, including the condition in which the horses are returned to the stable by the drivers. There were forty entries. and the names of the stables and stable foremen winning prizes are stated below. The stables and the foremen are not always graded alike. Some- times, a foreman makes poor use of the facilities at his command, and in other cases a good foreman has to struggle against bad drivers, poor facilities, or a stingy owner. The stable competitions of this and the previous year have disclosed the fact that man}' owners absolutely waste capital which they have invested in horses by neglecting to take proper care of them, to say nothing of humanity. The following matters especially have been forced upon the attention of the Judges : I. That if the men are on good terms with the employer, the horses are usually well treated ; whereas, if the men are dissatisfied, the horses are always badly treated. 5 2. That the worst enemy o£ the horse is intoxicating liquor in the driver or stablemen. 3. That in many stables, especially trucking stables, there is an insuili- cient force on Sundays, so that the horses are not properly cleaned, bedded or watered. 4. That in many stables, otherwise excellent, the horses are not watered at night after eating their hay, when they are always thirsty. 5. That in the case of many large concerns the stable treatment is almost perfect, but the drivers hurry the horses when they start out in the morning, or after the noon feed, and also hurry them to the stable at night, bringing them in hot. This is especially true of the lighter horses, such as those used by bakers, milk dealers and department stores. The Judges for the Stable Competition, to whom the Association is indebted for very .careful and conscientious work, were the following: DR. HOWARD BUCK, MR. M. B. CONWAY, MR. G. W. HARRINGTON, DR. J. H. ROLLIN, MR. JAMES WEBSTER. STABLE COMPETITION. FIRST PRIZE. Stable. Atlantic Works Atwood & McManus Austin Biscuit Co. Batchelder Bros. Boston American Boston Elevated Railway Co.

Tliere was a special class for Fire Department Stables, in which three cities were entered. In this class the entries were judged in com- petition, one cit}' against another, and the prizes were awarded as follows: First Prize — City of Somerville. Second Prize — City of Cambridge. Third Prize — City of Melrose. A gold medal is awarded to Mr. James Hopkins, Chief of the Somerville Department, for the great excellence of the stables under his charge. Mr. Hopkins has been a member of the Somerville Fire Department for more than lift}' years. The Judges in the Fire Department Stable Competition were: JOSHUA ATWOOD, 3d, LEWIS A. ARMISTEAD. FIRE EXITS FOR STABLES. The following extract from the report for 1907 of Benjamin W- Wells, late Fire Commissioner, and a valued Director of this Association, speaks for itself: STABLES. " Scores of horses are burned or suffocated to death every year in this city. Some reasonable regulation of stable construction should be passed looking to the proper arrangement of runways and exits. This great and cruel loss of horse life has been to a very considerable degree unnecessary, and if some official supervision of stables with autliority to require proper construction could prevail, the horror could be greatly abated. " The Work-Horse Parade Association, which has accomplished so much for the welfare of the horse in this city, might well take this subject under consideration." THE DISPOSAL OF OLD HORSES. There is a growing feeling in the commimit}' that old and worn-out horses, or painfully lame horses, ought not to be sold, but should be killed, or otherwise disposed of in a humane manner. It seems almost impossible that a firm or corporation should use a horse for ten, fifteen or even twenty years, and then, when he is old and worn out, sell him for a small price to any chance buyer. And yet this is frequentl}' done. The following is a law recentl}' passed by the Massachusetts Legislature: [Chap. 133.] An Act Relative to the Disposition of Certain Horses Owned by Cities and Towns. Be it enacted^ etc.^ as foUoxvs : Section i. Whenever any horses used in the fire department, the police department, the street or sanitary department, or any other depart- ment of any city or town shall, by reason of disability or disease, become unfit for use therein, the commissioner or other officer having charge of such department, in cities with the approval of the mayor, and in towns with the approval of the selectmen, instead of causing such horses to be so'd, may transfer them to the custody of the charitable society incorporated under the name of Red Acre Farm, Incorporated, or to any other charitable society incorporated in this commonwealth for the prevention of cruelty to animals, or for the care and protection of dumb animals, if the society is willing to accept the custody thereof, to be disposed of in such manner as the said society may deem best; provided^ that the society upon receiving any such horse shall give a written agreement not to sell the horse or to let the same for hire. If any horse so received shall thereafter be sold or let for hire, the proceeds of such sale or letting shall be the property of the city or town, and custody of the horse shall revert to the city or town. Section 2. This act shall take effect upon its passage. [_Af>proved Februaiy 27, igo8.'] Red Acre Farm is always ready to accept the charge of an}' horse transferred to it b}^ any person, firm or corporation; and the agent of this Association, Mr. M. B. Conway, acts also as agent for the Farm. in m ^ < 10 SIXTH ANNUAL PARADE, 1908 NY horse that is dock-tailed, sick, lame, thin, galled, or out of condition will be disqualitied. Every entry not disqualified will receive a ribbon, either first (blue), second (red), or third (yellow). In the Old Horse Class highly commended ribbons are awarded, which are equivalent to third prizes in other classes. Each blue ribbon winner will receive a brass medal to be worn as a permanent ornament on the horses. There is no restriction this year upon the number or grade of ribbons to be awarded. The Judges may award such ribbons as they deem to be deserved, subject to the following rules: (i) Age counts in favor of a horse. (2) Blue ribbons or first prizes are not to be awarded to green horses, and, if possible, not to horses who have worked less than one year. (3) Blue ribbons or first prizes are not to be awarded to any horse, unless, allowing for the imperfections of age, he is a horse of good type and good quality. MANNERS. Manners should be considered, as showing whether or not the horse has been treated kindly. COLOR. The color of a horse does not count, even in respect to matched pairs. THE VEHICLE. The vehicle does not count, except that a vehicle too heavy for the horse or horses drawing it should either disqualify the entry, or reduce the grade of ribbon which it is to receive. THE HARNESS. The value or beauty of the harness does not count ; but a harness that is dirty, too heavy, especially in the bridle, or ill-fitting, especially in the collar, counts against the entry. Many a good horse has failed to receive a prize in former years by reason of his collar being too small or too large, or for some other defect in the harness. Throat-latches too tight, and inside reins too long, in the case of pairs, are also common defects. 11 Harness that is light, but strong enough to do the work required of it, is preferred to heavier harness. This rule will be observed especially in respect to bridles and other parts in which great strength is not re- quired. Brass frontlets, unnecessary rings, tassels, plumes and other orna- ments should not be used. The single harness approved by the Association and shown in a photograph printed in this catalogue weighs only 53 pounds, collar and all, and it is big enough for the average 1350-pound horse. Horses of that weight frequently carry a harness weighing 70 or 80 pounds. The bridle shown in the photograph weighs less than two pounds — about half the usual weight. CERTimCATES. In addition to the ribbons, certificates will be given to those drivers whose horses appear serviceably sound and in good condition and spirits, provided that they have besn driven continuously by the same driver for at least a year before the date of entry; and provided, also, that a certifi- cate to this effect, signed by the owner, was filed with the entry blank. The provision as to the length of time during which the horses have been driven must be true of each horse in the team, if there are more than one, except that in the case of a four-horse team it will be suflScient if three of the horses have been driven by the driver for one year. A horse shall be considered serviceably sound if he goes sound and breathes sound These certificates have nothing to do with the ribbons. A horse may be eligible for a ribbon, although the driver is not eligible for a certificate. Certificates are not awarded where owner and driver are one and the same person. SPECIAL PRIZES. Beside the Lawrence Gold Medal offered by the Association for the best four-horse team, driven and cared for by the same man, there are special prizes, consisting of gold and silver medals and sums of money offered in the Veteran Driver, Old Horse, and other classes by the follow- ing: Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, through G. T. Angell, Esq., American Humane Education Society, Animal Rescue League, Red Acre Farm (the home for horses). Miss Julia H. Worthington, Mrs. Thacher Loring, Mrs. Amanda Dwight, Mr. George W. Harrington, Messrs. James Forgie's Sons, The Mark Cross Com- pany, The London Harness Company, and others. These will be lound specified in the entry list below. 12 DRIVING COMPETITION. A Driving Competition for four and six-in-hand teams in the " Truck- men " Chiss will be held in or near Commonwealth Avenue, while the judging is taking place. Entries for this competition need not be made beforehand. The first prize will be a silver medal. U. S. LETTER CARRIERS. There is a class for the Letter Carriers and Letter Distributors who use horses in the Boston District, of whom there are about thirty-five. These men receive as a horse allowance only $300 a year, and as this sum was fixed when the price of horses, hay and grain was much less than it is now, the sum is wholly insufficient. The men hope to receive an increase for this allowance of $100 a year, and the Association will endeavor to assist them in the matter. NOTICE TO SPECTATORS. In many cases imperfections, not always visible to spectators at the reviewing stand, very properly prohibit the giving of a prize or a ribbon of high grade to a particular horse. The horses pass the reviewing stand at a walk, and at that gait a slight lameness would not be disclosed, whereas the Judges would have detected it when the horses were shown to them at a trot. Moreover, defects in harnessing, sores or galls under the harness, and other imperfections, not always apparent, frequently ex- clude a fine horse, or team of horses, from high honors. It should be remembered, too, that in this Exhibition age counts in favor of a horse, and green horses are discriminated against. THE JUDGES. If the principles upon which the prizes are awarded be kept in mind, the Association believes that there will be very little dissatisfaction with the decisions of the Judges. Increasing care has been taken each year in the selection of them, and the Association is confident that its Judges now form a band of men as competent and impartial as could be secured. Their arduous and difficult services are rendered without compensation, although many of them come from di-tant points, and the Association hereby expresses its gratitude for their generous assistance. POINTS OF A GOOD STABLE. POINTS OF A BAD STABLE. Horses walked on starling out in the morning, and after the noon feed. Men bring the horses in at noon, and at night, cool and breathing easily. Legs well rubbed if wet or muddy, or if the horses are tired. Head, ears and neck well rubbed, if wet from rain or sweat. Horses sponj^ed under collar and saddle. Horses well brushed if dry. Feet washed and examined for nails. Eyes, nose and dock sponged in summer. In very hot weather, and then only, horses wiped all over with a wet sponge on coming in. (This does not mean washing the horse, much less turning the hose on him.) Horses given a little water, but not much, on coming in warm. No grain fed for at least an hour. Horses watered when cool, then hayed, watered again, and grained. (In any case watered at night. After eating their hay. This is especially necessary in summer.) Plenty of bedding, and horses bedded down all day Sunday. Hay and grain of the best quality. A bran mash Saturday night or Sunday noon ; cool in summer, hot in winter. Horses salted in the bran mash, or other- wise, with regularity. Hayloft kept clean. Harness, especially collars, kept clean. Wide stalls. Horses tied long, so that they can lie with heads on the floor. Plenty of fresh air, but no draughts. No fumes from manure pit. Stalls not boarded up, but open or grated in the upper part. Drying-room for wet blankets. Stable quiet at night and on Sundays. Horses cleaned Sunday morning. Slatted outside doors for hot weather. Stable foreman good tempered, not a iner and Avon Streets.

One fact has often forced itself upon the attention of the Directors, namely, that the welfare of the work-horse is bound up with the welfare of the men who drive and care for him. In stables where the men are well paid and are treated with kindness and consideration by the proprietors, the horses, in turn, are well treated by the men, and look slick and con- tented. On the other hand, in stables where there is a bad feeling, or utter want of good feeling, between the employer and his men, the horses suffer accordingl}'. Recognizing these facts, some public-spirited women in New York and also in Chicago have recently organized clubs for teamsters, and even clubs for teamsters' wives. This a step in the right direction. Bad teamsters seem to gravitate naturally to employers who do not really care about their horses. If the owner is a humane man, the spirit of humanity will pervade his whole business. If he is cruel, or simply indifferent, a spirit of brutality, or at least of selfish indifference, will run through his force. The highly developed nervous system of the horse renders him pecularly capable of suffering. Rough usage, even if it stops far short of absolute brutality, keeps him in a constant state of fear or irritation. An3'one who is accustomed to observe horses can tell by a single glance at a given horse whether the driver is a good, bad or indifferent one. The expression of the animal's eye, and the carriage of his ears, tell the story unmistakably. There are many teamsters who treat the horse as if he were a machine, and therefore are guilty of continual cruelty toward him, which reacts on their own characters. Such men miss the opportunity of their lives, and their daily labor becomes a degradation and a curse to them. On the other hand, there are many humane drivers, who have a real affection for their horses, and take the greatest pride in their appearance. These men make good husbands, good fathers, good citizens; and their daily labor is not only a means of a livelihood, but a constant source of happiness. To reward and increase this class is the main object of the Boston Work-Horse Parade Association. 86 ^l/Vi^ BOSTON WORK-HORSE PARAD^ ASSOCIATION 1909 CyUh CATALOGUE Boston Work -Horse Parade Association (INCORPORATED) SEVENTH ANNUAL PARADE MAY 31st, 1909 ANCHOR LINOTYPE PRINTING CO.. 41 INDIA ST..

HE first ^^^~)rk-Horse Parade in Boston, and the fi"st in this coun- tr}-, was held (m Memorial Day, 1903, under the management ^^ ^of ten or tweh'e men who had been drawn together by their interest in horses. Soon afterward they were incorporated un- der the name of "The Boston Work-Horse Parade x\ssociation," and it is hoped that humane persons who have wills to make and property to leave will bear that title in mind. The Association has received a verv inadequate support from the rich horse-owners and horse-users in the community; and were it not for the great generosity of a few men and women, among whom are the widow and relatives of the late R. A. Lawrence, the founder and first President of the Association, it is doubtful if the Annual Parade could be maintained. There is one change this year in the list of Directors. The Association has lost by death, Randolph K. Clarke, a Vice-President, who had been con- nected with the Parade from the beg'inning. and to whose tact, diplomacv and keen common sense, the directors are indebted for guiding them through some difficult places. Mr. Clarke was a very amiable, warm-hearted, genial, courageous man, with a genuine love of horses, and his death has left a gap in the Association which will never quite be filled. Francis Peabody, Jr., who has been a Director for some years, and upon whose judgment the Association greatly relies, was elected Vice-President in Mr. Clarke's place; and the Association gladly took advantage of ]\Ir. Charles L. Burrill's return to lioston to re-elect him as a Director. THE USES OF THE ASSOCIATION. Beside holding- the Annual Parade, the Association has maintained dur- ing the past winter the following means for improving the condition and treatment of work-horses: a Course of h'ree Lectures: a system of Stable In- spection; and to some extent, a Permanent Agent. These will l)e considered separately. FREE LECTURES. The lectures were delivered at the Revere House "u Fri(la\- e\enings as follows : MR. A. P. ROOT. "Shoeing." MR. W. D. QUniPY, "Humane Harnessing" MR THOMAS LAXGLAN, "Experiences of a Humane Agent." THE TTOX. GEO. G. CROCKER. "Rules of the Road and DHving." DR. D. P. POLGER, "Diseases of the Feet." DR. FRANK J. SCLLIVAX, "Feeding and Watering." ^IR. C. .\. CAAH'PELL, "Handling and Treatment of PP.rses." The .Association hereby express its thanks to these gentlemen for the interesting lectures which they delivered, and which wer-j listened to bv ex- tremely attentive audiences. Next year it is proposed to have this course delivered in a hall, to permit smoking, anck so far as may be possible, to il- lustrate the lectures by the use of a stereopticon. THE STABLE INSPECTION. The system of Stable Pispection, the Directors believe, is capable of re- sulting in great benefit to horses and economy to owners. The stables en- tered are inspected from time to time b}- couii^etcnt men whose reports and suggestions are communicated confidcntiallv to the owners, .\fanv large concerns, especially corporations, lea\-e their stable maiiagement wliolly to subordinates, and often do not know whether it is good or Ixid, or how it could be improved. No amount of "system" can compensate for the want of personal interest in the horses and in the men who take care of them. It shotild be the lousiness of some person in authority, in every coneern, to know how the horses I'^ok and feel, whether the men in charge are faithful or not, how long- the}- have l)een in the serxice. what sngoestions they have to make and so forth. It seems to be the policy of many large corporations and firms to treat men and horses alike as if they w^ere machines. This is not good "business" to say nothing of humanity. The Inspection is o])eii to stables of all kinds, including livery, hack and boarding stables; and the staldes are judged, not in competition v\Aith one another, but accordingly as they satisfy the standard fixel }ear by the Mas'^achusetts Legislature: [Chap. 133.] AN ACT RELATIVE TO THE" DISPOSITIOX OF CERTAIN HORSES OWNED BY CITIES AND TOWNS. Be' if enacted, etc.. as follozvs: Section t. Whenever any horses used in the fire department, tlic p'dice department, the street or sanitary department, or any other dei)artment of any citv or town shall, bv rea'^on of disability or disease, become unfit for use till -ein. the commissioner or other officer having charge of sucli depart- ment, in cities with the appro\-al of the mayor, and in t()wns with the approval of tlie selectmen, instead of causing such horses to be sold, may trau'^fer- them to the custody of the charitable society incorporated tmdcr the name of Red Acre h^arm. Incorporated, or to any other charitable socict\- incor- porated in this commonwealth for the prevention of cruelty to animals, or for the care and ]irotection of dumb animals, if the society is willing to accejjt the custody- thereof, to be disposed of in such manner as the saiil society mav deem best; prorided, that the society upon receix'ing an\- sucli horse shall give a written agreeiuent not to sell the horse or to let the same for hire. If any horse so received shall thereafter be sold or let for hire. the proceeds of such sale or letting shall be the propert)- of the city nr town. and custody of the horst' >hall revert to the citv or town. SEVENTH ANNUAL PARADE, 1909 NY horse that is dock-tailed, sick, hime, thin, galled, or out of condition will be disqualified. Every entry not disqualified will receive a ribbon, either first (blue), second (red), or third (yellow). In the Old Horse Class highly commended ribbons are awarded, which are equivalent to third prizes in other classes. Each blue ribbon winner will receive a brass medal to be worn as a permanent ornament on the harness. There is no restriction upon the number or grade of ribbons to be award- ed. The Judges may award such ribbons as they deem to be deserved, sub- ject to the following rules: ( 1 ) Age counts in favor of a horse. (2) Blue ribbons or first prizes are not to be awarded to green horses, and, if possible, not to horses who have worked less than one year. (3) Blue ribbons or first prizes are not to be awarded to any horse, unless, allowing for the imperfections of age, he is a horse of good type and good quality."" MANNERS. Manners should be considered, as showing whether or not the horse has been treated kindly. COLOR. The color of a horse does not count, even in respect to matched pairs. *For what is meant by quality, see the r«g.liss Julia LI. W'orthington. Mrs. Thacher Lo-ing. ^Irs. .\manda Dwight. (lerirge W. ILarringtun. Lewis A. Armistead. James Forgies' Sons. The Mark Cross Company. The London Harness Companw and others. These will be found s])ecifie(l in the ent-y list below DRIVING COMPETITION. A Driving Competition for four and six-in-hand teams will be held in or near Commonwealth Avenue, while the judging is taking place. Entries for this competition need not be made beforehand. The first prize will be a silver medal, to go to the driver. U. S. LETTER CARRIERS. There is a class for the Letter Carriers in the Boston District wdio have horses; of these there are al)Out thirty-five. By the aid of the Hf">n. AA'. ]\L Crane, the Association has been al)le to obtain for these men an increase of $25 in their yearly allowance, which is now only vS325. This sum is grossl}- inadequate. The men do their best, but their horses and wagons make a poor showing. Only one has made an entry in the Parade of 1900. v.] NOTICE TO SPECTATORS. In nianv cases imperfections, not always visil)le to .^iiectators at the re- viewing stand, very pro])erIy prohibit the giving- of a prize or a ribbon of high grade to a particular horse. The horses pass the reviewing stand at a walk, and at that gait a slight lameness would not l)e disclosed, whereas the Judges would have detected it when the horses were shown to them at a trot. Moreover, defects in harnessing, sores or galls under the harness, and other imperfections, not always ai)parent. frequently exclude a tine horse, or team of horses, from high honors. It should be remembered, too, that in this Ex- hibition age counts in fav^r <>f a hawrence Mr. Joseph Lee Miss Helen Loring Mrs. Thacher Loring Miss Georgina Lowell Mr. George S. Mandell Mr. F. H.

One fact has often forced itself npon the attention of the Directors, namely, that the welfare of the work-horse is bound up with the welfare of the men who drive and care for him. In slahles where the men arc well paid and are treated with kindness and consideration by the proprietors, the horses, in turn, are well treated bv the men. and look sleek and contented. On the other hand, in stables where there is a bad feeling, or utter want of good feeling, between the employer and his men, the horses suffer accordingly. Recognizing these facts, some pub- lic-spirited women in 'New York and also in Chicago have recently organized clubs for teamsters, and even clubs for teamsters' wives. This is a step in the right direction. Bad teamsters seem to gravitate naturally to employers who do not reall}' care about their horses. If the owner is a humane man. the spirit of humanity will pe'/vade his whole business. If he is cruel, or simply indifferent, a spirit of b"utality, or at least of selfish indifference, will run through his force. The highly developed nervous system of the horse renders him peculiarly capable of suffering. Rough usage, even if it stops far short of absolute bru- tality, keeps him in a constant state of fear or irritation. Anyone wdio is ac- customed to observe horses can tell by a single glance at a given horse whether the driver is a good, bad or indifferent one. The expression of the animal's eye and the carriage of his ears tell the stor^- un.mistakably. There arc many teamsters who treat the horse as if he were a machine, and therefore are guilty of continual cruelty toward him, which reacts on their own characters. Such men miss the opportunity of their lives, and their daily labor becomes a degradation and a curse to them. On the other hand, there are many humane drivers, who have a real affec- tion for their horses, and take the greatest pride in their appearance. These men make good husbands, good fathers, good citizens ; and their daily labor is not only a means of livelihood, but a constant source of happiness. To reward and in- crease this class is the main object of the Boston Work-Horse Parade Associa- tion. 308 QUALITY IN WORK HORSES. (")ur judges arc inslniclcd imt to award liluc ribl)ons or first prizes to any Iiiirsc, no matter how good his condition, unless he is a horse of good type and tjuaUty. QuaHty, it need not be said, is just as important in a work horse as in a race horse. QuaHty might perhaps be described as that fineness of texture which good breeding produces. The bone in a well-ljred horse is more dense and less brittle than the bone of a coarse l)red animal. It is true, of course, that well-bred horses are sometimes deficient in (|ualit_\-, but no horse has qualit)' unless he is well- bred. The horse with quality has more endurance, and he is less subject to dis- ease and to unsoundness of feet and legs than is the low-bred horse. Conse- quently it is more humane to use horses with quality than those without quality. Quality and beauty are usually found together, and yet, as all horsemen know, one may exist without the other. A horse may have quality without being in the least beautiful. For example, he may have a yewe neck, a large head, long ears, a Roman nose, a sway back, flat sides, slack loins, calf-knees, cow hocks and a rat tail ; and yet if his coat is short and silk}-, if his head though large is bony and well-cut. if his ears though long are well shaped, if his legs are flat and clean, and if his hoofs are of iine, close texture, then the horse has quality. Horses of the Shire and Clyde breeds often look coarse at first sight on account of their Roman noses and hairy legs, but in the best specimens of these breeds the long hair about the fetlocks is fine and silky, and their heads, though not handsome, are clean-cut. Quality is thus described by Professor Rufus C. Obrecht of the University of Illinois : '"Quality in a horse is of prime importance. This term when ap- plied to horses has reference to their bones, skin, hair, and muscles. Its pres- ence is shown by clean-cut features of the head ; firm, clean bone ; tendons well defined ; close fitting, glove-like skin ; hair fine and silky ; an abundance of fin- ish and absence of coarseness, but not necessarily small bone. When slightly ex- erted the skin will show clearly an intricate net work of veins. Coarse hair is usually associated with a coarse skin and a soft spongy bone which is weak and subject to disease. With (|uality the muscles stand out prominently and are clearly defined which aids in giving a horse finish. Quality is a strong indication of the extent of a horse's endurance. These two characteristics are closelv as- sociated, and a horse lacking in (|uality is comparativel}- a cheap animal."

AGENTS GILBERT TOMPKINS JAMES MEREDITH Offick, 15 Beacon Street, Room 27 HISTORY OF THE ASSOCIATION HE tirst Work-Horse Parade in Boston, and the first in this country, was held on Memorial Day, 1903, under the man- agement of ten or twelve men who had been drawn together by their interest in horses. Soon afterward they were incorporated under the name of "The Boston Work-Horse Parade Association;" and it is hoped that humane persons who have wills to make and property to leave will bear that title in mind. The Association has received a very inadequate support from the rich horse-owners and horse-users in the community; and were it not for the great generosity of a few men and women, among whom are the widow and relatives of the late R. A. Lawrence, the founder and first President of the Association, it is doubtful if the Annual Parade could be maintained. The custom of holding Work-Horse Parades is slowly but surely spreading over the country, and we are proud to say that our Parade has served as a model for most of the others. Among the places in which a Parade has been held, or is to be held during the present year, are the following: New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, San Francisco (the largest parade yet held), Buffalo; Burlington, Iowa; Columbus and Youngstown, Ohio; Grand Rapids and Manistee, Michigan; Ithaca, N. Y.; Milwaukee; Minneapolis; Nashua, N. H.; Hartford; New Haven; New Orleans; Seattle, Washington; Fall River; Worcester; Houlton, Maine; and Melbourne, Australia. THE USES OF THE ASSOCIATION This Association does not confine itself to holding an Annual Parade. We have continually in mind the unfortunate horse who is not fit to appear in any parade, and we do what we can to diminish his sufferings. OUR AGENTS During the past year we have employed most of the time one or more Agents to go about among the poorer class of stables, and assist the owners of the horses with advice, medicine and other means. Men who 3 treat their horses with cruelty are warned, and extreme cases, especially those of horses incurably lame or otherwise unfit for work, nre reported to the Massachusetts S. P. C. A., and in such cases that Society has always been prompt to act. We are greatly indebted also to the Board of Health of the City of Boston, The Chairman, Dr. Durgin, the other Members of the Board, and Mr. Jordan, the Chief Inspector, have used their authority to brirg about a proper tre tment of horses in stables, so far as the law permits them to act. All stables in the city are subject to their inspection, and their suggestions are never disregarded. MEETINGS FOR DRIVERS Two meetings for Drivers, Stablemen, and all persons interested in horses, were held in Kingsley Hall, at which addresses were made by Dr. Rowley, President of the M. S. P. C. A., and others. At these meetings also Mr. W. D. Qiiimby, one of our directors, made an address on Humane Harnessing, illustrated by a harness of the form approved by the Association, and stereopticon pictures of work-horses were shown and explained by the President of the Association. BULLETINS The Association issued several months ago a Bulletin on Feeding and Watering, by Gilbert Tompkins. This Bulletin has been widely read and highly commended. It is reprinted at the end of this catalogue, where will be found also a Bulletin, just issued, on The Disposal of Old Horses. There is a growing feeling in the community that old horses and pain- fully lame horses ought not to be sold, but should be killed or otherwise disposed of in a humane ma'^ner. Red Acre Farm, the home for hoises, is always ready to receive and care for the old or worn-out horse, wiihout charge to his owner. Another Bulletin, which is an answer to the question will the Motor Wagon take the place of the Work-Horse, and results from a thorough investigation of the subject, has just been published. All these Bulletins can be had, free, on application to our Secretary. A fourth Bulletin on the subject of vacations for Work-Horses is now in preparation. We believe it to be a fact that an annual vacation for the Work-Horse, and especially for the old Work-Horse, is a matter not only of humanity, but of economy. THE STABLE INSPECTION The most important activity of this Association, next to the Parade, and perhaps not second to that, is the s) stem of Stable Inspection. Entries tor this may be made at any time, and by stables of all kinds, including livery, hack and boarding stables. There is no entry fee. The stables are judged, not in competition with one another, but accordingly as they s itisfy the standard fixed by the Judges. The prizes are unli nited in number, and consist mainly of silver medals, awarded to the proprietor and to foremen and nightmen. The stables and the foremen are not always graded alike. Someimes a foreman makes poor use of the facili- ties at his command, and, more often, a good foreman has to struggle against pDor facilities and bad drivers. The Judges are the most expert and impartial men that we can find in Boston or elsewhere. Their reports are confidential, and are communicated only to the proprietor of the stable. Among the p3ints considered by the Judges are quality and quantity of hay and grain, watering, bedding, blanketing, grooming, ventilation, stalls, sanitary condition of stable, and the handling of the horses by grooms and drivers. The stable inspection is availed of more and more every year, espe- cially by large concerns. We had forty entries this year, and the num- ber of horses owned by each pers >n or corporation varied from one to three and four hundred. The total number of horses in the stables inspected was over two thousand. Many large concerns, especially corporations, leave their stable management wholly to subordinates, and often do not know whether it is good or bad, or how .it could be improved. There are men working alone at night n city stables, old employees in many cases, as to whom the question is never asked whether they do their work well or ill. Most of these men are faithful. A few of them have been unearthed b}' our stable inspection Judge's, and it is pathetic to see how pleased and sur- prised they are to find thit any human being takes an interest in them or in their work. No amount of system cai compensate for the want of this personal interest in the horses and in the men who take care of them. It should be the business of some person in authority in every concern to know how the horses look and feel, whether the men in charge are faithful or not, how long they have been in the service, what suggestions they have to make, and so forth. It seems to be the policy of man}- large corpora- tions and firms to treat men and horses alike as if they were machines. This is not good "business," to say nothing of humanity. The following matters especially have been forced upon the attention of the Judges: 1. That if the men are on good terms with the employer, the horses are usually well treated ; whereas, if the men are dissatis- fied, the horses are always badly treated. 2. That the worst enemy of the horse is intoxicating liquor in the driver or stableman. 3. That in many stables, especially trucking stables, there is an insufficient force on Sundays, so that the horses are not proper- ly cleaned, bedded or watered. 4. That in many stables, otherwise excellent, the horses are not watered at night after eating their hay, when they are always thirsty. 5. That in case of many large concerns the stable treatment is almost perfect, but the drivers hurry the horses when they start out in the morning, or after the noon feed, and also hurry them to the stable at night, bringing them in hot. This is especially true of the lighter horses, such as those used by bakers, milk dealers and department stores. For the prizes awarded this year see the pages at the end of the entry list. The Association is indebted to the following Stable Judges for their very careful and conscientious work: Dr. J. H. RoLLix^j Joseph B. Matthews R. A. Kennett Gilbert H. Prescott EIGHTH ANNUAL PARADE, 1910 ■" NY horse that is dock-tailed, sick, lame, thin, galled, or out of condition will be disqualified. Every entry not disqualified will receive a ribbon, either first (blue), second (red), or third (yellow). In the Old Horse Class highly commended ribbons are awarded, which are equivalent to third prizes in other classes. Each blue ribbon winner will receive a brass medal to be worn as a permanent ornament on the harness. There is no restriction upon the number or grade of ribbons to be awarded. The Judges may award such ribbons as they deem to be deserved, subject to the following rules: (i) Age counts in favor of a horse. (2) Blue ribbons or first prizes are not to be awarded to green horses, and, if possible, not to horses who have worked less than one year. (3) Blue ribbons or first prizes are not to be awarded to any horse, unless, allowing for the imperfections of age, he is a horse of good type and good quality.* MANNERS Manners should be considered, as showing whether or not the horse has been treated kindly. COLOR The color of a horse does not count, even in respect to matched pairs. THE VEHICLE The vehicle does not count, except that a vehicle too heavy for the horse or horses drawing it should either disqualify the entry, or reduce the grade of ribbon which it is to receive. For what is meant by quality, see the pages at the end of the catalogue. THE HARNESS The value or beauty of the harness does not count ; but a harness that is dirty, too heavy, especially in the bridle, or ill- fitting, especially in the collar, counts against the entry. Many a good horse has failed to receive a prize in former years by reason of his collar being too small or too large, or for some other defect in the harness. Throat-latches too tight, and inside reins too long, in the case of pairs, are also common defects. Harness that is light, but strong enough to do the work required of it, is preferred to heavier harness. This rule will be observed especially in respect to bridles and other parts in which great strength is not required. Brass frontlets, unnecessary rings, tassels, plumes and other ornaments should not be used. Housings for collars, except for use in rain-storms, are strong- ly disapproved by the Association as being unnecessary, expensive and adding to the weight of the harness. The single harness approved by the Association, and shown in a photograph printed in this catalogue, weighs onl}' 53 pounds, collar and all, and it is big enough for any 1350-pound horse. Horses of that weight frequently carry a harness weighing 70 or 80 pounds. The bridle shown in the photograph weighs less than two pounds — about half the usual weight. DRIVERS- BADGES A medal or badge, to be worn on the person, will be given to ever}- driver who shows in the Parade, in good condition and serviceably sound, the same horse or horses shown by him in the Parade of the year before. (In the case of four-horse teams, it will be sufficient if three of the horses were shown by him the previous 3 ear.) A gold badge will be given to the most meritorious driver, all things considered; and silver badges will be given to the ten who rank next.* It is believed that every good driver in Boston will be ambitious to obtain one of these badges, and that possession of the badge will be the best recommendation that a driver could have. *In 1909 the gold badge was awarded to Giiildp'ord D. Saunders of the Fells Ice Company and the following received silver badges : — George Benham W. H. Bryson K. Demerritt G. F. Seamon J. J. Brady Remus Bert M. J. Griffin W.m. II. Vaughn Edgar Bryson Levi Clark G. C Lienharu Fred. Weir SPECIAL PRIZES In memory of R. A. Lawrence, its lirst President, the Association offers a gold medal to the owner and a silver medal ^o tli« driver, for the best four-horse team \n the Parade, provided also that the driver tikes care of his horses. There are second and third prizes in this Class. Other special prizes, consisting of gold and silver medals and sums of money, are offered in the Veteran Driver, Old Horse and other classes by the fallowing: Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, American Humane Education Society, Animal Rescue League, Red Acre Farm, Miss E. K. Forgan, Mrs. Arthur Foote, Miss Katherine Foote, Miss Julia H. Worthington, Mrs. Amanda Dwight, George W. Harrington, W. D. Qj-]imb3% Benj. W. Wells, James Forgies' Sons, The Mark Cross Company, The London Harness Company, and others. These will be found specified in the entry list below. DRIVING COMPETITION A Driving Competition for four, and another for si\-in-hand teams will be held in or near Cominonwealth Avenue, while the judging is taking place. Entries for this competition need not be made beforehand. The first prize will be a silver medal, to go to the driver. U. S. LETTER CARRIERS There is a class for the Letter Carriers in the Boston District who have horses; of these there are about thirt3'-five. Their 3'earl3' allowance for providing and maintaining a horse and wagon is onl}' S3 25. This sum is grossl}' inadequate. The men do th iir best, but their horses and wagons make a poor showing. Onl}' three have made entries in the Parade of 1910. NOTICE TO SPECTATORS In many cases imperfections, not always visib'e to spectators at the reviewing stand, very properly prohibit the giving of a prize or a ribbon of high grade to a particular horse. The horses pass the reviewing stand at a walk, and at that gait a slight lameness would not be disclos'ed, whereas the Judges would have detected it when the horses were shown to them at a trot. Moreover, defects in harnessing, sores or galls under the harness, and other imperfections, not always apparent, frequently exclude a tine horse, or team of horses, from high honors. It should be remembered, too, that in this Exhibition age c and that yreen horses are discriminated against. remembered, too, that in this Exhibition age counts in favor of a horse NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC When any person exhibits a horse in the Parade, it may be taken as nearly certain that his horses in general are well cared for and in good condition. This is a point upon which the Association insists; and every year entries of tine horses are rejected because the other horses belonging to the same owner are not in good condition. Owing to the difficulty of inspecting so many horses it sometimes happens that entries appear in the catalogue, but are excluded from the Parade. An exhibit in the Parade has come to have a considerable advertising value; and intending exhibitors are hereby warned that no entry will be accepted from one whose whole stable will not bear inspection. THE JUDGES If the principles upon which the prizes are awarded be kept in mind, the Association believes that there will be very little dissatisfaction with the decisions of the Judges. Increasing care has been taken each year in the selection of them; those who were incompetent, or inhumane toward their own horses, have been excluded; ard the Association is confident that its Judges now form a band of men as competent and impartial as could be secured. To be numbered among them is regarded as an honor, and many applications for the position are rejected by the Association. The Judges render their arduous and difficult service without com- pensation, although many of them come from distant points, and the Association hereby expresses its gratitude for their generous assistance. POINTS OF A GOOD STABLE. Horses walked on starting out in the morning, and after the coon feed. Men bring the horses in at noon, and at night, cool and breathing easily. Legs well rubbed if wet or muddy, or if the horses are tired. Head, ears and neck well rubbed, if wet from rain or sweat. Horses sponged under collar and saddle. Horses well brushed if dry. Feet washed and examined for nails. Eyes, nose and dock sponged in summer. In very hot weather, and then only, horses wiped all over with a wet sponge on coming in. (This does not mean wash- ing the horse, much less turning the hose on him.) Horses given a little water, but not much, on coming in warm. No grain fed for at least an hour. Horses watered when cool, then hayed, watered again, and grained. (In any case, watered at night, after eating their hay. This is especially necessary in summer.) Plenty of bedding, and horses bedded down all day Sunday. Hay and grain of the best quality. A bran mash Saturday night or Sunday noon; cool in summer, hot in winter. Horses sidted in the bran mash, or other- wise, with regularity. Hayloft kept clean. Harness, especially collars, kept clean. Wide stalls. Easy runway. Horses tied long, so that they can lie with heads on the floor. Plenty of fresh air, but no draughts. No fumes from manure pit. Stalls not boarded up, but open or grated in the upper part. Drying-room for wet blankets. Stable quiet at night and on Sundays. Horses cleaned Sunday morning. Slatted outside doors for hot weather. Stable foreman good tempered, not a drinking man, and able to keep the drivers up to the mark. Comfortable room, with a bathtub, for the man in charge. Most important of all — Horses handled gently, neither struck, nor yelled at, nor sworn at. Owner drops in often. POINTS OF A BAD STABLE Horses hurried on starting in the morn- ing, and after the noon feed. Horses brought in hot and breathing hard. Harness stripped off roughly, and horses rushed into stalls without rubl)ing, cleaning, or sponging. Horses' legs washed. Horses allowed to drink their fill, no matter how hot ; or not watered at all. Grain fed before the horses are rested. Feet not washed or examined until the horse goes lame. Horses receive no water after eating their hay, until next morning. Scanty bedding. No bedding on Sundays until night, and horses watered only twice. Hay and grain of poor quality. Bran mash not given — too much trouble. Horses salted only when somebody happens to think of it. Hayloft dusty and dirty. Harness unclean ; sweat allowed to accumulate on inside of collars. Narrow stalls. Steep runway with narrow turns. Horses tied short for fear of their being cast, as is likely when they are put up dirty. Stable close — no ventilating shaft. Windows dirty. Manure pit ventilates into stable. Stalls boarded up high, where the horses heads are. Men loafing in the stable in the evening and on Sunday. Horses not cleaned on Sunday. Windows broken ; doors left open ; cold draughts in winter. No slatted outside doors for hot nights. No place for drying w'et blankets. Uncomfortable room for man in charge ; no bathtub. Stable foreman addicted to drink. Drivers imitate the foreman. Worst of all — Horses handled roughly, knocked about ; general atmosphere of noise and profanity. Owner never sees the horses taken out or put up, nor on Sundays. C H I E: F MARSHAL. JOSHUA ATWOOD, 3RD Francis Peabody, Jk. Arthur Perrin Austin Peters, M. R. C. V. S. John H. Jewett William D.

Our dairies are frequently visited ty trained inspectors to secure clean, KealtKy cows — well ligkted and ventilated cow- stables — milk rooms aud supplies of ice. CL Oiii" contract witk producers states that in case of tke outbreak of any infectious disease at tke farm, shipment of milk shall be stopped and during the period of quarantine the milk kept at home w^iU be paid for by us. C Our milk is transported to the city in refrigerator cars m ex- press trains and is received in a modern plant w^ith every facility for the sanitary handling of milk, viz., — machinery for the cleans- ing of cans and bottles by caustic alkalies and steam — filling of bottles by automatic apparatus eliminating handling by men — lav- atories and shower baths for employees — steam laundry for the cleansing of employees' suits — a chemical laboratory to guard the richness of our milk — a bacteriological laboratory to guard the cleanliness of our milk. CL ^Ve do not stop with this but finally subject our milk to Pasteurization in recently perfected apparatus w^hich holds the milk for thirty minutes at a temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. This treatment destroys any germs of disease which may have reached milk in spite of the above described system of precaution. Pasteurizing under these conditions : Does not affect the rising of cream Does not impart any cooked flavor Does not change in any appreciable w^ay the digestibility of milk. C No large milk supply in the world surpasses the protection ottered by WHITING'S MILK CLASS 7— CITIES AND TOWNS STREET DEPARTMENT The Judges may award such ribbons, First, Second, or Third, as they deem to be deserved.

One fact has often forced itself upon the attention of the Directors, namely, that the welfare of the work-horse is bound up with the welfare of the men who drive and care for him. In stables where the men are well paid and are treated with kindness and con- sideration by the proprietors, the horses, in turn, are well treated by the men, and look sleek and contented. On the other hand, in stables where there is a bad feeling, or utter want of good feeling, between the em- plover and his men, the horses suffer ac- cordingly. Recognizing these facts, some l)ublic-spirited women in New York and also in Chicago have recently organized clubs for teamsters, and even clubs for teamsters' wives. This is a step in the right direction. Bad teamsters seem to gravitate natu- rally to employers who do not really care about their horses. If the owner is a hu- mane man, the spirit of humanity will per- vade his whole business. If he is cruel, or simply indifferent, a spirit of brutality, or at least of selfish indifference, will run through his force. The highly developed nervous system of the horse renders him peculiarly capable of suffering. Rough usage, even if it stops far short of absolute brutality, keeps him in a constant state of fear or irritation. .\nvone who is accustomed to observe horses can tell by a single glance at a given horse whether the driver is a good, bad, or indifferent one. The expression of the ani- mal's eye and the carriage of his ears tell the story unmistakably. There are many teamsters who treat the horse as if he were a machine, and there- fore are guilty of C( ml inual cruelty toward him, which reacts on their own characters. Such men miss the opportimity of their lives, and their daily labor becomes a deg- radation and a curse to them. On the other hand, there are man}- hu- mane drivers, who have a real affection for their horses, and take the greatest pride in their appearance. These men make good husbands, good fathers, good citizens ; and their daily lal)or is not onl}- a means of livelihood, but a constant source of happi- ness. To reward and increase this class is the main object of the Boston Work-Horse Parade Association. QUALITY IX WORK HORSES. Our judges are instructed not to award blue ribbons or first prizes to any horse, no matter how good his condition, unless he is a horse of good type and quality. Quality, it need not be said, is just as important in a work horse as in a race horse. Quality might perhaps be described as that fineness of texture which good breeding produces. The bone in a well-bred horse is more dense and less brittle than the bone of a coarse-bred animal. It is true, of course, that well-bred horses are sometimes defi- cient in quality, but no horse has quality unless he is well-bred. The horse with quality has more endurance, and he is less subject to disease and to unsoundness of feet and legs than is the low-bred horse. Consequently it is more humane to use horses with quality than those without (|uality. Quality and beauty are usually found together, and yet. as all horsemen know, one may exist without the other. A horse may have quality without being in the least beautiful. For example, he may have a yewe neck, a large head, long ears, a Roman nose, a swav back, flat sides, slack loins, calf-knees, cow hocks and a rat tail ; and yet if his coat is short and silk}-, if his head thous^h large is bony and well-cut. if his ears thous^^h long- are well-shaped, if his lei^s are flat and clean, and if his hoofs are of fine, close texture, then the horse has quality. Horses of the Shire and Clyde breeds often look coarse at first sight on ac- count of their Roman noses and hairy legs, but in the best specimens of these breeds the long hair about the fetlocks is fine and silky, and their heads, though not hand- so!iie. are clean-cut. Quality is thus described by Professor Rufus C. Obrecht of the University of Illinois : "Quality in a horse is of prime importance. This term when applied to horses has reference to their bones, skin. hair, and muscles. Its presence is shown Ijy clean-cut features of the head ; firm, clean bone; tendons well defined; close fit- ting, glove-like skin; hair fine and silky; an abundance of finish and absence of coarseness, but not necessarily small bone. When slightly exerted the skin will show clearly an intricate net work of veins. Coarse hair is usually associated with a coarse skin and a soft spongy bone which is weak and subject to disease. With qual- ity the muscles stand out prominently and are clearly defined, which aids in giving a horse finish. Quality is a strong indication of the extent of a horse's endurance. These two characteristics are closely associated, and a horse lacking in quality is compara- tively a cheap animal." (DistiibuU-a by the Mass. S. P. C. A.) To THEE, MY MASTER, I offer my prayer : Feed me, water and care for me, and, when the day's -work is done, provide me with shelter, a clean dry bed and a stall wide enough for me to lie down in comfort. Always be kind to me. Talk to me. Your voice often means as much to me as the reins. Pet me sometimes, that I may serve you the more gladly and learn to love you. Do not jerk the reins, and do not whip me when going up hill. Never strike, beat or kick me when I do not under- stand what you want, but give me a chance to understand you. Watch me, and if I fail to do your bidding, see if something is not wrong with my harness or feet. Do not check me so that I cannot have the free use of my head. If you insist that I wear blinders, so that I cannot see behind me as it was intended I should, I pray you be careful that the blinders stand well out from my -eyes. Do not overload me, or hitch me where water will drip on me. Keep me well shod. Examine my teeth -when I do not eat, I may have an ulcerated tooth, and that, you know, is very painful. Do not tie my head in an unnatural position, or take away my best defense against flies and mosquitoes by cutting off my tail. I cannot tell you when I am thirsty, so give me clean cool water often. Save me, by all means in your power, from that fatal disease — the glanders. I cannot tell you in words when I am sick, so watch me, that by signs you may know my condition. Give me all possible shelter from the hot sun, and put a blanket on me, not when I am working, but when I am standing in the cold. Never put a frosty bit in my mouth; first warm it by holding it a moment in your hands. I try to carry you and your burdens without a murmur, and wait patiently for you long hours of the day or night. Without the power to choose my shoes or path, I sometimes fall on the hard pavements which I have often prayed might not be of wood but of such a nature as to give me a safe and sure footing. Remember that I must be ready at any moment to lose my life in your service. And finally, O MY MASTER, when my useful strength is gone, do not turn me out to starve or freeze, or sell me to some cruel owner, to be slowly tortured and starved to death ; but do Thou, My Master, take my life in the kindest way, and your God will reward you here and hereafter. You will not consider me irreverent if I ask this in the name of Ilim who was born in a Stable. — Amen. BULLETIN No. 1, ISSUED IN DECEMBER, 1909. WATERING AND BEDDING. During the past five months an agent of this Association has visited 157 stables, including almost all the large livery and boarding stables, in Boston and the neigh- boring cities and towns. One object of these inspections was to ascertain the prac- tice in regard to watering the horses during the night, after they have eaten their hay, and in regard to bedding them in the day time, as well as at night, especially on Sun- days. The agent submits the following re- port : — THE WATERING OF HORSES AT NIGHT. In most cases all the hay which horses in the city receive is fed to them at night. It is therefore especially important that they should be watered during the night. In an inspection of over 150 of the leading hv- ery and boarding stables in Boston and the vicinity, particular attention was paid to this matter. All authorities agree, and ex- perience teaches, that city horses should be watered between 8 P. M. (9 P. M. would he better) and midnight; but it was found that less than half of the stables visited give their horses water after 7 P. M. And yet more stablemen volunteered in- formation on this subject than upon any other matter considered in the five months •during which the investigations were made. "A horse comes in hungry," was the usual way of putting it, "and he wants his sup- per so much that he will drink but little; and he ought not to drink deeply at that time, even if he wanted to. Then he eats a quantity of dry, heating food. He shouldn't have water right after eating; but if he doesn't get a good drink two or three hours later, he will go through the night thirsty, and the heating food will burn out his insides for the lack of the water that is needed to give the nourish- ment of the food a chance to do the good it ought to be doing." Moreover, a horse not watered at night is very apt to drink too much in the morning. This night watering is not onlv common humanity in hot weather, but it is almost equally valuable in winter. For appetite comes with the bracing effect of cold weather, and horses eat more than they do in summer. Consequently, if this extra food is to do its part in giving the horse power to resist the cold and the strain of winter work, water must be given at the time when it will do the most good, which is, in most cases, between 8 and 10 P. AI., or even later. Nothing does so much toward giving back a return for the food given in the way of extra strength, working endur- ance and good condition. The effect of this night watering on the blood and general circulation is far reach- ing. The thirst that follows the digestion of a meal is the call of nature for the water that is needed to help the good of the food to get into the flesh and blood of the ani- mal; and equally important is the part plaved by the water in sending the waste matter out of the body with the least pos- sible wear and tear on the organs that per- form this indispensable duty. A horse that remains thirsty all night cannot be ex- pected to last so long as one that is wa- tered at the proper time.* *If anyone doubts whether horses need watering at night, let him go into a stable, sav at 9 v. yi., turn loose the horses which have not been watered since they were fed. and observe how eagerly they will make for the watering-trough.— H. C. M. r.EDDIX'G AND REST. There were twenty-five horses in a stable not far from T.oston that was visited one Sundav mornino-. The horses were a fair, averao-e lot of the kind used in delivery wagons and in general business. Most of them were in reasonably good working or- der, and the stable had the appearance of i e'Pg well-kept. Of the twenty-five horses in the stable, twentv-four were standing up and just one was Iving down. In twenty-four stalls there was no bedding; in one there was a good supply. One doesn't have to be a wizard to guess that the horse that was getting a needed rest was in the same stall with the bedding. All the other horses were being deprived of what might be the best part of their Sunday, namely, the op- portunity of taking their weight off legs and feet that usually have all, and more than they can do to stand the strain of the week-day wear and tear. In another stable there is a horse that works in a single grocery wagon. He is be- tween the shafts three days, but every fourth day remains in the stable. Each morning brings him exactly the same breakfast, and there is absolutely nothing in the care given that tells him wdiether he is to go out or stay in. But he knows how to keep his own calendar, and every fourth morning, just as soon as he has finished eating, he lies down in comfort on the plen- tiful supply of bedding which is kept under every horse in that stable at all times ; and he frequently stays down the better part of the day. In still another stable there are pairs of horses that are used half a day and rested the other half. Encouraged by plenty of bedding, they have formed habits of resting their legs and feet at every possible oppor- tunity. There is an old saying that a good city horse could use up four sets of legs and feet. This means that a large part of his bodily strength and endurance is wasted because lameness and suft'ering wear out the unfortunate animal long before his time. "His shoulders is all gone savin' his legs," was the way one stableman described the condition of a horse who had worked his body muscles to pieces in trying to ease the strain on his battered legs and feet. As in the case of watering at night, the extra expense of giving a day-time bed to a horse is slight, compared with the great benefit gained from the rest and chance for repairs given the legs. The good that comes out of this is reflected in the condi- tion of the whole body; and all who own horses should see that this chance for needed rest is given their horses whenever they are in the stable. A horse will not lie down on stable planks unless worn and weary beyond the point where it is right to- use any animal. STATISTICS.

BULLETIN No. 2. ISSUED IN MAY, J9t0. THE DISPOSAL OF OLD HORSES. The world owes a duty to the old, worn- out horse, and many events of recent oc- currence show that the community is hc- i^innins;' to realize this fact. It is as cruel as it is irrational to treat him like an old machine, to he disposed of in any manner whatever, when he has ceased to be useful to his master. He is a creature equally capable with man of suffering- pain. In fact, the horse, owing to the painful dis- eases to which he is subject in the bones of the feet and legs, may truly be described as the most unfortunate animal in the world. It is known to everybody familiar with the subject that certain forms of lameness, especially spavin, produce a peculiar emaci- ation and shrinking of the loins of the horse, simply from pain. It is impossible to keep such a horse fat even if he does no work whatever. What then must be his sufferings when he is compelled to work every day, and, as is often the case, to haul heavy loads ! If the horse could cry out when he was in pain the world would not endure his suf- ferings for a (lav. Moreover, the nervous system of the horse greatly tends to increase his suffer- ings. In nine cases out of ten the horse is a more nervous animal than the man who drives him, and more likely to be annoyed and worried Ijy little things. For these reasons and many others that might be mentioned, it is the duty of every horse-owner to refrain from selling his old horse as he would sell a thing without life or feeling. It is true that some men still take the opposite view. For example, a member of a well-known lumber concern in Boston recently said : ''We buy horses for j what there is in them and dispose of them i when they are no longer suitable for us; ^ we have no sentiment in the matter at all." Such men, we are thankful to say, are be- coming fewer in numljer, and the time is net very far distant when they will be re- garded with abhorrence l:)y the community in general. The State of Xew York passed a law in 1907 providing that worn-out horses in the fire department and other departments of the city of New York shall not be sold at auction as was formerly the case, but shall be handed over to the Humane Society in that cit\-, which agrees to take care of them. A similar law was passed in Massachusetts in the year 1908. The Massachusetts law provides that any cit}- or town in the Com- monwealth may turn over old or disabled horses that have been used in the fire de- partment, or in any other department of the city or town, to Red Acre Farm,*or to any other incorporated charitable society for the care and protection of horses. The law l)rovides that such horses shall never be sold or given away, but shall remain in the custody of the society taking charge of them. Several years ago a horse that had long done service in Maine for the United States government was pensioned for life *Red Acre Farm is about 25 miles frcm Bostcn in the town of Stow. The raih-oad station and post office are South Acton on the Fitchburg branch of the Boston and Maine R. R. The tek phone is West Acton No. 8. Any horse, sent by anybody from any place, will be received at the Farm and cared for. If the owner is unable to pay anything, nothintr will be charcred. by the government. This fact was stated in a Maine newspaper, and thence it was quoted in newspapers all over the country, and invariably with approval. Of course it cannot be expected that no- body should ever sell a horse ; but every owner of horses, and especially large firms and corporations, should draw the line somewhere. In the first place, they should lay down a rule that no horse that has be- come worn-out in their service should be sold, and, secondly, their disposal of horses not worn-out, but still unfit for their partic- ular work, should be as humane as is pos- sible under all the circumstances of the case. It seems almost incredible that after a horse has served his owner for many years he should, in his old age, be sold to the first pedlar or other person that comes along ; and yet that is sometimes done. For example, two years ago a horse that had been owned and worked by a trucking firm for fifteen years, and had become worn-out and really unfit for any labor, was sold to the first purchaser that appeared in the stable without inquiry or investigation. It is plain that the disposal of the horse should depend upon several circumstances. First, on the wealth of the owner, for ob- viously a rich man or firm can afiford to be more humane than a poor man. Secondly, it should depend upon the age and condi- tion of the horse. And, thirdly, on the number of years he had been used by the concern. Corporations in which everything is done by rule, no allowance being made for individual cases, should at least make it a rule not to sell horses who have labored for them for a certain number of years, say, ten years and upwards. Such horses, to use a common expression, "owe them noth- ing." When these animals become unfit for further use, the corporation should either kill them or make some other humane dis- position of them. Another way of getting at the matter is to fix a price below which a horse should not l)e sold. Many firms, for example, do not sell a horse that will not bring $50 or more in the market. If his market price is lower than that, they cause the horse to be killed. Another firm fixes the price at $75, and mercifully kills any horse whose mar- ket value falls below that. For this pur- pose $75 certainly is none too high as things now are. The price of horses, espe- cially of second-hand horses, is so ex- tremely high that it is really difficult to pur- chase in any Eastern city for less than $75 a horse that can be worked without actual cruelty. But if the old, worn-out or lame horse is to be sold, at least let some care be taken to find a good home for him — or a home not so bad as the worst. There is now such a demand for cheap horses that, with some trouble, it is possible to make a selection among purchasers. This does not amount to much, but it is a little better than selling to the first customer. The most humane owners are those who never sell a discarded horse. Thus a well- known coal dealer, when questioned on this subject said:— "When a horse is no longer good for us, he is not good for any one else. We shoot him." This sounds rather harsh : is death the best rew^ard that the old horse can expect for long years of faithful service? Yes. it is; and death is a thou- sand times more humane than to sell the old horse, or even to give him away. No old horse, in fact, should ever be given away. Lend him if you will ; but keep track of him, and get him back if he is being abused. Long experience has convinced the writer of this Bulletin that only about one man in a hundred will take good care of a horse for which he has paid nothing. And here it should be said, parentheti- cally, that Ijv far the most humane manner of killing a horse is t(j sIkjoI liini. A horse can he killed hy the use of chloroform, hut the operation is difficult and recjuires an ex- pert. I"V)ra man without special knowledge or experience to attempt to kill a horse in tiiis way might he a matter of great cruelty. Some horrible scenes have been witnessed when an inexperienced man has endeavored to chloroform a horse. Great care also should he taken to make sure that the horse which the owner in- tends to be killed really is killed, and is not sold by some corrupt em])loyee. Several months ago, a horse in Uoston was in- trusted to a stable hanger-on to be led to a rendering company and killed. A black- smilli saw the horse as he was being led through the streets and bought him from the man in charge for $50. Another case of the same sort occurred not long before; and recently an agent of the M. S. P. C. A. happened to overhear a conversation be- tween a man on the sidewalk and the driver of a dead-horse wagon as to the purchase of a horse led behind the wagon. The agent compelled the driver to shoot the horse then and there. Some horse-owners, esjiecially corpora- tions, have large farms in the countrv, or have some connection with a farm where they send such of their horses as are fit for light work, but no longer fit for city work. The Adams Express Company, for ex- ample, has a fanu in Pennsylvania where 125 horses can be pastured. Other owners send their horses to farms owned by them- selves or by their friends or relatives, and this method of disposing of the old horse is certainly to 1)e commended, provided that sufficient care is taken in the selection of the farm. But to sell or give a horse to a farmer — to any chance farmer — without making sure that he is of the right sort, is about as dangerous a thing as could be done with him. Farmers in general feed their horses less grain and take less care of them than an\ other horse-owners in the world. As a rule they also give them almost no cleaning and little or no bedding. Every farmer has an opportunity to procure bed- ding at very slight cost. There is always meadow^ hay which he can cut on his own land or obtain for nothing, or almost that, on the land of another, and it is also, of course, always possible for a farmer to dry the liedding which he uses, for he has an unlimited amount of space and sun. There is, therefore, every reason why a farmer's horse should be well bedded. LUit as a mat- ter of fact, the farmers' horses are apt to lie on hard boards even in winter. Almost all horses used in the city are w'ell grained, and the old horse whose grain is suddenly withdrawal, suffers much for want of it. Even in a rich pasture, an old horse accus- tomed to grain will rapidly fall 0& in flesh if he no longer receives it. Those who look upon the farm as a sort of paradise fof horses think of it only in suiumer when the grass is sweet and the trees afford a pleasant shade ; but for the greater part of the year the grass is dead, and the horse is kept in a barn which is apt to be full of holes, cold, and in every way uncomfortable. Some horse-owners manage to carry their old horses along, giving them such light work as they are fit to perform, and finally keeping them in the stable most of the time and in some cases all the time. This, we are glad to say, is largely the practice of the Txiston Elevated Railway Company and of the Metropolitan Coal Company in Bos- ton. In a big concern the hay, grain and bedding that a few old horses require would add very little to the expense of the stable. Old horses so kept on are not sub- jected to the homesickness wdiich is caused b}- new sm-roundings, nor are they sepa- rated from their old companions. Any stable keeper of experience will testify that when a pair of horses is broken up, one be- ing sold or otherwise disposed of, the one that is left behind will lose fiesh and spirit, and it will be long before he recovers from his silent grief at the loss of his mate. To sum up : — The best thing that can be (lone for the old, worn-out horse is of course to give him a good home in the country — such a home as it is exceedingly hard to find. The next best thing is to keep him in his old stall in the city stable, where he becomes a guest — no longer a boarder, hut practically a pensioner, freely supported in consideration of his past services. The third best fate for the old horse is the ■ swift bullet that saves him from a slow death by semi-starvation, cold, pain and homesickness. ]\Ian works for his living, I work for my death. Shall we refuse him even this? HEXRY C. MERWIN. SUMMARY. In making this investigation 76 concerns were interviewed. Of these 16 sell their horses while still comparatively young. The remaining 60 are classified as follows, a few appearing in more than one of the groups. 1 Concerns which never sell a horse below $75 I 2 Concerns which never sell a horse below $50 5 3 Concerns which put worn-out horses on their own or relatives' or carefully selected farms 15 4 Concerns exercising care regarding whom they sell to 16 5 Concerns which keep old horses until their condition is such that they must be killed 14 6 Concerns which kill their horses when no longer fit for the work required of them 14 7 Concerns which sell to the first comer 11 8 Unclassified concerns, from new- ness of stables, deficient informa- tion, etc 5 LIST OF ADV Albie.ht, William Allston Hand Laundry. .

OFFICE, (OPEN THROUGHOUT THE YEAR) 15 BEACON STREET, ROOM 27 WORK-HORSE PARADES HE Work-Horse Parade originated in England, and for many years it has been an annual event in London and Liverpool. The first parade of the kind in this country was held in Boston on Memorial Day, May 30, 1903, by ten or twelve men who had previously been unacquainted with one another, but who were drawn together by their interest in horses, — especially in the ill-treated horse. Soon afterward they were incorpo- rated under the name of the "Boston Work-Horse Parade Association;" and we beg that all humane persons who have property to dispose of will bear this title in mind. The Association has no endowment whatever, and the difficulty in raising the money necessary to carry out the parade is very great. Several of the Directors devote to it far more time and energy than they can afford to expend, outside of their regular occupation; and the want of funds is a continual source of anxiety. Every year the Parade increases in size and consequently in expense, and the very success of the Association seems likely to prove its ruin.* It is only through the great generosity of a few men and women, among whom are the widow and relatives of the late R. A. Lawrence, the founder and first President of the Association, that the Parade has been maintained for the past few years.. The Parade-idea is gradually extending over the continent, and, in every case, so far as we know, the Boston Parade has served as a model. This is true of New -York, Philadelphia, Chicago, Buffalo, New Orleans, Seattle, San Francisco, Toronto and Halifax. *THE NUMBER OF FIRMS REPRESENTED IN THE PARADE Year 1911 1910 1909 1908 1907 1906 1905 1904 1903 460 357 300 258 233 181 203 174 154 TOTAL NUMBER OF ENTRIES Year 1911 1910 1909 1908 1907 1906 1905 1904 1903 1016 906 847 738 685 593 530 444 433 PRIZES AWARDED Year 1st 2d 3rd 4th 5th H.

In particular cases, we shall be glad to furnish information and advice by personal letters or interviews. We have a collection of slides for a stere- opticon display of pictures of work-horses and other horses, and we are happy to lend these to any association or person desiring to use them. THE AMERICAN WORK-HORSE PARADE There is a marked diflerence between the English Parade and the American Parade. The English affair is mainly a Horse-Show of animals owned by rich corporations and concerns; whereas in our Parade every effort is made to reach and benefit the poor man and the poor man's horse. In all classes, except the championship classes, age counts in favor of the horse. The older the horse the higher he is graded, provided that his condition is good; and neither blindness nor blemishes disqualify him. The most interesting part of the Parade is the Old Horse class, and that is distinctly the poor man's opportunity. The highest honors in our Parade are the two gold medals, — the Lawrence medal for four-horse teams, cared for by the driver, and the gold medal for the best old horse. This last prize has been offered seven times; four times it was taken by a man who owned only the single horse which he exhibited; and once it was taken by a man who owned only two horses. Moreover in the classes where horses are most apt to be owned by poor men, we offer many special prizes of money and street blankets. These are the huckster, barrel-rack and local express classes. The Old Horse Class was originated by this Association, and it has been a success wherever tried, — not only in Work-Horse Parades, but at Cattle Shows and County Fairs. We earnestly recommend this class to the managers of Horse Shows and Fairs throughout the country. Another novelty, tried with great success last year, is the class for Reconstructed Horses, that is, horses that were run down by neglect or ill-usage and have been restored to health and strength by a new owner. OUR AGENTS During former years we have employed, most of the time, one or more Agents to go about among the poorer class of stables, and assist the owners of the horses with advice, medicine and other means. Much good was 4 done in this way. Men who treated their horses with cruelty were warned, and extreme cases, especially those of horses incurably lame or otherwise unfit for work, were reported to the Massachusetts S. P. C A. In such cases that Society will be found prompt to act. During the past year, for want of funds, we have been obliged to discontinue this missionary work. MEETINGS FOR DRIVERS Two " Smoke Talks " for Drivers, Stablemen, and all persons inter- ested in horses, were held in Kingsley Hall, at which an address was made by Dr. Rowley, President of the M. S. P. C. A., and stereopticon pictures of work-horses were shown and explained by the President of the Asso- ciation. These meetings w^ere largely attended and were very successful. The same pictures were shown by request at Wellesley College, at the Baptist Church in Winthrop, at a meeting of the South Worcester Agri- cultural Society in Southbridge, and at Providence, R. I., under the auspices of the Rhode Island Humane Education Society. One of our Directors attended, at his own expense, the meeting of the American Humane Asso- ciation at Washington, D. C, in October, 1910, making an address on Work-Horse Parades; and we were represented, on the same terms, by a Director who assisted at the Halifax Parade in September. RED ACRE FARM AND PINE RIDGE We act as agents for Red Acre Farm, the Home for Horses at Stow, and inquiries about the Farm, and how horses can be sent there, will be answered at any time by letter or telephone. Any horse, which is a subject for charity, may be sent to the Farm by anybody, at any time, without notice; and the animal will be cared for. The post-ofifice address of the Farm is South Acton, Mass. The railroad station is South Acton. The telephone is West Acton 8. Under the laws of Massachusetts (Chap. 133 of the Acts of the year 1908) cities and towns may turn over their old or disabled horses to Red Acre Farm, or to any other incorporated society for the relief of dumb animals. Boston, Somerville, Brookline, Waltham and other municipalities have availed themselves of this law, instead of selling the animals at auction. Pine Ridge, the annex at Dedham of the Animal Rescue League, is ready at any time to receive horses that need rest or treatment. Appli- cation should be made to the League at 51 Carver Street, Boston. Pine Ridge is only 10 miles out, and is thus a convenient place in which to give horses a vacation. There is a growing feeling in the conmiunity that old and worn-out or painfully lame horses ought not to be sold, but should be killed or other- wise disposed of in a humane manner. To sell a worn-out horse, and thus consign him to a slow and painful death, w^ll be looked upon years hence as an almost incredible cruelty. BULLETINS The Association issued last year a Bulletin on Feeding and Watering, by Gilbert Tompkins. This Bulletin has been widely read and highly commended. It is reprinted at the end of this catalogue, w^here will be found also a Bulletin, now first published, on Vacations for Work-Horses. We believe it to be a fact that an annual vacation for the work-horse, and especially for the old work-horse, is a matter not only of humanity, but of economy. A Bulletin answering the question — " Will the Motor- Wagon take the place of the Work-Horse?" by Gilbert Tompkins, may be had on applica- tion. It is an unprejudiced and careful examination of the subject. Another Bulletin on a subject most important, but never yet, we believe, practically treated, namely, the feeding of Work-Horses in the cityf will be prepared and published as soon as we have the money to pay for it. THE STABLE INSPECTION The most important activity of this Association, next to the Parade, and perhaps not second to that, is the system of Stable Inspection. Entries for this may be made at any time, and by stables of all kinds, including livery, hack and boarding stables. There is no entry fee. The stables are judged, not in competition wnth one another, but accordingly as they satisfy the standard fixed by the Association. The prizes are un- limited in number, and consist mainly of silver medals, awarded to the Ijrojjrietors and to foremen and nightmen. The stables and the foremen are not always graded alike. Sometimes a foreman makes poor use of the facilities at his command, and, more often, a good foreman has to struggle against poor facilities and bad drivers. The Inspectors are the most expert and impartial men that we can find in Boston or elsewhere. Their reports are confidential, and are communicated only to the proprietor of the stable. Among the pointsconsidercd by the Inspectors are quahty and quantity of hay and grain, watering, bedding, blanketing, grooming, ventilation, stalls, sanitary condition of stable, and the handling of the horses by grooms and drivers. The stable inspection is availed of more and more every year, espe- cially by large concerns. We had 74 entries this year, and the total number of horses in the stables inspected was about three thousand. Many large concerns, especially corporations, leave their stable man- agement wholly to subordinates, and often do not know whether it is good or bad, or how it could be improved. There are men working alone at night in large stables, old employees in many cases, as to whom the question is never asked whether they do their work well or ill. Most of these men are faithful. A few of them have been unearthed by our stable Inspectors, and it is pathetic to see how pleased and surprised they are to find that any human being takes an interest in them or in their work. No amount of system can compensate for the want of this personal interest in the horses and in the men who take care of them. It should be the business of some person in authority in every concern to know how the horses look and feel, whether the men in charge are faithful or not, how long they have been in the service, what sugges- tions they have to make, and so forth. It seems to be the policy of many large corporations and firms to treat men and horses alike as if they were machines. This is not good " business," to say nothing of humanity. Our Inspectors have found the most common faults in Work-Horse stables to be as follows: — (1) Scanty bedding. (2) Failure to bed the horses on Sundays and holidays in the daytime. (3) Failure to water the horses at night after they have eaten their hay. (4) Failure to keep the horses' feet soft. (5) Poor grooming. Appended is a copy of the printed form for the Inspector's report:— "The Inspectors are requested to report on the following matters and any others that may occur to them : — 1. How the horses are brought to the stable by the drivers, whether in a heated condition or not. 2. Manners and appearance of the horses, as showing whether they have been handled kindly or roughly. 3. Bodily condition of horses. 4. Condition of horses' feet. 5. Are the horses well groomed? 7 6. " Examine the horses for galls or other sores, and state how many, if any, are galled. 7. Is the harness clean and well oiled; and especially are the insides of the collars clean? 8. Ventilation of stable and hay loft. 9. Cleanliness of stable, hay loft and watering troughs. 10. Drainage, and disposal of manure. 11. Temperature of stable ; and whether the horses are subjected to draughts or not. 12. Size and character of stalls — width and length. 13. Amount of bedding; and are the horses bedded during the day on Sun- days, and when they stand in the stable on other days? 14. Hours of feeding and watering ; and especially are the horses watered after eating their hay at night? 15. Quality and amount of hay and grain fed. 16. Bran mash, — when given. 17. Salt, when and how given. 18. Blanketing of horses in stable. 19. (In large stables) is there a drying room for blankets? 20. Are there rain-covers for the horses, or two sets of blankets — one for wet weather? Remarks : Signature of Inspector." Date For the prizes awarded this year to stables and stablemen see the pages at the end of the entry list. The Association is indebted to the following Stable Inspectors for their very careful and conscientious work: — H. P. McManus J. W. Whitney R. A. Kennett J. H. RoLLiN Gilbert Tompkins Robert Mason Joseph B. Matthews NINTH ANNUAL PARADE, 1911 'NY horse that is dock-tailed, sick, lame, thin, galled, or out of condition will be disqualified. Every entry not disqualified will receive a ribbon, either first (blue), second (red), or third (yellow^). In the Old Horse Class highly commended ribbons are awarded, which are equivalent to third prizes in other classes. Each blue ribbon winner will receive a brass medal to be worn as a permanent ornament on the harness. There is no restriction upon the number or grade of ribbons to be aw^arded. The Judges may award such ribbons as they deem to be de- served, subject to the following rules: (1) Age counts in fa^"or of a horse. (2) Blue ribbons or first prizes are not to be awarded to green horses, and, if possible, not to horses who have worked less than one year. (3) Blue ribbons or first prizes are not to be aw^arded to any horse, unless allowing for the imperfections of age, he is a horse of good type and good quality.* MANNERS Manners should be considered, as showing whether or not the horse has been treated kindly. COLOR The color of a horse does not count, even in respect to matched pairs. THE VEHICLE The vehicle does not count, except that a vehicle too heavy tor the horse or horses drawing it should either disqualify the entry, or reduce the grade of ribbon which it is to receive. THE HARNESS The value or beauty of the harness does not count; but a harness that is dirty, too heavy, especially in the bridle, or ill-fitting, especially in the collar, counts against the entry. Many a good horse has failed to receive a prize in former years by reason of his collar being too small or too large, or for some other defect in the harness. Throat-latches too tight, and inside reins too long, in the case of pairs, are also common defects. ^For what is meant by quality, see the pages at the end of the catalogue. Harness that is light, but strong enough to do the work required of it, is preferred to heavier harness. This rule will be observed especially in respect to bridles and other parts in which great strength is not required. Brass frontlets, unnecessary rings, tassels, plumes and other ornaments should not be used. Housings for collars, except for use in rain-slorms, are strongly dis- appro\ ed by the Association as being unnecessary, expensive, and adding to the weight of the harness. The single harness approved by the Association, and shown in a photograph printed in this catalogue, weighs only 53 pounds, collar and all, anfl it is big enough for any 13o0-pound horse. Horses of that weight freciuenlly carry a harness weighing 70 or 80 pounds. The bridle shown in the photograph weighs less than two pounds — about half the usual weight. DRIVERS' BADGES A medal or badge, to be worn on the person, will be given to every driver who show-s in the Parade, in good condition and serviceably sound, the same horse or horses shown by him in the Parade of the year before. (In case of four-horse teams, it will be sufficient if three of the horses were shown by him the previous year.) A gold badge will be given to the most meritorious dri\'er, all things considered; and silver badges will be given to the twenty who rank next. It is believed that every good driver in Boston will be ambitious to obtain one of these badges, and that possession of the badge will be the best recommendation that a driver could have. SPECIAL PRIZES In memory of R. A. Lawrence, its first President, the Association offers a gold medal to the owner and a silver medal to the driver, for the best four-horse team in the Parade, provided also that the driver takes care of his horses. There are second and third prizes in this Class. Other special prizes, consisting of gold and silver medals and sums of money, are offered in the Veteran Driver, Old Horse and other classes by the following: Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelt\ to Animals, American Humane Education Society, Animal Rescue *In 1910 the gold badge was awarded to George Fred Seamoii, employed by Shattuck Sc Jones, and the following received silver badges: — Timothy Ahem Leonard Cook James Hagerty Thomas J. Lonergan William J. Burrows William E. Denvir Henry Harvey Jere O'Neil Frederick H. Collins Frank F. Dolahu Frank J. Higgins James H. Padden S. J. Richardson 10 League, Red Acre Farm, Miss E. K. Forgan, Mrs. A. G. Merwin, Mrs. Arthur Foote, Miss Katharine Foote, Miss Juha H. Worthington, Mrs. Amanda E, Dwight, George W. Harrington, W. D. Quimby, Benj. W. Wells, J. W. Whitney, James Forgies' Sons, The London Harness Company, and others. These will be found specified in the entry list below. DRIVING COMPETITION A Driving Competition for four-horse teams will be held in or near Commonwealth Avenue, while the judging is taking place. Entries for this competition need not be made beforehand. The first prize will be a silver medal, to go to the driver. U. S. LETTER CARRIERS There is a class for the Letter Carriers in the Boston District who have horses; of these there are about thirty-five. Their yearly allowance for providing and maintaining a horse and wagon is only $350. This sum is very inadequate. The men do their best, but their horses and wagons make a poor showing. Only one has made an entry in the Parade of 191L NOTICE TO SPECTATORS In many cases imperfections, not always visible to spectators at the reviewing-stand, very properly prohibit the giving of a prize or a ribbon of high grade to a particular horse. The horses pass the reviewing-stand at a walk, and at that gait a slight lameness would not be disclosed, whereas the Judges would have detected it when the horses were shown to them at a trot. Moreover, defects in harnessing, sores or galls under the harness, and other imperfections, not always apparent, frequently exclude a fine horse, or -team of horses, from high honors. It should be remembered, too, that in this Exhibition age counts in favor of a horse, and that green horses are discriminated against. SYSTEM OF JUDGING IN 1911 Those classes in which special prizes are awarded, namely. Fire De- partments, Old Horses, Reconstructed Horses, Four-Horse Teams, Owners and Foremen's Runabout Horses, Barrel-Racks, Hucksters, Local Expresses, and the five Championship classes, will be judged as formerly, that is, by two Judges for each class, who will inspect the horses, and see them move. The other classes, comprising about four-fifths of the Parade, will be judged by one set of Judges in the following manner: — As soon as the classes are in order, the}^ will start toward the reviewing- stand with a distance of twenty feet between each entry. 11 A veterinary surgeon will be stationed about 50 yards down the line, and the light horses will approach him at a slow trot, the heavy horses at a walk. He will inspect them as they come toward him, will halt them if necessary, and will shunt off from the line any that are lame. Those not so removed will proceed at a walk, and will be judged by two experts stationed 50 yards further toward the reviewing-stand. They will " size up " the horses as they approach, will halt them for a moment, if necessary, and will then decide on the grade of ribbon which the entry is to receive, — or will decide that the entry is to receive nothing; and their decision, without announcing it to the driver, will be telephoned by an assistant to the reviewing-stand. Each entry carries a number corresponding with the number in the catalogue, so that this can easily be done. Printed tags will be on hand, to be affixed to each entry, — but only for use in case some accident should happen to the telephone. In this way it is believed that the judging will be more uniform and satisfactory, and much time will be saved. NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC Is it not possible, we are often asked, for a man to have a few good- looking horses in the Parade, while at home he has five or ten times as many in poor condition? We answer, no. We reserve the right to inspect all the horses in the stable of an applicant for a place in the Parade; and every year we exclude many entries on the ground that the owner's treat- ment of his horses in general is not humane. In other cases, when the treat- ment of the owner's horses is good in most respects, but not up to the standard in others, we request the owner to make such reforms as are needed; and it is very seldom that he refuses. The advertising value of a place in the Parade is now very great, and we intend that no inhumane owner of a horse shall have the benefit of it. The Public may take the presence of a horse in this Parade as an assurance that the owner is a humane man in his treatment of horses generally. Our judges are selected upon the same principle. POINTS OF A GOOD STABLE Horses walked on starting out in the morning, and after the noon feed. Men bring the horses in at noon, and at night, cool and breathing easily. Legs well rubbed if wet or muddy, or if the horses are tired. Head, ears and neck well rubbed, if wet from rain or sweat. Horses sponged under collar and saddle. Horses well brushed if dry. Feet washed and examined for nails. Eyes, nose and dock sponged in summer. In very hot weather, and then only, horses wiped all over with a wet sponge on coming in. (This does not mean washing the horse, much less turning the hose on him.) Horses given a little water, but not much, on coming in warm. No grain fed for at least an hour. Horses watered when cool, then hayed, watered again, and grained. (In any case, watered at night, after eating their hay. This is especially necessary in summer.) Plenty of bedding, and horses bedded down all day Sunday. Hay and grain of the best quality. A bran mash Saturday night or Sun- day noon; cool in summer, hot in winter. Horses salted in the bran mash, or otherwise, with regularity. Hayloft kept clean. Harness, especially collars, kept clean. Wide stalls. Easy runway. Horses tied long, so that, they can lie with heads on the floor. Plenty of fresh air, but no draughts. No fumes from manure pit. Stalls not boarded up, but open or grated in the upper part. Drying-room for wet blankets. Stable quiet at night and on Sundays. Horses cleaned Sunday morning. Slatted outside doors for hot weather. Stable foreman good tempered, not a drinking man, and able to keep the drivers up to the mark. Comfortable room, with a bathtub, for the man in charge. Most important of all — Horses handled gently, neither struck, nor yelled at, nor sworn at. Owner drops in often. POINTS OF A BAD STABLE Horses hurried on starting in the morning, and after the noon feed. Horses brought in hot and breathing hard. Harness stripped off roughly, and horses rushed into stalls without rub- bing, cleaning or sponging. Horses' legs washed. Horses allowed to drink their fill, no matter how hot; or not watered at all. Grain fed before the horses are rested. Feet not washed or examined until the horse goes lame. Horses receive no water after eating their hay, until next morning. Scanty bedding. No bedding on Sundays until night, and horses watered only twice. Hay and grain of poor quality. Bran mash not given — too much trouble. Horses salted only when somebody happens to think of it. Hayloft dusty and dirty. Harness unclean; sweat allowed to accumulate on inside of collars. Narrow stalls. Steep runway, with narrow turns. Horses tied short for fear of their being cast, as is likely when they are put up dirty. Stable close — no ventilating shaft. Windows dirty. Manure pit ventilates into stable. Stalls boarded up high, where the horses heads are. Men loafing in the stable in the even- ing and on Sunday. Horses not cleaned on Sunday. Windows broken; doors left open; cold draughts in winter. No slatted outside doors for hot nights. No place for drying wet blankets. Uncomfortable room for man in charge; no bathtub. Stable foreman addicted to drink. Drivers imitate the foreman. Worst of all — -Horses handled roughly, knocked about; general atmosphere of noise and profanity. Owner never sees the horses taken out or put up, nor on Sundays. 13 WILLIAM D.

Steinberg Joseph Connolly 105 MEN AND HORSES One fact has often forced itself upon the attention of the Directors, namely, that the welfare of the work-horse is bound up with the welfare of the men who drive and care for him. In stables where the men are well paid and are treated with kindness and con- sideration by the proprietors, the horses, in turn, are well treated by the men, and look sleek and contented. On the other hand, in stables where there is bad feeling, or utter want of good feeling, between the em- ployer and his men, the horses suffer ac- cordingly. Recognizing these facts, some public-spirited women in New York and also in Chicago have recently organized clubs for teamsters, and even clubs for teamsters' wives. This is a step in the right direction. Bad teamsters seem to gravitate natu- rally to employers who do not really care about their horses. If the owner is a hu- mane man, the spirit of humanity will per- vade his whole business. If he is cruel or simply indifferent, a spirit of brutality, or at least of selfish indifference, will run through his force. The highly developed nervous system of the horse renders him peculiarly capable of suffering. Rough usage, even if it stops far short of absolute brutality, keeps him in a constant state of fear or irritation. Anyone who is accustomed to observe horses can tell by a single glance at a given horse whether the driver is a good, bad, or indifferent one. The expression of the animal's eye and the carriage of his ears tell the story unmistakably. There are many teamsters who treat the horse as if he were a machine, and there- fore are guilty of continual cruelty toward him, which reacts on their own characters. Such men miss the opportunity of their lives, and their daily labor becomes a deg- radation and a curse to them. On the other hand, there are many hu- mane drivers, who have a real affection for their horses, and take the greatest pride in their appearance. These men make good husbands, good fathers, good citizens; and their daily labor is not only a means of livelihood, but a constant source of happi- ness. To reward and increase this class is the main object of the Boston Work-Horse Parade Association. QUALITY IN WORK-HORSES Our judges are instructed not to award blue ribbons or first prizes to any horse, no matter how good his condition, unless he is a horse of good type and quality. Quality, it need not be said, is just as important in a work-horse as in a race-horse. Quality might perhaps be described as that fineness of texture which good breeding produces. The bone in a well-bred horse is more dense and less brittle than the bone of a coarse-bred animal. It is true, of course, that well-bred horses are sometimes defi- cient in quality, but no horse has quality unless he is well-bred. The horse with quality has more endurance, and he is less subject to disease and to unsoundness of feet and legs than is the low-bred horse. Consequently it is more humane to use horses with quality than those without quality. Quality and beauty are usually found together, and yet, as all horsemen know, one may exist without the other. A horse may have quality without being in the least beautiful. For example, he may jj have a yewe neck, a large head, long ears, ■ a Roman nose, a sway back, flat sides, slack loins, calf-knees, cow hocks and a rat tail; and yet if his coat is short and silky, if his head though large is bony and well-cut, if his ears tliough long are well-shaped, if his legs are flat and clean, and if his hoofs are of fine, close texture, then the horse has 106 quality. Horses of the Shire and Clyde ting, glove-like skin; hair fine and silky, breeds often look coarse at first sight on an abundance of finish and absence of account of their Roman noses and hairy coarseness, but not necessarily small legs, but in the best specimens of these bone. When slightly exerted the skin will breeds the long hair about the fetlocks is show clearly an intricate network of veins, fine and silky, and their heads, though not Coarse hair is usually associated with a handsome, are clean-cut. coarse skin and a soft, spongy bone which Quality is thus described by Professor is weak and subject to disease.

Cfje #ors;e's; draper (Distributed by the Mass. S. P. C. A.) To THEE, MY MASTER, I offer my prayer: Feed me, water and care for me, and, when the day's work is done, provide me with shelter, a clean, dry bed^nd a. stall wide enough for me to lie down in comfort. Always be kind to me. Talk to me. Your voice often means as much to me as the reins. Pet me sometimes, that I may serve you the more gladly and learn to love you. Do not jerk the reins, and do not whip me when going up hill. Never strike, beat or kick me when I do not understand what you want, but give me a chance to understand you. Watch me, and if I fail to do your bidding, see if something is not wrong with my harness or feet. Do not check me so that I cannot have the free use of my head. If you insist that I wear blinders, so that I cannot see behind me as it was intended I should, I pray you be careful that the blinders stand well out from my eyes. Do not overload me, or hitch me where water will drip on me. Keep me well shod. Examine my teeth when I do not eat. I may have an ulcerated tooth; and that, you know, is very painful. Do not tie my head in an unnatural position, or take away my best defense against flies and mosquitoes by cutting off my tail. I cannot tell you when I am thirsty, so give me clean, cool water often. Save me, by all means in your power, from that fatal disease — the glanders. I cannot tell you in words when I am sick, so watch me, that by signs you may know my condition. Giv^e me all possible shelter from the hot sun, and put a blanket on me, not when I am working, but when I am standing in the cold. Never put a frosty bit in my mouth; first warm it by holding it a moment in your hands. I try to carry you and }our burdens without a murmur, and wait patiently for you long hours of the day or night. Without the power to choose my shoes or path, I sometimes fall on the hard pavements which I have often prayed might not be of wood, but of such a nature as to give me a safe and sure footing. Remember that I must be ready at any moment to lose my life in your service. And finally, O MY MASTER, when my useful strength is gone, do not turn me out to starve or freeze, or sell me to some cruel owner, to be slowly tortured and starved to death; but do thou, my master, take my life in the kindest way, and your God will reward you here and hereafter. You will not consider me irreverent if I ask this in the name of Him who was born in a Stable. — Amen. 107 BULLETINS Copies of all Bulletins may be had on application NO. 1— WATERING AND BEDDING ISSIIEO IN 11)01) During the past five months an agent of this Association has \isited 157 stables, including almost all the large livery and hoarding stables in Boston and the neigh- boring cities and towns. One object of these inspections was to ascertain the prac- tice in regard to watering the horses during the night, after they have eaten their hay, and in regard to bedding them in the day time, as well as at night, especially on Sundays. The agent submits the follow- ing report: — THE WATERING OF HORSES AT NIGHT In most cases all the hay which horses in the city receive is fed to them at night. It is therefore especially important that they should be watered during the night. In an inspection of over 150 of the leading livery and boarding stables in Boston and the vicinity, particular attention was paid to this matter. All authorities agree, and experience teaches, that city horses should be watered between 8 P. M. (9 P. M. would be better) and midnight; but it was found that less than half of the stables visited give their horses water after 7 P. M. And yet more stablemen volunteered in- formation on this subject than upon any other matter considered in the five months during which the investigations were made. " A horse comes in hungry," was the usual way of putting it, " and he wants his sup- per so much that he will drink but little; and he ought not to drink deeply at that time, even if he wants to. Then he eats a quantity of dry, heating food. He shouldn't have water right after eating; but if he doesn't get a good drink two or three hours later, he will go through the 108 night thirsty, and the heating food will burn out his insides for the lack of the water that is needed to give the nourish- ment of the food a chance to do the good it ought to be doing." Moreover, a horse not watered at night is very apt to drink too much in the morning. This night-watering is not only common humanity in hot weather, but it is almost equally valuable in winter. For appetite comes with the bracing efifect of cold weather, and horses eat more than they do in summer. Consequently, if this extra food is to do its part in giving the horse power to resist the cold and the strain of winter work, water must be given at the time when it will do the most good, which is, in most cases, between 8 and 10 P. M., or even later. Nothing does so much toward giving back a return for the food given in the way of extra strength, working endurance and good condition. M The effect of this night-watering on the ^ blood and general circulation is far reach- ing. The thirst that follows the digestion of a meal is the call of nature for the water that is needed to help the good of the food to get into the flesh and blood of the ani- mal; and equally important is the part played by the water in sending the waste matter out of the body with the least pos- sible wear and tear on the organs that per- form this indispensable duty. A horse that remains thirsty all night cannot be ex- pected to last so long as one that is watered at the i)roper time.* *If anyone doiilns whether horses need watering at night, let him go into a stable, say at 9 P. M., turn loose the horses which have not been watered since they were fed, and observe how eagerly they will make for the watering-trough. — H. C. M. BEDDING AND REST There were twenty-five horses in a stable not far from Boston that was visited one Sunday morning. The horses were a fair, average lot of the kind used in delivery wagons and in general business. Most of them were in reasonably good working order, and the stable had the appearance of being well-kept. Of the twenty-five horses in the stable tw^enty-four were standing up, and just one was lying down. In twenty-four stalls there was no bedding; in one there was a good supply. One doesn't have to be a wizard to guess that the horse that was getting a needed rest was in the same stall with the bedding. All the other horses were being deprived of what might be the best part of their Sunday, namely, the op- portunity of taking their weight off legs and feet that usually have all, and more, than they can do to stand the strain of the week-day wear and tear. In another stable there is a horse that works in a single grocery wagon. He is between the shafts three days, but every fourth day remains in the stable. Each morning brings him exactly the same breakfast, and there is absolutely nothing in the care given that tells him whether he is to go out or stay in. But he knows how to keep his own calendar, and every fourth morning, just as soon as he has finished eating, he lies down in comfort on the plen- tiful supply of bedding which is kept under every horse in that stable at all times; and he frequently stays down the better part of the day. In still another stable there are pairs of horses that are used half a day and rested the other half. Encouraged by plenty of bedding, they have formed habits of resting their legs and feet at every possible oppor- tunity. There is an old saying that a good city horse could use up four sets of legs and feet. This means that a large part of his bodily strength and endurance is wasted because lameness and suffering wear out the unfortunate animal long before his time. " His shoulders is all gone savin' his legs," was the way one stableman described the condition of a horse who had worked his body muscles to pieces in trying to ease the strain on his battered legs and feet. As in the case of watering at night, the extra expense of giving a day-time bed to a horse is slight, compared with the great benefit gained from the rest and chance for repairs given the legs. The good that comes out of this is reflected in the condi- tion of the whole body; and all who own horses should see that this chance for needed rest is given their horses whenever they are in the stable. A horse will not lie down on stable planks unless worn and weary beyond the point where it is right to use any animal. GILBERT TOMPKINS, Agent. The Directors of this Association earn- estly submit the foregoing facts and obser- vations to owners of work-horses and to keepers of boarding and livery stables, partly as a matter of economy, but still more as a matter of humanity. Postscript. During the past winter four or five owners of work-horses, with large stables, have, at our suggestion, given their horses a good bed through the day on Sundays ; and in each case they report that the horses take advantagre of it, and are the better for it. 109 BULLETIN No. 4 VACATIONS FOR WORK-HORSES {Especially from the Economic Point of View) By GILBERT TOMPKINS and HENRY C. MERWIN Everyone will admit that to give a work-horse an annual vacation is an act of humanity, and, we believe, it can be shown that it is an act of economy also. Se\eral years ago one of the writers of this bulletin was asked the following question b>' the owner of an old horse, not a work- horse in this case, but a carriage horse- — " What shall I do with him? He is getting old and stiff and too slow to use. Shall I kill him, — or what?" The answer was: — " Try giving him a summer's rest, or per- haps even a vacation of six months. Take his shoes off, let him have plenty of grass or bran, and reduce his grain about one- half." Six months later the writer met the owner of this horse, who exclaimed: " I am much obliged to you for giving me a new horse!" Being asked what he meant, he replied that the vacation given to his old horse had so rejuvenated him that he was almost as good as ever, and was doing his work as a carriage horse with satis- faction to his owner and himself. Similar cases will be found stated in the appendix. Another experience was the following: A humane person bought an old cab horse in the city, — a very old horse, much over twenty. This horse was so stiff and re- duced in strength that it was with some difticulty that he was driven out to the country. Six months later he had lim- bered up completely, and was supple and active enough to run away with the faimer who had charge of him. There are thousands of work-horses hard at work in cities today who have begun to run down hill, and will be worthless or nearly so within a year or two; and yet if these horses could be given a rest and a chance to recuperate, they would in six months' time be worth almost as much as the price originally paid for them. Horses are scarce and high, with no prospect of lower prices or of a better supply, and if a profit is to be made from the use of them, the loss occasioned by wear and tear must be kept down. Any business that considers merely its annual income without regard to the depreciation account w^ill soon be in a bad state. It is well known that an average horse will last twice as long with one kind of a driver as he will with a worse kind, and with an annual vacation instead of constant, un- remitting labor, his health and usefulness will be correspondingly increased. Work and action must be followed by rest and relaxation. Even iron and steel have their limits, and machinery itself cannot be overtaxed without a loss of efficiency. Flesh and blood, mind and nerve, energy and courage, all these must depend on rest periods in which nature may bring them back to their normal strength. This is more widely recognized every year in its application to human beings, and it is time that those who own or use horses should realize that the same prin- ciple is equally applicable to horse-flesh. THE EFFECT OF CITY WORK ON HORSES Work-horses in the city, if worked too hard or too fast, or if not properly cared for, or if weakened by age, deteriorate in the following different ways: (1) They become thin. (2) Their feet become sore or diseased. (3) They become grain-burnt or other- wise weakened in digestion. (4j Their muscles become tired and strained. Let us take these up in their order. (1; The first symptom of age in a horse is apt to be a falling-off in flesh. 110 Others become thin from ha\ing a bad driver, or Irom being over-hurried in their work, or from poor feeding. A short rest will often do wonders for a horse in this condition. (2) The F'eet. — Unquestionably the best way to majce a horse's feet last in the city is to shoe him with rubber or leather pads and plenty of tar and oakum under- neath. This keeps the feet soft, and deadens the concussion. But, with the best of shoeing, horses' feet will give out on the pavements, and nothing will tend to preserve their feet more than an occa- sional let-up during which their shoes can be removed, their feet can get back to the ground, their heels can expand, and fever in the feet may be reduced by the moisture of dew and wet grass, swampy land, etc. (3) The Grain-Burnt Horse. — It must be remembered that a horse at work in the city is not in a normal condition. The constant feeding on dry food, and es- pecially on such stimulating food as oats and corn, produces an unnatural condi- tion of the blood. All city horse-owners know and dread the disease of the kidneys called " black-water." This is especially a Monday morning disease, and when a Sunday and a holiday come together, so that the work-horse has two days of con- tinuous rest, many cases of black-water always occur. One year in Chicago there were 150 deaths from this disease in one day. Even if a horse does not suffer from acute disease of this kind, his w^hole system becomes feverish and abnormal from years of high graining without any chance to get back to nature, such as a horse gets by being turned out to grass. Everybody who has seen a horse turned loose in a lot after being confined in a stable must have observed how he first paws up a little turf with his forefoot, and thus gets at the earth underneath. He is more anxious to eat this earth than to eat the grass, and it is certain that the earth is wholesome for the horse. It has a cleansing effect and is a cure for worms. Nothing, in short, is so good for the digestion of a horse, especially after long >ears of confinement in a stable and high feeding, than an opportunity to eat grass and earth. (4) Tired Muscles. — Not everybody realizes that a horse, to the eye, may be in perfect condition, and yet his muscles may be so tired and strained that move- ment is positixely painful to him, and any movement l)ut a slow one almost impos- sible. Work-horses and hack-horses in this condition are often seen in the street, especially when they begin to grow old. These horses look fairly fat and sleek, but they are tired, their heads droop, they have no life and they lack energy and quickness of movement. Nothing but a rest will restore these horses; but a rest of a few months will do it, and it will increase their value at least one-half. The writer of this Bulletin remembers seeing a horse used by a rural free delivery mail-carrier that, being naturally a good feeder, and having all the grain that he would eat, was in fine bodily condition; but he did double the work of an ordinary horse, that is, he travelled twenty-three miles a day for six days in the w^eek, and he was so tired and stifif that it was difficult to urge him from a walk into a trot. It is from this stifTen- ing of the muscles that a horse really grows old, and if the muscles are restored by an annual vacation the useful life of the horse will be extended to an astonishing degree. A VACATION AT HOME Many stables, especially truck-horse stables, are so situated that a horse can be given a very good vacation without send- ing him away. That is, there is a yard connected with the stable where the horse can be turned loose in fine weather, with his shoes off. His feed should, of course, be changed to meet the changed condition of his life. His oats should be reduced at least one-half, but always according to the age of the horse, and plenty of bran should be given to him, with carrots, turnips and other vegetables, and, if possible, some grass, now and then, sent in from neigh- boring farms. In this way the horse can derive pretty nearly all the benefits of a vacation in the country without the ex- pense of sending him away, and without separating him from his well-known and beloved companions. A VACATION IN THE COUNTRY It is hardly necessary to say that the greatest care should be taken in selecting the farm where the horse is to be turned 111 out for a rest. Few farmers know how to care for a horse, or will take any trouble to make him comfortable. It must be remembered, of course, that the city horse, being used to high feed, cannot have all his grain taken away from him, especially if he be an old horse, without falling into a worse condition than his former one. I ' nless he is a young horse in rich pasturage, he must receive some grain every day, and the old horse will need a good deal, per- haps one-half of his usual ration. Another thing to be looked out for is the annoyance from flies and mosquitoes. This is so great, except in farms situated on high groimd, that a horse, especially a city horse, cannot be turned out all day or even all night in a pasture or field without losing more than he would gain. In pastures of northern New England, where the land is at a comparatively high altitude and the nights are cool, horses can be turned out day and night; but within thirty or fifty miles of Boston, in midsummer, there is hardly more than an hour or so, in the whole twenty-four hours, when a horse can be turned out without being driven almost crazy by flies in the daytime, and mosquitoes at night. RECONSTRUCTED HORSES At the annual Boston Work-Horse Parade in 1910 a new class was estab- lished,— a class not only new in the parade, but ncAcr before gi\'en at any work-horse I)arade or horse-shcnv. This was a class for reconstructed horses, that is, horses run down by neglect or abuse in the hands ol one owner, and restored to health and strength by rest and good treatment in the hands of another. This class furnished some striking examples of wiiat can be done by giving a horse a chance to recuper- ate. One of the horses exhibited w^as a sound animal, but he had been worked hard for eight years, was completely worked out, and was supposed to be worthless. He was bought for a song and restored by three months' rest. Another horse, bought two years before in a positively emaciated condition, was entirely made over by a vacation spent chiefly in a box stall, with plenty of mashes, etc., and within a year was sold for $245. Another, bought for .S75, in the Fall, Irom a pro\'ision dealer whose horses are knocked about by boy drivers, was restored to health by a rest, and sold for $300 in the spring. Another horse, only eight years old, sound except for blindness, was bought in the Fall for $15, as he lay in the gutter too weak to get up. He then weighed 1040 pounds; four months afterward he was a strong, powerful animal weighing 1360 pounds. In the appendix will be found se\'eral letters which give some striking illustra- tions of the value of a vacation for work- horses. VACATION BY PIECE-MEAL One way of giving a horse a vacation is to increase the number of horses at work for any firm or concern, so as to permit each horse to lay off one day out of the six working days, or to work half a day only for one or more working days in the week. For example, suppose a given concern has work enough to keep four three-hundred-dollar horses busy. Let them add one horse to the equipment, so that there will be five horses for the work. This would relieve toil-worn legs and feet and over-strained bodies and digestion, would lessen somewhat the amount of grain required for each horse, and would greatly reduce the annual depreciation in the value of each horse. In this way, it is speaking within bounds to say, that the working life of all the horses would be prolonged from an average of six years to an average of ten years. It should be remembered also that a horse in good condition and spirits is far more efficient, and will get over far more ground in a day, than one that is jaded or stiff from overwork; and besides, the good, active horse tends to make the driver a better and more efficient employee. Another consideration is the advertising v^ilue of a good horse in good condition and spirits. This increases every year, and in cities where work-horse parades are held it increases very fast. Customers look more and more at the horse used, directly or indirectly, in supplying their wants, and a fine horse gives an appearance of success and up-to-dateness that is worth much more liian it costs. 112 APPENDIX TESTIMONY AS TO VACATIONS FOR WORK-HORSES A large bakery concern in Boston, the George G. Fox Co. says: — " Our system is to give eacii of our horses two weeks at pasture every year, sending them four at a time while the season lasts. We are well pleased with the results." EXPERIENCE OF A LEADING TRUCKMAN (Letter to the President of the Boston Work- Horse Parade Association.) Boston, May 15, 191L Dear Sir: — I write this letter to call your attention to a gray mare, stone blind, which we worked in our business for fourteen years. When she had been worked for about twelve years, she seemed to have a general breakdown, and about that time you and I had a conversation in regard to " reconstructed horses," and you advised me to give this mare two months la^'-off and see what effect it would have. I followed your instructions — we have a large yard — and this mare was turned out every day, and most of the time we hired a boy to take her out and give her some grass. In two months' time she came back perfectly well and seemingly as good as ever. We worked her for about two years from that time, and then wc pensioned her and sent her to a farm. We have done the same thing with three others, and one of these was run down so badly that our veterinary surgetJfi" advised me to have him killed. He declared that one of thjs horse's lungs was nearly gone, and thought he was not worth one dollar. We had used this horse for about eight years, and concluded that we would try giving him a rest. After three months' rest he was one of the hand- somest horses in Boston, and he remained so for about two years, and last year was shown with the " reconstructed horses " in the Work-Horse Parade. This year he died of blackwater on account of his being so fleshy. Our experience simply shows that your idea of a vacation for horses that are run down is correct, and I hope that many other horse owners will make the same experiment. The results I have no cjuestion in regard to. Very truly yours, WM. D. QUL\IB^■. THE EXPERIENCE OF AN EXPRESSMAN " This horse went to pieces after eight years of city delivery work, and wasn't worth anything. When he came to us, his legs were swollen, kidneys weak, one lung going and the other almost gone. He couldn't even go down an easy incline with(nit stopping and struggling for breath. He was given some physic, and then laid off for the summer. Wc hired boys to lead him (and other horses) in the grass of some open lots while the dew was on it, and let them graze afternoons. We gave this horse the freedom of the barn and the yard, and after a while he began stealing the other horses' feed on his own account. He finally filled out and improved so much that I took him for my own use. Now he feels so well that he won't even walk up hill. He's also a little on the alarm-clock pattern; when he stands in front of the offics evenings, you have to tie him a little before six o'clock, or he will go home to supper and the stable of his own notion." Other horses that have been re-built by this same owner have been sold well, are in satisfactory condition and are doing good work. His example is well worth following. VACATION BY CHANGE OF WORK " W'e keep two horses for this business; and while one of them works in the city, the other pulls a light buckboard about our dairy farm and comes in for plenty of green feed. They exchange jobs and rations from time to time, with good results." Many users of city horses could make a good profit on a properly organized farm, keeping part of the horses there at a time until the whole band had been rested and freshened up by vacation and change of work. The average endurance of city life by the horses would be lengthened, and one and all would accomplish far more work with infinitely less suffering. There would be a home market in the city stables for all surplus feed; and if the distance were not too great, the out-going teams could haul manure, while the horses coming to town could bring in green food and other supplies in season. The right kind of a timber lot would furnish quan- tities of leaves which make good bedding and excellent fertilizing material. By this system the cost of the horse-suppl\- could be lowered greatly. A HORSE-BOARDING FARM Situated twenty miles from Boston: " We raise hay and carrots; also corn, which we feed green and on the cob. During the hot months the horses are turned out at night, and brought in and fed in the daytime. Mean horses are always kept away from the others; and we have an ex- ercise rink for use in l^ad weather. 11:3 " Notic-c of the taking away of a horse is very important, in order that plenty of exercise may be given before real work begins. We send for and deliver all horses that romc to us." Many suburban farms arc naturally well-adapted to the care of horses that are on vacation, and great soil-gain must come from feeding the farm products on the farm itself. It is an every-day prac- tice in the Middle West to purchase and feed stock for the sake of the by-product thereby realized in fertilizing material. The change that comes over properly pastured fields is easily seen. Soil that has become barren through over-cropping, or that is drunk with the unnatural stim- ulus of artificial fertilizing soon shows a great improvement. THE OHIO PLAN Ohio's output of good things is not con- fined to presidents and generals. The first organized campaign for promoting vacations for horses was started by the Ohio Humane Society in Cincinnati in June, 1908. Letters explaining the sub- ject were sent at that time to many business men and merchants of the city, who re- sponded promptly. Similar letters were sent out in 1909 and 1910; and the Society reports that the horse-vacation habit is well established in Cincinnati. Requests were also made for the placing of special appeals for the benefit ot horses on the various letter-heads and circulars issued by dilTerent firms and corpora- tions. Here is a sample, which appeared on many thousand copies of circulars, etc.: A SQUARE DEAL FOR THE HORSE We believe every horse de- serves three ample meals daily ; water frequently; proper shoes; a blanket in cold weather; two weeks' vacation annually. THROW AWAY THE WHIP VACATIONS FOR POOR MEN'S HORSES A PROBLEM (Extract from a letter from the Ohio Humane Society.) " A difficult problem in this vacation work is that of the poor owner of a horse who earns a living for a family by running an express wagon or peddling. As a rule, he is too poor to grant the horse a vaca- tion; but we hope to provide for him later." The same problem confronts everyone who tries to help in this direction. The only way to meet the situation seems to be to provide some good "second-hand" horses that may be lent — under reasonable and proper restrictions — as substitutes for the horses that need rest. Red Acre Farm, the Home for Horses, at Stow, twenty-five miles from Boston, has numerous reconstructed horses that it lends to people in that neighborhood, w^here they can frequently be inspected by the agents of the Farm. The Farm has no horses for lending to city owners; but it is always ready to give free rest and treatment to the horses of poor men. A horse may be sent by anybody at any time to Red Acre Farm, with or without notice, and he will be cared for. This Association acts as the Boston Agent of the Farm. Pine Ridge, at Dedham, the annex of the Animal Rescue League (51 Carver Street, Boston), will also take poor men's horses, free of charge, for a vacation and for treatment. Pine Ridge is only ten miles from the city, and is therefore con- veniently situated for this purpose. Copies of all Bulletins issued by this Association may be had free on application.

OFFICE (OPEN THROUGHOUT THE YEAR EXCEPT IN AUGUST) 15 BEACON STREET, ROOM 27 TELEPHONE, HAYMARKET 228 WORK-HORSE PARADES HE Work-Horse Parade originated in England, and for many years it has been an annual event in London and Liverpool. The first Parade of the kind on this continent was held in Boston on Memorial Day, May 30, 1903, by ten or twelve men who had previously been unacquainted with one another, but who were drawn together by their interest in horses, — especially in the ill-treated horse. Soon afterward they were incorpo- rated under the name of the " Boston Work-Horse Parade Association;" and we beg that all humane persons who have property to dispose of will bear this title in mind. The Association has no endowment whatever, and the difficulty in raising the money necessary to carry out the Parade is very great. Several of the Directors devote to it far more time and energy than they can afford to expend, outside of their regular occupation; and the want of funds is a continual source of anxiety. Every year the Parade increases in size and consequently in expense, and the very success of the Association seems likely to prove its ruin. It is only through the great generosity of a few men and w^omen, among w^hom are the wddow and relatives of the late R. A. Lawrence, the founder and first President of the Association, that the Parade has been maintained for the past few years. The Parade-idea is gradually extending over the continent, and, in every case, so far as we know, the Boston Parade has served as a model. This is true of New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Chicago, Buffalo, Bur- lington (Iowa), New Orleans, Minneapolis, Seattle, Tacoma, San Francisco and Oakland, Muskegon (Mich.), Hanover (N. H.), Nashua (N. H.), Waltham (Mass.), Toronto and Halifax. It gives us the greatest pleasure to send copies of our circulars, cata- logues, instructions to judges, and other documents to any society or person who contemplates the holding of a Parade; and all persons are at liberty to reprint and publish the circulars and Bulletins issued by this Association. In particular cases, we shall be glad to furnish information and advice by personal letters or interviews. We have a collection of slides for a stere- opticon display of pictures of work-horses and other horses, and we are happy to lend these to any association or person desiring to use them. THE PARADE NOT A RICH MAN'S SHOW In our Parade every effort is made to reach and benefit the poor man and the poor man's horse. In all classes, except the championship classes, age counts in favor of the horse. The older the horse the higher he is graded, provided that his condition is good; and neither l)lindness nor blemishes disqualif\- him. The most interesting part of the Parade is the Old Horse Class, and that is distinctly the poor man's opportunity. The highest honors in our Parade are the two gold medals, — the Lawrence medal for four-horse teams, cared for by the driver, and the gold medal for the best old horse. This last prize has been offered eight times; five times it was taken by a man who owned only the single horse which he exhibited ; and once it was taken by a man who owned only two horses. Moreover, in the classes where horses are most apt to be owned by poor men we offer many special prizes of money and street l)lankets. These are the huckster, barrel-rack and local express classes. The Old Horse Class was originated by this Association, and it has been a success wherever tried, — not only in Work-Horse Parades, but at Cattle Shows and County Fairs. We earnestly recommend this class to the managers of Horse Shows and Fairs throughout the country. Another novelty, tried with great success last year, is the class for Reconstructed Horses, that is, horses that were run down by neglect or ill-usage and have been restored to health and strength by a new owner. OUR AGENTS Whenever our funds are sufficient, we employ an agent to go about among the poorer classes of stables, especially on Sundays, when the horses are all in the stable. In this way we assist the owners with advice, medicine and other means. Much good is accomplished in this manner. Men who treat their horses with cruelty are warned, and in extreme cases suitable action is taken. We earnestly ask for contributions in order that we may carry on this work during the coming summer. THE EQUINE SHOWER BATH Last year during the excessively hot weather this Association main- tained eight showering stations where horses were showered with water from hose attached to a hydrant or were sponged off by means of water pails and sponges. These stations were at Upham's Corner, Copley Square, Park Square, Charles St., Cambridge St., Minot St., Scollay Square, and Dock Square. We are indebted to the following persons and corporations 4 for the free use of their water and hose, and, in behalf of the horses, we most earnestly thank them: — the Pilgrim Congregational Church; the Franklin Savings Bank, M. F. Hanson, the Boston Wine and Spirit Com- pany, the Oriental Tea Company. Thousands of animals were refreshed in this manner, and often a long line of panting horses, exhausted by the heat, were waiting their turn. This showering service will be continued in the current year on any days when the thermometer is 85° or over, provided that we have money enough on hand for the purpose. MEETINGS FOR DRIVERS Two "Smoke Talks" for drivers, stablemen and all other persons interested in horses were held in Kingsley Hall in February, 1912, at which addresses were made by Dr. Rowley and Mr. W. D. Quimby, and stere- opticon pictures of horses were shown and explained by the President of the Association. These meetings had large and enthusiastic audiences. The same entertainment was given at Waltham in May of this year, under the auspices of the Animal Aid Society. We assisted the same society in holding a very successful Work-Horse Parade in Waltham on April 19, 1912. RED ACRE FARM AND PINE RIDGE We act as agents for Red Acre Farm, the Home for Horses at Stow, and inquiries about the Farm, and how horses can be sent there, will be answered at any time by letter or telephone. Any horse which is a subject for charity may be sent to the Farm by anybody, at any time, without notice; and the animal will be cared for. The post-office address of the Farm is South Acton, Mass. The railroad station is South Acton. The telephone is West Acton 8. Under the laws of Massachusetts (Chap. 133 of the Acts of the year 1908) cities and towns may turn over their old or disabled horses to Red Acre Farm, or to any other incorporated societ}' for the relief of dumb animals. Boston, Somerville, Brookline, Waltham and other municipalities have availed themselves of this law, instead of selling the animals at auction. Pine Ridge, the annex at Dedham of the Animal Rescue League, is ready at any time to receive horses that need rest or treatment. Appli- cation should be made to the League at 51 Carver Street, Boston. Pine Ridge is onh- 10 miles out, and is thus a convenient place in which to give horses a vacation. There is a growing feeling in the community that old and worn-out 5 or painfully lame horses ought not to be sold, but should be killed or other- wise disposed of in a humane manner. To sell a worn-out horse, and thus eonsign him to a slow and ])ainful death, will be looked upon years hence as an almost incredible cruelt\'. BULLETINS The Association issued in 1910 a Bulletin on Watering and Bedding, by Gilbert Tompkins. This Bulletin has been widely read and highly commended. A revised edition was published last August, and it is now reprinted, with some additions, at the end of this catalogue, where will be found also a Bulletin on X'acations for Work-Horses. We believe it to be a fact that an annual vacation for the work-horse, and especially for the old work-horse, is a matter not only of humanity, but of economy. Since September, 1911, we have printed and distributed over 6,000 Bulletins. Copies of all Bulletins issued by this Association may be had free on application. The Bulletins thus far issued are: — No. 1. Watering and Bedding, by Gilbert Tompkins. No. 2. The Disposal of Old Horses, by Henry C. Merwin. No. 3. The Motor- Wagon and the Work-Horse, by Gilbert Tomj^kins. No. 4. Vacations for Work-Horses, by Gilbert Tompkins and Henry C. Merwin. No. 5. A Bulletin on the Feeding of Work-Horses, by Gilbert Tompkins, will be published about the first of July. THE STABLE INSPECTION The most important activity of this Association, next to the Parade, and perhaps not second to that, is the system of Stable Inspection. Entries for this may be made at any time, and by stables of all kinds, including livery, hack, and boarding stables. There is no entry fee. The stables are judged, not in competition with one another, but accordingly as they satisfy the standard fixed by the Association. The prizes are un- limited in number, and consist mainly of silver medals, awarded to the proprietors and to foremen and nightmen. The stables and the foremen are not always graded alike. Sometimes a foreman makes poor use ot the facilities at his command, and, more often, a good foreman has to struggle against poor facilities and bad drivers. The Inspectors are the most expert and impartial men that we can find in Boston or elsewhere. Their reports are confidential, and are conmiunicated onh' to the pr()j)rietor ot the stable. 6 Among the points considered by the InsjDectors are quaHty and quantity of hay and grain, watering, bedding, blanketing, grooming, ventilation, stalls, sanitary condition of stable, and the handling of the horses by grooms and drivers. The stable inspection is availed of more and more every year, espe- cially by large concerns. The total number of horses in the stables in- spected during the past two years is five thousand, four hundred and forty. Many large concerns, especially corporations, leave their stable man- agement wholly to subordinates, and often do not know whether it is good or bad, or how it could be improved. There are men working alone at night in large stables, old employees in many cases, as to whom the question is never asked whether they do their work well or ill. Most of these men are faithful. A few of them have been unearthed by our Stable Inspectors, and it is pathetic to see how pleased and surprised they are to find that any human being takes an interest in them or in their work. No amount of system can compensate for the want of this personal interest in the horses and in the men who take care of them. It should be the business of some person in authority in every concern to know how^ the horses look and feel, whether the men in charge are faithful or not, how' long they have been in the service, what sugges- tions they have to make, and so forth. It seems to be the policy of many large corporations and firms to treat men and horses alike as if they were machines. This is not good " business," to say nothing of humanity. FAULTS IN STABLES Our Inspectors have found the most common faults in Work-Horse stables to be as follows: — (1) Scanty bedding. (2) Failure to bed the horses on Sundays and holidays in the daytime. (3) Failure to water the horses at night after they have eaten their hay. (4) Failure to keep the horses' feet soft. (5) Poor grooming. STABLE INSPECTION REPORT The following is a copy of the ]jrinted form for the Inspector's report: — The Inspectors are requested to re]3ort on the following matters and any others that ma\- occur to them:^ — 1. How the horses are brought to the stable by the drivers, whether in a heated condition or nor. 7 2. Manners and appearance of the horses, as showing whether they have been handled kindly or roughly. 3. Bodily condition of horses. 4. Condition of horses' feet. 5. Are the horses well groomed ? 6. Examine the horses for galls or other sores, and state how many, if any, are galled. 7. Is the harness clean and well oiled ; and especially are the insides of the collars clean ? 8. Ventilation of stable and hay loft. 9. Cleanliness of stable, hay loft and watering troughs. 10. Drainage, and disposal of manure. 11. Temperature of stable, and whether the horses are subjected to draughts or not. 12. Size and character of stalls — width and length. 13. Amount of bedding ; and are the horses bedded during the day on Sun- days, and when they stand in the stable on other days? 14. Hours of feeding and watering; and especially are the horses watered after eating their hay at night ? 15. Quality and amount of hay and grain fed. 16. Bran mash, — when given. 17. Salt, when and how given. 18. Blanketing of horses in stable. 19. (In large stables) is there a drying room for blankets ? 20. Are there rain-covers for the horses, or two sets of blankets — one for wet weather? larks :' ' Signature of Inspector. Date For the prizes awarded this year to stables and stablemen see the pages at the end of the entry list. The Association is indebted to the following Stable Inspectors for their very careful and conscientious work: — E. F. COLDWELL ROBERT MASON J. B. MATTHEWS J. W. Whitney TENTH ANNUAL PARADE, 1912 'NY horse that is dock-tailed, sick, lame, thin, galled, or out of condition will be disqualified. Every entry not disqualified will receive a^ribbon, either first (blue), second (red), or third (yellow). In the Old Horse Class highly commended ribbons are awarded, which are equivalent to third prizes in other classes. Each blue ribbon winner wall receive a brass medal to be worn as a permanent ornament on the harness. There is no restriction upon the number or grade of ribbons to be aAvarded. The Judges may aw^ard such ribbons as they deem to be de- served, subject to the following rules: (1) Age counts in favor of a horse, (2) Blue ribbons or first prizes are not to be awarded to green horses, and, if possible, not to horses who have worked less than one year. (3) Blue ribbons or first prizes are not to be awarded to any horse, unless, allowing for the imperfections of age, he is a horse of good type and good quality.* MANNERS Manners should be considered, as showing whether or not the horse has been treated kindly, COLOR The color of a horse does not count, even in respect to matched pairs. BLINDNESS A blind horse is not disqualified. THE VEHICLE The vehicle does not count, except that a vehicle too heavy for the horse or horses drawing it should either disqualify the entry or reduce the grade of ribbon which it is to receive. For what is meant by quality, see the pages at the end of the catalogue. 9 THE HARNESS The value or beauty of the harness does not count ; but a harness that is dirty, too heavy, especially in the bridle, or ill-fitting, especially in the collar, counts against the entry. Many a good horse has failed to receive a prize in former years by reason of his collar being too small or too large, or for some other defect in the harness. Throat-latches too tight, and inside reins too long, in the case of pairs, are also common defects. Harness that is light, but strong enough to do the work required of it, is preferred to heavier harness. This rule will be observed especially in respect to bridles and other parts in which great strength is not required. Brass frontlets, unnecessary rings, tassels, plumes and other ornaments should not be used. Housings for collars, except for use in rain-storms, are strongly disapproved by the Association as being unnecessary, expensive and adding to the weight of the harness. The single harness approved by the Association, and shown in a photo- graph printed in this catalogue, weighs only 53 pounds, collar and all, and it is big enough for any 1350-pound horse. Horses of that weight frequently carry a harness weighing 70 or 80 pounds. The bridle shown in the photograph weighs less than two pounds — about half liit usual weight. DRIVERS' BADGES A medal or badge, to be worn on the person, will be given to every driver who shows in the Parade, in good condition and serviceably sound, the same horse or horses shown by him in the Parade of the year before. (In case of four-horse teams, it will be sufficient if three of the horses were shown by him the previous year.) A gold badge will be given to the most meritorious driver, all things con- sidered ; and silver badges will be given to the twenty who rank next.* It is believed that every good driver in Boston will be ambitious to obtain one of these badges, and that possession of the badge will be the best recom- mendation that a driver could have. SPECIAL PRIZES In memory of R. A. Lawrence, its first President, the Association offers a gold medal to the owner and a silver medal to the driver, for the *The following gold and silver badges were awarded in 1912: Gold badges: I'hilip 11.

W eir. 10 1 best four-horse team in the Parade, provided also that the driver takes care of his horses. There are second and third prizes in this Class. Other special prizes, consisting of gold and silver medals and sums of money, are offered in the \eteran Driver, Old Horse and other classes by the following: Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, American Humane Education Society, Animal Rescue League, Red Acre Farm, Mrs. A. E. Dwight, Mrs. A. G. Merwin, Mrs. Jacob Hittinger, John W. Whitney, W. D. Quimby, George W. Harrington, Dr. P. J. Cronon, Dr. D. P. Keogh, James Forgie's Sons. These will be found specified in the Entry List below. DRIVING COMPETITION A Driving Competition for four-horse teams will be held in or near Commonwealth Avenue, while the judging is taking place. Entries for this competition need not be made beforehand. The first prize will be a silver medal, to go to the driver. U. S. LETTER CARRIERS There is a class for the Letter Carriers in the Boston District w^ho have horses; of these there are about thirty-five. Their yearly allowance for providing and maintaining a horse and wagon is only $350. This sum is very inadequate. The men do their best, but their horses and wagons make a poor showing. Only one has made an entry in the Parade of 1912. NOTICE TO SPECTATORS In many cases imperfections, not always visible to spectators at the reviewing-stand, very properly prohibit the giving of a prize or a ribbon of high grade to a particular horse. The horses pass the reviewing-stand at a walk, and at that gait a slight lameness would not be disclosed, whereas the Judges would have detected it when the horses were shown to them at a trot. Moreover, defects in harnessing, sores or galls under the harness, and other imperfections, not alwa>s a])parenl, treciuently exclude a fine horse, or team of horses, from high honors. It should be remembered, too, that in this Exhibition age counts in favor of a horse, rnd that green horses are disc-riminated against. 11 SYSTEM OF JUDGING Those classes in which special prizes are awarded, namely, Fire De- partments, Old Horses, Reconstructed Horses, Four-Horse Teams, Owners and Foremen's Runabout Horses, Barrel-Racks, Hucksters, Local Expresses, and the five Championship classes, will be judged as formerly, that is, by two Judges for each class, w^ho will inspect the horses, and see them move. The other classes, comprising about four-fifths of the Parade, w^ill be judged by one set of Judges in the following manner: — As soon as the classes are in order, they w^ill start toward the reviewing- stand, w^ith a distance of twenty feet between each entry. Two veterinarians will be stationed about fifty yards down the line, and the horses will approach them at a slow trot. The veterinarians will inspect the horses as they approach, will halt them if necessary, and will shunt off from the line any that are lame. If the owner or driver thinks that a mistake has been made, he may ask the veterinarians to test his horse again, and in that case the veterin- arians will give the horse another trial later. Those not excluded for lameness will proceed at a walk, and will be judged by two experts stationed fifty yards further toward the reviewing- stand. They will " size up " the horses as they approach, will halt them for a moment, if necessary, and look them over, and w^ill then decide on the grade of ribbon which the entry is to receive, — or w^ill decide that the entry is to receive nothing; and their decision, without announcing it to the driver, will be telephoned by an assistant to the reviewing-stand. Each entry carries a number corresponding with the number in the catalogue, so that this can easily be done. This plan was tried last year and worked so successfully that it will be adopted again this year. NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC Is it not possible, we are often asked, for a man to have a few good- looking horses in the Parade, while at home he has five or ten times as many in poor condition? We answer, No. We reserve the right to inspect all the horses in the stable of an applicant for a place in the Parade; and every year we exclude many entries on the ground that the owner's treat- ment of his horses in general is not humane. In other cases, when the treat- ment of the owner's horses is good in most respects, but not up to the standard in others, we request the owner to make such reforms as are needed; and it is very seldom that he refuses. 12 The advertising value of a place in the Parade is now very great, and we intend that no inhumane owner of a horse shall have the benefit of it. The Public may take the presence of a horse in this Parade as an assurance that the owner is a humane man in his treatment of horses generally. Our Judges are selected upon the same principle.

Men bring the horses in at noon, and at night, cool and breathing easily. Legs well rubbed if wet or muddy, or if the horses are tired. Head, ears and neck well rubbed, if wet from rain or sweat. Horses sponged under collar, saddle and crupper. Horses well brushed if dry. Feet washed and examined for nails. Eyes, nose and dock sponged in summer. In very hot weather, and then only, horses wiped all over with a wet sponge on coming in. (This does not mean washing the horse, much less turning the hose on him.) Horses given a little water, but not much, on coming in warm. No grain fed for at least an hour. Horses watered when cool, then hayed, watered again, and grained. (In any case, watered at night, after eating their hay. This is especially necessary in summer.) Plenty of bedding, and horses bedded down all day Sunday. Hay and grain of the best quality. A bran mash Saturday night or Sun- day noon ; cool in summer, hot in winter. A mash twice a week if work is light. Horses salted in the bran mash, or other- wise, with regularity. Hayloft kept clean. Harness, especially gollars, kept clean. Wide stalls. Easy runway. Horses tied long, so that they can lie with heads on the floor. Plenty of fresh air, but no draughts. No fumes from manure pit. Stalls not boarded up, but open or grated in the upper part. Drying-room for wet blankets. Stable quiet at night and on Sundays. Horses cleaned Sunday morning. Slatted outside doors for hot weather. Stable foreman good tempered, not a drinking man, and able to keep the drivers up to the mark. Comfortable room, with a bathtub, for the man in charge. Most important of all — Horses handled gently, neither struck, nor yelled at, nor sworn at. Owner drops in often. Horses hurried on starting in the morn- ing, and after the noon feed. Horses brought in hot and breathing hard. Harness stripped ofif roughly, and horses rushed into stalls without rubbing, clean- ing or sponging. Horses' legs washed. Horses allowed to drink their fill, no matter how hot ; or not watered at all. Grain fed before the horses are rested. Feet not washed or examined until the horse goes lame. Horses receive no water after eating their hay, until next morning. Scanty bedding. No bedding on Sundays until night, and horses watered only twice. Hay and grain of poor quality. Bran mash not given — too much trouble. Horses salted only when somebody hap- pens to think of it. Hayloft dusty and dirty. Harness unclean ; sweat allowed to ac- cumulate on inside of collars. Narrow stalls. Steep runway, with narrow turns. Horses tied short for fear of their being cast, as is likely when they are put up dirty. Stable close — no ventilating shaft. Windows dirty. Manure pit ventilates into stable. Stalls boarded up high, where the horses' heads are. Men loafing in the stable in the even- ing and on Sunday. Horses not cleaned on Sunday. Windows broken ; doors left open ; cold draughts in winter. No slatted outside doors for hot nights. No place for drying wet blankets. Uncomfortable room for man in charge; no bathtub. Stable foreman addicted to drink. Drivers imitate the foreman. Worst of all — Horses handled roughly, knocked about ; general atmosphere of noise and profanity. Owner never sees the horses taken out or put up, nor on Sundaj'S. 14 HOT-WEATHER RULES 1. I>oad lightly, and drive slowly. 2. Water your horse as often as possible, but let him drink only a few swallows if he is going to stand still. 3. So long as a horse is working, water in moderate quantities will not hurt him. If watered often, he will not drink too much at a time. 4. When he comes in after work, sponge off the harness marks, his eyes, his nose and mouth, and the dock. Wash his feet but not his legs. 5. If the thermometer is 75 degrees or higher, wipe him all over with a wet sponge. Use vinegar water if possible. Never turn the hose on his back or loins. 6. Saturday night, give a bran mash, cold ; and in very hot weather add a tablespoon- ful of saltpetre. 7. Do not use a horse-hat, unless it is a canopy-top hat. The ordinary bell-shaped hat does more harm than good. 8. A sponge on top of the head, or even a cloth, is good if kept wet. If dry it is worse than nothing. 9. If the horse is overcome by heat, remove harness and bridle, wash out his mouth, sponge him all over, shower his legs and give him four ounces of aromatic spirits of ammonia, or two ounces of sweet spirits of nitre, in a pint of water, or give him a pint of coi^ce warm. Cool his head at once, using cold water, or, if necessary, chopped ice, wrapped in a cloth. 10. If the horse is ofi his feed, try him with two quarts of oats mixed with bran, and a little water; and add a little salt or sugar. Or give him oatmeal gruel or barley water to drink. 11. Watch your horse. If he stops sweating suddenly, or if he breathes short and quick, or if his ears droop, or if he stands with his legs braced sideways, he is in danger of a heat or sun stroke and needs attention at once. 15 WILLIAM D.

These figures indicate the terrible loss sustained by owners of work-horses in the large cities of the United States. A good percentage of this loss would have been saved if Dr. Daniels' Handy Home Treatment Remedies had been used at the proper time. Daniels' Horse Colic Cure is warranted to cure or money refunded. Costs $1.00 — enough for 4 to 8 cases of horse colic. Daniels' Distemper, Coughs, of great value in heaves ; 50 cents. Daniels' Horse Renovator Powders. Any owner who will feed his horse one package of these Powders and is not delighted with results gets his money back for the asking — 50 cents. At Jaynes' and other good Druggists.

These conditions consist of treatment of milk at a temperature of 145 degrees for twenty minutes fol- lowed by thorough cooling — a method that has been practised by us for the last few years. We are now able to offer milk Pasteurized by a method even in advance of that above described, consisting of treatment after the milk is placed in the bottle. It can be seen that Pasteurization in the final package instead of in bulk secures to the consumer an uncontaminated and absolutely safe product.

Simon 117 QUALITY IN WORK -HORSES Our judges are instructed not to award blue ribbons or first prizes to any horse, no matter how good his condition, unless he is a horse of good type and f]uality. Quality, it need not be said, is just as important in a work-horse as in a race-horse. Quality might perhaps be described as that fineness of texture which good breeding produces. The bone in a well-bred horse is more dense and less brittle than the bone of a coarse-bred animal. It is true, of course, that well-bred horses are sometimes defi- cient in (luality, but no horse has quality unless he is well-bred. The horse with (juality has more endurance, and he is less subject to disease and to unsoundness of feet and legs than is the low-bred horse. Consequently it is more humane to use liorses with quality than those without ([uality. Quality and beauty are usually found together, and yet, as all horsemen know, one may exist without the other. A horse may have quality without being in the least beautiful. For example, he may have a ewe neck, a large head, long ears, a Roman nose, a sway back, flat sides, slack loins, calf-knees, cow hocks and a rat tail ; and yet if his coat is short and silky, if his head though large is bony and well-cut, if his ears though long are well-shaped, if his legs are flat and clean, and if his hoofs are of fine, close texture, then the horse has quality. Horses of the Shire and Clyde breeds often look coarse at first sight on account of their Roman noses and hairy legs, but in the best specimens of these breeds, the long hair about the fetlock is fine and silky, and their heads, though not handsome, are clean-cut. Quality is thus described l)y Prf)fess()r Rufus C, Obrecht of the University of Illinois: " Quality in a horse is of prime importance. This term when applied to horses has reference to their bones, skin, hair and muscles. Its presence is shown by clean-cut features of the head; firm, clean bone; tendons well defined; close fit- ting, glove-like skin; hair fine and silk>-, an abundance of finish and absence of coarseness, but not necessarily small bone. When slightly exerted the skin will show- clearly an intricate network of veins. Coarse hair is usually associated with a coarse skin and a soft, spongy bone which is weak and subject to disease. With qual- ity the muscles stand out prominently and are clearly defined, which aids in giving a horse finish. Quality is a strong indica- tion of the extent of a horse's endurance. These two characteristics are closely asso- ciated, and a horse lacking in quality is comparatively a cheap animal." This Association has always maintained that it is highly important, from the humane point of view, to encourage the use of horses of good quality, and the long experience that w^e have had in the inspection of stables has confirmed this opinion. In many large stables, where horses have been bought without much judgment, all the horses may be divided into two distinct types : first, the well-bred, smooth-hipped, fine-coated type, and, second, the low-bred, ragged-hipped, coarse- haired type. The horses of the first class will look fat and sleek, whereas the horses of the second type will look thin and jaded, although all the horses do the same amount of work. The Old Horse Class is another illustration. The veteran steeds shown in that class are almost in- variably horses of quality. They repre- sent the survival of the fittest ; and the fittest are the well-bred ones. 118 BULLETINS Copies of all Bulletins may be had on application NO. 1— WATERING AND BEDDING ISSUED IN 1909 During the p^ist fi\e months an agent of ihis Association has visited 157 stables, inchiding ahnost all the large livery and Itoarding stables in Boston and the neigh- boring cities and towns. One object of these inspections was to ascertain the prac- tice in regard to watering the horses during the night, after they have eaten their hay, and in regard to bedding them in the day time, as well as at night, especially on Sundays. The agent submits the follow- ing report: — THE WATERING OF HORSES AT NIGHT In most cases all the ha>- which horses in the city receive is fed to them at night. It is therefore especially important that they should be watered during the night. In an inspection of over 150 of the leading livery and boarding stables in Boston and the vicinity, particular attention was paid to this matter. All authorities agree, and experience teaches, that city- horses should be watered between 8 P. M. (9 P. M. would be better) and midnight; but it was found that less than half of the stables visited give their horses water after 7 P. M. And yet more stablemen volunteered in- formation on this subject than upon an>' other matter considered in the fi\e months during which the investigations were made. "A horse comes in hungry," w^as the usual way of putting it, " and he wants his sup- per so much that he will drink but little; and he ought not to drink deeply at that time, even if he wants to. Then he eats a quantity of dry, heating food. He shouldn't have water right after eating; but if he doesn't get a good drink two or three hours later, he will go through the night thirsty, and the heating food will burn out his insides for the lack of the water that is needed to give the nourish- ment of the food a chance to do the good it ought to be doing." Moreover, a horse not watered at night is very apt to drink too much in the morning. This night-watering is not only common humanity in hot weather, but it is almost ecjually valuable in winter. For appetite comes with the bracing efifect of cold weather, and horses eat more than they do in summer. Consequently, if this extra food is to do its part in giving the horse power to resist the cold and the strain of winter work, water must be given at the time when it will do the most good, which is, in most cases, between 8 and 10 P. M., or even later. Nothing does so much toward giving back a return for the food given in the way of extra strength, working endurance and good condition. The effect of this night-watering on the blood and general circulation is far-reach- ing. The thirst that follows the digestion of a meal is the call of nature for the water that is needed to help the good of the food to get into the flesh and blood of the ani- mal; and equally important is the part played by the water in sending the waste matter out of the body with the least pos- sible wear and tear on the organs that per- form this indispensable duty. A horse that remains thirsty all night cannot be ex- pected to last so long as one that is watered at the proper time.* *If anyone doubts whether horses need watering at night, let him go into a stable, say at 9 P. M., turn loose the horses which have not been watered since they were fed, and observe how eagerh- they will make for the watering trough. — H. C. M. 119 BEDDING AND REST There were twenty-five horses in a stable not far from Boston that was visited one Sunday morning. The horses were a fair, average lot of the kind used in delivery wagons and in general business. Most of them were in reasonably good working order, and the stable had the appearance of being well-kept. Of the twenty-five horses in the stable twenty-four were standing up, and just one was lying down. In twenty-four stalls there was no bedding; in one there was a good supply. One doesn't have to be a wizard to guess that the horse that was getting a needed rest was in the same stall with the bedding. All the other horses were being deprived of what might be the best part of their Sunday, namely, the op- portunity of taking their weight off legs and feet that usually have all, and more, than they can do to stand the strain of the week-day wear and tear. In another stable there is a horse that works in a single grocery wagon. He is between the shafts three days, but every fourth day remains in the stable. Each morning brings him exactly the same breakfast, and there is absolutely nothing in the care given that tells him whether he is to go out or stay in. But he knows how to keep his own calendar, and every fourth morning, just as soon as he has finished eating, he lies doMn in comfort on the plen- tiful supply of bedding which is kept under every horse in that stable at all times; and he frequently stays down the better part of the day. In still another stalile there arc pairs of horses that are used half a day and rested the other half. Encouraged by plenty of bedding, they have formed habits of resting their legs and feet at every possible oppor- tunity. There is an old saying that a good city horse could use up four sets of legs and feet. This means that a large part of his bodily strength and endurance is wasted because lameness and suffering wear out the unfortunate animal long before his time. " His shoulders is all gone savin' his legs," was the way one stableman described the condition of a horse that had worked his body muscles to pieces in trying to ease the strain of his battered legs and feet. As in the case of watering at night, the extra expense of giving a day-time bed to a horse is slight, compared with the great benefit gained from the rest and chance for repairs given the legs. The good that comes out of this is reflected in the condi- tion of the whole body; and all who own horses should see that this chance for needed rest is given their horses whenever they are in the stable. A horse will not lie down on the stable planks unless worn and weary beyond the point where it is right to use any animal. GILBERT TOMPKINS, Agent. The Directors of this Association earn- estly submit the foregoing facts and obser- vations to owners of work-horses and tc keepers of boarding and livery stables, partly as a matter of economy, but still more as a matter of humanity. Postscript. During the past winter four or five owners of work-horses, with large stables, have, at our suggestion, given their horses a good bed through the day on Sundays; and in each case they report that the horses take advantage of it, and are the better for it. The horses owned b>- William Bradley, the famous New York contractor, are remarkable for lasting long, and in Mr. Bradley's stables the horses are always watered at night, after eating their hay, and they are at all times particularly well bedded. 120 BULLETIN No. 4 VACATIONS FOR WORK-HORSES {Especially from the Economic Point of View By GILBERT TOMPKINS and HENRY C. MERWIN Everyone will admit that to give a work-horse an annual vacation is an act of humanity, and, we believe, it can be shown that it is an act of economy also. Se\'eral years ago one of the writers of this Bulletin w^as asked the following question by the owner of an old horse, not a work- horse in this case, but a carriage horse — " What shall I do wdth him? He is getting old and stifT and too slow to use. Shall I kill him, — or what?" The answer was : — " Try giving him a summer's rest, or per- haps even a vacation of six months. Take his shoes ofi, let him haxe plenty of grass or bran, and reduce his grain about one- half." Six months later the writer met the owner of this horse, who exclaimed: " I am much obliged to you for giving me a new horse!" Being asked what he meant, he replied that the vacation given to his old horse had so rejuvenated him that he was almost as good as ever, and was doing his work as a carriage horse with satis- faction to his owner and himself. Similar cases will be found stated in the appendix. Another experience was the follow^ing: A humane person bought an old cab horse in the city, — a very old horse, much over twenty. This horse was so stiff and re- duced in strength that it was wdth some dif^culty that he was driven out to the country. Six months later he had lim- bered up completely, and was supple and active enough to run away with the farmer who had charge of him. There are thousands of work-horses hard at work in cities to-day who have begun to run down hill, and will be worthless or nearly so within a year or two; and yet if these horses could be given a rest and a chance to recuperate, the>" would in six months' time be worth ahnost as much as the price originally paid for them. Horses are scarce and high, with no prospect of lower prices or of a better supply, and if a profit is to be made from the use of them, the loss occasioned by wear and tear must be kept down. Any business that considers merely its annual income without regard to the depreciation account will soon be in a bad state. It is well known that an average horse will last twice as long with one kind of a driver as he will with a worse kind, and with an annual vacation instead of constant, un- remitting labor, his health and usefulness will be correspondingly increased. Work and action must be followed by rest and relaxation. Even iron and steel have their limits, and machinery itself cannot be overtaxed without a loss of efficiency. Flesh and blood, mind and nerve, energy and courage, all these must depend on rest periods in which nature may bring them back to their normal strength. This is more widely recognized every year in its application to human beings, and it is time that those who own or use horses should realize that the same principle is equally applicable to horse-flesh. THE EFFECT OF CITY WORK ON HORSES Work-horses in the city, if worked too hard or too fast, or if not properly cared for, or if weakened by age, deteriorate in the following different ways: (1) They become thin. (2) Their feet become sore or diseased. (3) They become grain-burnt or other- wise weakened in digestion. (4) Their muscles become tired and strained. Let us take these up in their order. (1) The first symptom of age in a horse is apt to be a falling-off in flesh. Others become thin from having a bad dri\er, or from being over-hurried in their work, or from poor feeding. A short rest 121 will often do wonders for a horse in ihis condition. (2) The Fkkt. — Un(iuestional)l\- the best way to make a horse's feet last in the city is to slioe him with rui)ber or leather pads and plenty of tar and oakum under- neath. This keeps the feet soft, and deadens the concussion. But, with the best of shoeing, horse's feet will give out on the pa\-ements; and nothing will ten' are tired, their heads droop, they ha\e no life and they lack energy and Cjuickness of movement. Nc^thing but a rest will restore these horses; but a rest of a few months will do it, and it will increase their N'alue at least one-half. The wTiter of this Bulletin remembers seeing a horse used by a rural free delivery mail-carrier that, being naturally a good feeder, and having all the grain that he would eat, was in fine bodily condition; but he did double the work of an ordinary horse, that is, he travelled twenty-three miles a day for six days in the week, and he was so tired and stiff that it was difficult to urge him from a walk into a trot. It is from this stiffen- ing of the muscles that a horse really grows old, and if the muscles are restored by an annual vacation the useful life of the horse will be extended to an astonishing degree. A VACATION AT HOME Many stables, especially truck-horse stables, are so situated that a horse can be given a very good vacation without send- ing him away. That is, there is a yard connected with the stable where the horse can be turned loose in fine w-eather, with his shoes off. His feed should, of course, be changed to meet the changed condition of his life. His oats should be reduced at least one-half, but always according to the age of the horse, and plenty of bran should be given to him, with carrots, turnips and other vegetables, and, if possible, some grass, now and then, sent in from neigh- boring farms. In this way the horse can derive pretty nearly all the benefits of a vacation in the country without the ex- pense of sending him aw'ay, and w^ithout separating him from his well-known and beloved companions. A VACATION IN THE COUNTRY It is hardly necessary to say that the greatest care should be taken in selecting the farm where the horse is to be turned out for a rest. Few farmers know how to care for a horse, or will take any trouble to make him comfortable. It must be 122 remembered, of course, that the city horse, being used to high feed, camiot have all his grain taken away from him, especially if he be an old horse, without falling into a worse condition than his former one. Unless he is a young horse in rich pasturage, he must recei\'e some grain every day, and the old horse will need a good deal, per- haps one-half of his usual r^ition. Another thing to be looked out for is the annoyance from flies and mosciuitoes. This is so great, except in farms situated on high ground, that a horse, especially a city horse, cannot be turned out all day or even all night in a pasture or field without losing more than he would gain. In pas- tures of northern New England, where the land lies high and the nights are cool, horses can be turned out day and night; but within thirty or fifty miles of Boston, in midsummer, there is hardly more than an hour or so, in the w^hole tw^enty-four hours, when a horse can be turned out without being driven almost crazy by flies in the daytime, and mosquitoes at night. VACATION BY PIECEMEAL One way of giving a horse a vacation is to increase the number of horses at work, for any firm or concern, so as to permit each horse to lay off one day out of the six working days, or to work half a day only for one or more w^orking days in the week. For example, suppose a given concern has work enough to keep four three-hundred-dollar horses busy. Let them add one horse to the equipment, so that there will be five horses for the work. This would relieve toil-worn legs and feet and over-strained bodies and digestion, would lessen somewhat the amount of grain required^for each horse, and would greatly reduce the annual depreciation in the \alue of each horse. In this way, it is speaking within bounds to say, that the working life of all the horses would be prolonged from an average of six years to an a\erage of ten years. It should be remembered also that a horse in good condition and spirits is far more efticient, and will get over far more ground in a day, than one that is jaded or stiff from overwork; and besides, the good, active horse tends to make the driver a better and more efficient employee. Another consideration is the advertising value of a good horse in good condition and spirits. This increases every year, and in cities where work-horse parades are held it increases very fast. Customers look more and more at the horse used, directly or indirectly, in supplying their w^ants, and a fine horse gives an appearance of success and up-to-dateness that is worth much more than it costs. VACATIONS FOR POOR MEN'S HORSES A PROBLEM (Extract from a letter from the Ohio Humane Society.) " A difficult problem in this vacation work is that of the poor owner of a horse who earns a living for a family by running an express wagon or peddling. As a rule, he is too poor to grant the horse a vaca- tion; but we hope to provide for him later." The same problem confronts everyone who tries to help in this direction. The only way to meet the situation seems to be to provide some good " second-hand horses that may be lent — under reasonable and proper restrictions — as substitutes for the horses that need rest. Red Acre Farm, the Home for Horses, at Stow, twenty-five miles from Boston, has numerous reconstructed horses that it lends to people in that neighborhood, where they can frequently be inspected by the agents of the Farm. The Farm has no horses for lending to city owners; but it is ahvays ready to give free rest and treatment to the horses of poor men. A horse may be sent by anybody at any time to Red Acre Farm, with or without notice, and he will be cared for. This Association acts as the Boston Agent of the Farm. Pine Ridge, at Dedham, the annex of the Animal Rescue League (51 Carver Street, Boston), will also take poor men's horses, free of charge, for a vacation and for treatment. Pine Ridge is only ten miles from the city, and is therefore con- venienth' situated for this purpose. 123 APPENDIX TESTIMONY AS TO VACATIONS FOR WORK-HORSES A large bakery concern in Boston, the George G. Fox Co., says: — " Our system is to give each of our liorses tw^o weeks at pasture e\ery year, sending them four at a time while the seasfni lasts. We are well pleased with the results." EXPERIENCE OF A LEADING TRUCKMAN (Letter to the President of the l^oston Work-Horse Parade Association.) Boston, May l.'i, 191 L Dear Sir: — I write this letter to call your attention to a gray mare, stone blind, which we worked in our Inisiness for fourteen years. When she had been worked for about twelve years, she seemed to have a general breakdown, and about that time you and I had a conversation in regard to " reconstructed horses," and you advised me to give this mare two months' lay-ofT and see what effect it would have. I followed your instructions — we have a large yard — and this mare was turned out every day, and most of the time we hired a boy to take her out and give her some grass. In two months' time she came back perfectly well and seemingly as good as ever. We worked her for about two years from that time, and then we pensioned her and sent her to a farm. We have done the same thing with three others, and one of these was run down so badly that our veterinary surgeon advised me to have him killed. He declared that one of this horse's lungs was nearly gone, and thought he was not worth one dollar. W'e had used this horse for about eight years, and concluded that we would try giving him a rest. After three months' rest he was one of the hand- somest horses in Boston, and he remained so for about two years, and last year was shown with the " reconstructed horses " in the W^ork-Horse Parade. This year he died of blackwater on account of his being so fieshy. Our experience simply shows that your idea of a vacation for horses that are run down is correct, and I hope that many other horse owners will make the same experiment. The results I have no question in regard to. Very truly yours, W^M. D. gUIMBV. THE EXPERIENCE OF AN EXPRESSMAN " This horse went to pieces after eight years o' city delivery work, and wasn't worth anything; When he came to us, his legs were swollen, kidne\> weak, one lung going, and the other almost gone. He couldn't even go down an easy incline without stopping and struggling for breath. He was given some physic, and then laid off for the summer. We hired boys to lead him (and other horses) in tht grass of some open lots while the dew was on it, and let them graze afternoons. We gave this horse the freedom of the barn and the yard, and after a while he began stealing the other horses' feed on his own account. He finally filled out and improved so much that I took him for my own use. Now he feels so well that he won't even walk up hill. He's also a little on the alarm-clock pattern; when he stands in front of the office evenings, you have to tie him a little before six o'clock, or he will go home to supper and the stable of his own notion." Other horses that have been re-built by this same owner have been sold well, arc in satisfactory condition and are doing good work. His example is well worth following. RECONSTRUCTED HORSES In the Boston Work-Horse Parade there is a class for Reconstructed Horses. The medal-winner in this class two years ago was a chestnut mare bought for $75, in the fall, from a provision dealer whose horses are knocked about by boy drivers. This mare was restored to health by a rest, and sold for $300 in the spring. One year ago the medal was won by a horse only eight years old, sound except for blindness, that had been bought in the preceding fall for $15, as he lay in the gutter too weak to get up. He then weighed 1040 pounds; four months after- ward he was a strong, powerful animal weighing 1360 pounds. 124 1 THE HORSE By Hugo Krause If one animal, n^ore than an\- other, has a-ntributcd to the welfare and happiness of mankind, it has been the horse. Forced into captivity, domesticated, and inter- bred until he reveals the highest tiualitics of brute intelligence and beauty of form, he has been man's patient and faithful burden-bearer as well as his silent com- panion of the centuries. In literature, in art, in song; in war, as well as in peace, he has stood by his master's side. The history of the horse is in a large measure the history of the human race. He stands today as the highest embodi- ment of physical perfection, the most deli- cately constructed dynamo, the most beautiful animal creation that the inge- nuity of man has l)een able to evolve by artificial means. As we look upon this noble friend of man who is so often sub- jected to the neglect and cruelty of com- mercial greed and abject slavery, let us not forget that though he may be owned individually, he is ours by race inheritance, ours to use, ours to enjoy, ours to protect, and that we owe it to him as well as to ourselves to demand for him justice and fair play. THE DRIVER By Henry C. Merwin The highly de\eloped ner\'ous system of the horse renders him peculiarly capable of suffering. Rough usage, even if it stops far short of absolute brutality, keeps him in a constant state of fear or irritation. Anyone who is accustomed to obser\e horses can tell b>- a single glance at a given horse whether the driver is a good, bad, or indifferent one. The expression of the animal's eye and the carriage of his ears tell the story unmistakably. There are many teamsters who treat the horse as if he were a machine, and there- fore are guilty of continual cruelty toward him, which reacts on their own characters. Such men miss the opportunity of their lives, and their daily labor becomes to them a degradation and a curse. On the other hand, there are many humane dri\'ers, who have a real affection for their horses, and take the greatest pride in their appearance. These men make good husbands, good fathers, good citizens; and their daily labor is not only a means of livelihood, but an unfailing source of happi- ness. To reward and increase this class is the main object of the Boston Work-Horse Parade Association. 125 LIST OF ADVERTISERS American Coal Co 70 Atlantic Works 72 At wood & McManus 62 Babcock, E.

The maintenance of a free hospital for horses in the city of Boston. 8. A system of assisting purchasers to buy horses. 9. A system of Stable Inspection. These activities w^ill be found described separately, but briefl}' below. ASSISTING OTHER SOCIETIES We have almost daily requests from all j)arts of the United States, from the Provinces, and sometimes from more distant lands for informa- tion about Work-Horse Parades, to which wq are always glad to respond. We have a collection of slides for the stereopticon display of pictures of work-horses and other horses, and we are happy to lend them to any person or association desiring to use them. There was an excellent Work-Horse Parade in Lynn on June 17, 1912, held by the L3'nn Driving Club, and another equalh' good at Waltham, held on April 19, 1913. by the Waltham Animal Aid Society. This Association furnished the judges for both these Parades. MEETINGS FOR DRIVERS A Smoke Talk for drivers, stablemen and all other persons interested in horses was given on Januar\- 24th, at Kingsley Hall, with short addresses by Dr. F. H. Rowley, Mr. W. D. Quimb\' and the President of the Asso- ciation, followed by a display of stereopticon pictures. A similar enter- tainment, without the smoking, and with the addition of some musical performances w^as given at the same place on February 21st for the drivers, their wives, and any other ladies who wished to attend. The pictures were also shown at Wellesley College on April 24, 1913, upon the invitation of Miss Mary C^aswell. STABLE POSTERS Last summer we published for free distribution our Hot-Weather Rules, and, in resj)onse to applications from all parts of the country, sent out more than 10,000 copies. The\' may l)e had this year, upon request. We have also printed posters containing Drivers' Rules and Stable Rules. These rules have been prepared \\'!th tlie greatest care, and have been sub- mitted to the best experts and practical men that we could rtnd in Boston and New York. They will be given to all who apply for them. BULLETINS The Association issued in 1910 a Bulletin on Watering and Bedding, by Gilbert Tompkins. This Bulletin has been widely read and highly com- mended. A revised edition was published in August, 1911, and it is now reprinted, with some additions, at the end of this catalogue, where will be found also a Bulletin on X'acations for Work-Horses. We believe it to be a fact that an annual vacation for the work-horse, and especially for the old work-horse, is a matter not onl}' of humanity, but of economy. Copies of all Bulletins issued by this Association may be had free on application. The Bulletins thus far issued are: — No. 1. Watering and Bedding, by Gilbert Tompkins. No. 2. The Disposal of Old Horses, by Henry C. Merwin. No. 3. The Motor- Wagon and the Work-Horse, by Gilbert Tompkins. No. 4. Vacations for Work-Horses, by Gilbert Tompkins and Henry C. Merwin. No. 5. A Bulletin on the Feeding of Work-Horses, by Gilbert Tompkins, is in preparation. THE EQUINE SHOWER BATH For the past two years during excessively hot weather, this Association lias maintained nine showering stations where horses were showered with water from hose attached to a hydrant, or were sponged ofT by means of water pails and sponges. These stations were at Upham's Corner, Copley Square, Park Square, Charles St., Cambridge St., Minot St., Portland St., Scollay Square, and Dock Square. We are indebted to the following persons and corporations for the free use of their water and hose, and, in behalf of the horses, we most earnestly thank them: — the Pilgrim Congregational Church, the Franklin Savings Bank, M. F. Hanson & Co., the Boston Wine and Spirit Company, the Oriental Tea Company, W. D. Quimby. Thou- sands of animals were refreshed in this manner, and often a long line of panting horses, exhausted by the heat, were waiting their turn. 5 This showerini; service will be contiiuicd in the current \ear on any days when the thermometer is 85° or o\-er, j)ro\i(le(l that we have money enough on hand for the purpose. NON-RESIDENT AGENTS We hope soon to ha\e an imjiaid hut sympathetic agent, man or woman, in every city and town in Massachusetts, and elsewhere in New England, for the following purposes: To distribute our Bulletins, Posters and other publications; to rejiort cases of cruelty; to organize meetings and Work-Horse Parades; to assist the purchasers of horses in the manner described below. A FREE HOSPITAL FOR HORSES After long deliberation and with many misgivings, on account of our poverty, the Directors have decided to establish in Boston a free hos- pital for horses. It will be situated at the North End, in a poor district, and will be a rough, cheap affair, but conducted, we trust, in a spirit of hospitality and tenderness. This is intended as a stop-gap, until the \'ery fine hosi3ital, contemi)lated by the M. S. P. C. A., is erected. We have no intention of interfering with that society; we are on the best of terms with them, and their President is one of our most highly valued Directors. W'e have money enough in hand or promised to run the hospital for six months, and will trust in Providence for the future. ASSISTANCE TO PURCHASERS OF HORSES The frauds perpetrated upon buyers of horses, and the cruelties in- flicted upon worn-out animals in order to prepare them for sale have greatly increased during recent years. To combat these evils, the following scheme has been devised : — W'e have made a contract with several of the leading, reputable dealers in Boston and the vicinit>' by which they agree to sell a good horse to any person recommended by us, and, in case of an}^ dispute arising from the sale, to abide by our decision. Any person, resident anywhere in New England, can have the benefit of this agreement by calling at our office and registering his name and address. We make no charge for this service either to customer or dealer. But, in order not to encourage the traffic in unfit horses, we fix a mininumi price, and do not recommend any customer unless he is prepared to pa>- that sum. At present, the minimum price is $100 for a horse under 1300 pounds; ,1t;125 for a horse over 1300 pounds. STABLE INSPECTION The most important activity of this Association, next to the Parade, and perhaps not second to that, is the system of Stable Inspection. Entries for this ma\- be made at any time, and by stables of all kinds, including livery, hack and boarding stables. There is no entry fee. The stables are judged, not in competition with one another, but accordingly as they satisfy the standard fixed by the Association. The prizes are un- limited in number, and consist mainly of silver medals, awarded to the proprietors and to foremen and nightmen. The stables and the foremen are not always graded alike. Sometimes a foreman makes poor use of the facilities at his command, and, more often, a good foreman has to struggle against poor facilities and bad drivers. The Inspectors are the most expert and impartial men that we can find in Boston or elsewhere. Their reports are confidential, and are communicated only to the proprietor of the stable. The number of horses in the stables inspected every year is about 4,000. FAULTS IN STABLES Our Inspectors have found the most common faults in Work-Horse stables to be as follow^s: — (1) Scanty bedding. (2) Failure to bed the horses on Sundays and holidays in the daytime. (3) Failure to water the horses at night after they have eaten their hay. (4) Failure to keep the horses' feet soft. (5) Poor grooming. STABLE INSPECTION REPORT The following is a copy of the printed form for the Inspector's report: — The Inspectors are requested to report on the following matters and any others that may occur to them: — 1. How the horses are brought to the stable by the drivers, whether in a heatetl condition or not. 2. Manners and appearance of the horses, as showing whether they have been handled kindly or roughly. 3. Bodily condition of horses. 4. Condition of horses' feet. 5. Are the horses well groomed? 6. Examine the horses for galls or other sores, and state how many, if any, are galled. 7. Is the harness clean and well oiled; and especially are the insides of the collars clean? 8. Ventilation of stable and hay loft. 9. Cleanliness of stable, hay loft and waterinii troui^hs. 10. Drainage, and disposal of manure. 11. Temperature of stable, and whether tlie horses are subjected to draughts or not. 12. Size and character of stalls^ — width and lengtli. 13. Amount of bedding; and are the horses bedded during the day on Sundays, and when they stand in the stable on other days? 14. Hours of feeding and watering; and especially are the horses watered after eating their hay at night? 15. Quality and amount of hay and grain fed. 16. Bran mash, — when given. 17. Salt, when and how given. 18. Blanketing of horses in stable. 19. (In large stables) is there a drying room for blankets? 20. Are there rain-covers for the horses, or two sets of blankets — one for wet weather? lark? Signature of Inspector. Date For the prizes awarded this ^^ar to stables and stablemen see the pages at the end of the entry list. The Association is indebted to the following Stable Inspectors for their very careful and conscientious work: — E. F. COLDWELL ROBERT MASON J. B. MATTHEWS J. W. WHITNEY A. G. ROBINSON D. J. DELANEY For advice and co-operation in all our undertakings we are also espe- cially indebted to Dr. F. J. Sullivan, Dr. D. L. Bolger and Dr. P. J. Cronon. THE DISPOSAL OF OLD HORSES It is a melancholy fact that many of the fine horses to be seen in the Parade this year wall be sold when they become old, stifT or lame, and will, in many cases, suffer great misery before death releases them. There is a growing feeling in the community that old or disabled horses should not be sold, but should be killed or otherwise disposed of in a humane manner. To sell a worn-out horse, and thus consign him to a slow and painful death, will be looked ui)()n years hence as an almost incredible cruelty. RED ACRE FARM AND PINE RIDGE We act as agents for Red Acre Farm, the Home for Horses at Stow, and inquiries about the Farm, and how horses can be sent there, will be answered at any time by letter or telephone. Any horse which is a subject for charity ma>- be sent to the Farm by anybody, at any time, without notice; and the animal will be cared for. The post-office address of the Farm is South Acton, Mass. The railroad station is South Acton. The telephone is West Acton 8. Under the laws of Massachusetts (Chap. 133 of the Acts of the year 1908) cities and towns may turn over their old or disabled horses to Red Acre Farm, or to any other incorporated society for the relief of dumb animals. Boston, Somerville, Brookline, Waltham and other municipalities have availed themselves of this law, instead of selling the animals at auction. Pine Ridge, the annex at Dedham of the Animal Rescue League, is ready at any time to receive horses that need rest or treatment. Appli- cation should be made to the League at 51 Carver Street, Boston. Pine Ridge is only 10 miles out, and is thus a convenient place in which to give horses a vacation. OUR RESOURCES This Association has no endowment whatever, and although our offi- cers receive no compensation for their services and our rent is small, we are continually hampered by lack of money. Were it not, indeed, for the generosity of a few women, we could not carry on the Parade. We are especially indebted to Mrs. David Nevins, Mrs. R. A. Lawrence, Mrs. B. T. Morrison, Mrs. R. D. Evans and Mrs. Francis Peabody. We beg for assistance from those who love horses or are distressed by their sufferings. ELEVENTH ANNUAL PARADE, 1913 N^' horse that is dock-tailed, sick, lame, thin, galled, out of condition or wears an over-draw check, will be disqualified. Every entry not cHsqualified will receive a ribbon, either first (bhie), second (red), or third (yellow). In the Old Horse C'lass highly commended ribbons are awarded, which are equivalent to third prizes in other classes. F^ach blue ribbon winner will receive a brass medal to be worn as a jjermanent ornament on the harness. There is no restriction upon the number or grade of ribbons to be awarded. The Judges may award such ribbons as they deem to be de- served, subject to the following rules: (1) Age counts in favor of a horse. (2) Blue ribbons or first prizes are not to be awarded to green horses, and,, if possible, not to horses who have worked less than one year. (3) Blue ribbons or first prizes are not to be awarded to any horse, unless, allowing for the imperfections of age, he is a horse of good type and good quality.* MANNERS Manners should be considered, as showing whether or not the horse has been treated kindly. COLOR The color of a horse does not count, even in respect to matched pairs. BLINDNESS A blind horse is not disqualified. THE VEHICLE The vehicle does not count, except that a vehicle too heavy for the horse or horses drawing it should either disqualify the entry or reduce the grade of ribbon which it is to receive. ■For what is meant by quality, see the pages at the end of the catalogue. 10 THE HARNESS The value or beauty of the harness does not count; but a harness that is dirty, too heavy, especially in the bridle, or ill-fitting, especially in the collar, counts against the entry. Many a good horse has failed to recei\e a prize in former years by reason of his collar being too small or too large, or for some other defect in the harness. Throat-latches too tight, breeching too low down, and inside reins too long, in the case of pairs, are also common defects. Harness that is light, but strong enough to do the work required of it, is preferred to heavier harness. This rule will be observed especially in respect to bridles and other parts in which great strength is not required. Brass frontlets, unnecessary rings, tassels, plumes and other ornaments should not be used. Housings for collars, except for use in rain-storms, are strongly dis- approved by the Association as being unnecessary, expensive and adding to the weight of the harness. The single harness approved by the Association, and shown in a photograph printed in this catalogue, weighs only 53 pounds, collar and all, and it is big enough for any 1350-pound horse. Horses of that weight fre- quently carry a harness weighing 70 or 80 pounds. The bridle shown in the photograph weighs less than two pounds — about half the usual weight. DRIVERS' BADGES A medal or badge, to be worn on the person, will be given to every driver who shows in the Parade, in good condition and serviceably sound, the same horse or horses shown by him in the Parade of the year before. (In case of four-horse teams, it will be sufficient if three of the horses were shown by him the previous year.) A gold badge will be given to the most meritorious driver, all things considered; and silver badges will be given to the twenty who rank next.* It is believed that every good driver in Boston will be ambitious to obtain one of these" badges, and that possession of the badge will be the best recommendation that a driver could have. SPECIAL PRIZES In memory of R. A. Lawrence, its first President, the Association offers a gold medal to the owner and a silver medal to the driver, for the *The following gold and silver Itadgcs were awarded in 1912: Gold Badges: Thomas Barrett, Remus Burt. Silver Badges: John Anderson, John Arnold, Louis Bierweiler, F. H. Buckley, John Coyne, Joseph Cronin, Frank T. Daley, Joseph H. Doherty, Fred DeCorsey, William T. Dunbar, C. E. Everton, John B. Fay, Fred Feyler, M. J. Flynn, James Gagan, Patrick Hennessey, D. F. Lally, Joseph Leach, Michael O'Neil, William Parrott, Barney Portnoi, M. J. Shuckrowe, J.T. Stewart, John L. Thomas, C. G.Vaughn, Patrick Welch, Patrick White. 11 best four-horse team in the Parade, provided also that the driver takes rare of his horses. There are second and third prizes in this Class. Other special prizes, consisting of gold and silver medals and sums of money, are offered in the Veteran Driver, Old Horse and other classes 1)\ the following: Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, American Humane Education Society, Animal Rescue League, Red Acre Farm, Miss Julia H. Worthington, John W. Whitney, W. D. Quimby, George W. Harrington, James Forgie's Sons, Dr. D. P. Keogh and Fire Commissioner Charles H. Cole. DRIVING COMPETITION A Driving Competition for four-horse and six-horse teams will be held in or near Commonwealth Avenue, while the judging is taking place. Entries for this competition need not be made beforehand. The first prize will be a silver medal, to go to the driver. U. S. LETTER CARRIERS There is a class for the Letter Carriers in the Boston District who have horses; of these there are about thirty- five. Their yearly allowance for providing and maintaining a horse and wagon is only $350. This sum is very inadequate. The men do their best, but their horses and wagons make a poor showing. Onl}^ one has made an entry in the Parade of 1913. NOTICE TO SPECTATORS In many cases imperfections, not always visible to spectators at the reviewing-stand, very properly prohibit the giving of a prize or a ribbon of high grade to a particular horse. The horses pass the reviewing-stand at a walk, and at that gait a slight lameness would not be disclosed, whereas the Judges would have detected it when the horses were shown to them at a trot. Moreover, defects in harnessing, sores or galls under the harness, and other imperfections, not alw^ays apparent, frequently exclude a fine horse, or team of horses, from high honors. It should be remembered, too, that in this Exhibition age counts in favor of a horse, and that green horses are discriminated against. SYSTEM OF JUDGING Those classes in which special prizes are awarded, namely. Fire De- partments, Old Horses, Reconstructed Horses, Four-Horse 1'eams, Owners' and Foremen's Runabout Horses, Barrel-Racks, Hucksters, Local Expresses, 12 and the five Championship classes, are judged by tw(j Judges for each class who inspect the horses, and see t^em move. The other classes, com- prising about four-fifths of the Parade, are judged by two sets of Judges in the following manner: — As soon as the classes are in order, they start toward the reviewing- stand, with a distance of twenty feet between each entry. Two veterinarians are stationed about fift}' yards down the line, and the horses approach them at a slow trot. The veterinarians inspect the horses as they approach, halt them if necessary, and shunt oft" from the line any that are lame. If the owner or driver of a horse thus shunted ofT thinks that a mis- take has been made, he may ask the veterinarians to test his horse again, and in that case the veterinarians will give the horse another trial later. Those entries not excluded for lameness proceed at a w^alk, and are judged by two experts stationed fifty yards further toward the reviewing- stand. They " size up " the horses as they approach, halt them for a moment, if necessary, and look them over, and then decide on the grade of ribbon which the entry is to receive, — or decide that the entry is to receive nothing; and their decision, w^ithout announcing it to the driver, is tele- phoned by an assistant to the reviewing-stand. Each entry carries a num- ber corresponding with the number in the catalogue, so that this can easily be done. This plan has worked successfully for two years. NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC Is it not possible, we are often asked, for a man to have a few good- looking horses in the Parade, while at home he has five or ten times as many in poor condition? We answer. No. We reserve the right to inspect all the horses in the stable of an applicant for a place in the Parade; and every year we exclude many entries on the ground that the owner's treat- ment of his horses in general is not humane. In other cases, when the treat- ment of the owner's horses is good in most respects, but not up to the standard in others, we request the owner to make such reforms as are needed; and it is very seldom that he refuses. The advertising value of a place in the Parade is now very great, and we intend that no inhumane owner of a horse shall have the benefit of it. The Public may take the presence of a horse in this Parade as an assurance that the owner is a humane man in his treatment of horses generally. Our Judges are selected upon the same principle. 13 THE NUMBER OF FIRMS REPRESENTED IN THE PARADE Year uti;i 1912 1911 5;m 453 461 Year 191.1 1912 1911 1210 1048 1015 Year 1st 2d 3d 1912 601 178 53 1911 454 210 82 1910 499 208 91 1909 404 197 77 1908 362 155 70 1907 237 147 97 1906 165 129 94 Year 1913 1912 1911 27 29 36 Year 1913 1912 1911 315 332 327 19(19 l!Hif< 19(17 1906 19(15 19(14 1903 300 « VIBER 258 233 OF ENTRIES 181 203 174 1.54 1909 1908 1!«)7 1906 1905 1904 1903 847 738 685 593 5.30 444 433 906 PRIZES AWARDED 4th .5th H.C. 4 9 4 7 26 2 873 26 56 839 17 68 866 30 83 802 23 34 655 39 43 625 24 38 543 PRIZES TO VETERAN DRIVERS 1910 1909 1908 1907 1906 38 37 19 23 24 DRIVERS' BADGES 1910 1909 1908 1907 1906 288 190 394 505 366 POINTS OF A GOOD STABLE Horses walked on starting out in the morning, and after the noon feed. Men bring the horses in at noon, and at night, cool and breathing easily. [^egs well rubbed if wet or muddy, or if the horses are tired. Head, ears and neck well rubbed, if wet from rain or sweat. Horses sponged under collar, saddle and crupper. Horses well brushed if dry. Feet washed and examined for nails. Eyes, nose and dock sponged in summer. In very hot weather, and then only, horses wiped all over with a wet sponge on coming in. (This does not mean washing the horse, much less turning the hose on him.) Horses given a little water, but not much, on coming in warm. No grain fed for at least an hour. Horses watered when cool, then hayed, watered again, and grained. (In any case, watered at night, after eating their hay. This is especially necessary in summer.) Plenty of bedding, and horses bedded down all day Sunday. Hay and grain of the best quality. A bran mash Saturday night or Sunday noon; cool in summer, hot in winter. A mash twice a week if work is light. A lump or block of salt always within reach of the horse. Hayloft kept clean. Harness, especially collars, kept clean. Wide stalls. Easy runway. Horses tied long, so that they can lie with heads on the floor. Plenty of fresh air, but no draughts. No fumes from manure pit. Stalls not boarded up, but open or grated in the upper part. Drying-room for wet blankets. Stable quiet at night and on Sundays. Horses cleaned Sunday morning. Slatted outside doors for hot weather. Stable foreman good tempered, not a drinking man, and able to keep the drivers up to the mark. Comfortable room, with a bathtub, for the man in charge. Most important of all — Horses handled gently, neither struck, nor yelled at, nor sworn at. Owner drops in often. POINTS OF A BAD STABLE Horses hurried on starting in the morn- ing, and after the noon feed. Horses brought in hot and breathing hard. Harness stripped off roughly, and horses rushed into stalls without rubbing, clean- ing or sponging. Horses' legs washed. Horses allowed to drink their fill, no matter how hot ; or not watered at all. Grain fed before the horses are rested. Feet not washed or examined until the horse goes lame. Horses receive no water after eating their hay, until next morning. Scanty bedding. No bedding on Sundays until night, and horses watered only twice. Hay and grain of poor quality. Bran mash not given — ■ too much trouble. Horses salted only when somebody hap- pens to think of it. Hayloft dusty and dirty. Harness unclean ; sweat allowed to ac- cumulate on inside of collars. Narrow stalls. Steep runway, with narrow turns. Horses tied short for fear of their being cast, as is likely when they are put up dirty. Stable close — no ventilating shaft. Windows dirty. Manure pit ventilates into stable. Stalls boarded up high, where the horses' heads are. Men loafing in the stable in the even- ing and on Sunday. Horses not cleaned on Sunday. Windows broken; doors left open; cold draughts in winter. No slatted outside doors for hot nights. No place for drying wet blankets. Uncomfortable room for man in charge; no bathtub. Stable foreman addicted to drink. Drivers imitate the foreman. Worst of all — Horses handled roughly, knocked about ; general atmosphere of noise and profanity. Owner never sees the horses taken out or put up, nor on Sundays. 15 DRIVERS' RULES 1. Start at a walk, and let your horse work very easily for the first half hour. 2. A heavy draft horse should never be driven faster than a walk, with or without a load. 3. Look to your harness. Avoid these faults especially : — Bridle too long or too short. Blinders pressing on the eye or flapping. (An open bridle is best for most horses.) Throat-latch too tight. Collar too tight or too loose, or dirty on the inside. Shaft-girth too loose. Traces too long. Breeching too low down or too loose. Inside reins too long, in the case of pairs. 4. Do not let your horse drive himself; but handle the reins gently. Never jerk the reins ; — to do that is the sure mark of a bad driver. 5. Try to deliver your load with as little backing as possible. Backing a heavy load is apt to strain the hind legs. 6. Take the horse out of the shafts as much as possible ; and if you drive a pair or four, unfasten the outside traces while the horses are standing ; they will rest better that way. 7. Teach your horses to go into the collar gradually. When a load is to be started, speak to the horses and take a firm hold of the reins so that they will arch their necks, keep their legs under them, and step on their toes. A loose rein means sprawling and slipping, often with one horse ahead of the other. 8. Water your horse as often as possible. Water in moderate quantities will not hurt him, so long as he keeps moving. 9. Blanket your horse carefully when he stands, especially if he is at all hot. Re- peated slight chills stififen and age a horse before his time. 10. Bring your horse in cool and breathing easily. If he comes in hot, he will sweat in the stable, and the sudden stoppage of hard work is bad for his feet. 11. In hot weather or in drawing heavy loads, watch your horse's breathing. If he breathes hard, or short and quick, it is time to stop. 12. Remember that the horse is the most nervous of all animals, and that little things annoy and irritate him. Remember that he will be contented or miserable accordingly as you treat him. 16 "- %. \ UPP-iV^ A, ', r- ^' Si 'i- 1 ''^ ■■;l ;! iD r*^ Q ■ M 1 ^ |f ' ■ 1 Vn a ' (X) i 1 1A STABLE RULES 9 The best order in feeding is : — Water, hay, water again, grain. Never give grain to a tired horse. Let him rest and nibble hay for an hour or two first. Grain in the manger before the horse comes in looks bad. 3. Water the horses as often as possible ; but let the horse that comes in hot drink a few swallows only. 4. Always water the horse after he has eaten his hay at night. Do not go to bed leaving him thirsty all night. v5. Do not forget to salt the horse once a week ; or, better yet, keep salt always before him. He knows best how much he needs. 6. Give a bran mash Saturday night or Sunday noon ; and on Wednesday night also, if work is slack. After a long day in very cold or wet weather, a hot mash, half bran and half oats, with a tablespoonful of ginger, will do the horse good. Put very little salt, if any, in the mash. 7. If the horse does not eat well, or slobbers, examine his teeth. 8. Keep a good, deep, dry bed under the horse while he is in the stable, day or night, on Sundays especially. The more he lies down, the longer his legs and feet will last. 9. In order to do well, the horse must be kept warm. Give him a blanket on cool nights in late summer or early fall, and an extra blanket on an extra cold night in winter. 10. In cold rains do not tie up the horse's tail. The long tail prevents the water from running down the inside of his legs, and keeps off a current of air from his belly. 11. Take off the harness, collar and all, when the horse comes in to feed. He will rest better without it. 12. Never put a horse up dirty or muddy for the night. At least brush his legs and belly, and straighten his hair. 13. In hot weather, and in all weathers if the horse is hot, sponge his eyes, nose, dock, the harness marks, and the inside of his hind-quarters when he first comes in. 14. When the horse comes in wet with rain, first scrape him, then blanket him, and rub his head, neck, loins and legs. If the weather is cold put on an extra blanket in 20 minutes. Change the wet blanket when the horse dries. DO NOT WASH THE LEGS. Rub them dry, or bandage loosely with thick bandages. It is far more important to have the legs warm and dry than clean. 15. Examine the horse's feet when he comes in, and wash them if he does not wear pads. If a horse in the city is not shod in front with pads, tar and oakum, which is the best way, it is absolutely necessary to keep his feet soft by packing the.m, or by wrapping a wet piece of old blanket or carpet around the foot, or by applying some hoof dressing or axle oil, inside and out, at least three times a week. 16. Let the horse have a chance to roll as often as possible ; it will rest and refresh him. Give him a little clean earth or a piece of sod to eat now and then ; he craves it, and it is good for his stomach and blood. 17. Speak gently to the horse, and do not swear or yell at him. He is a gentleman by instinct, and should be treated as such. The stable is the horse's home, and it is your privilege to make it a happy' one. 17 HOT-WEATHER RULES 1. Load lightly, and drive slowly. 2. Stop in the shade if possible. 3. Water your horse as often as possible. So long as a horse is working, water in moderate quantities will not hurt him. But let him drink only a few swallows if he is going to stand still. 4. When he ccmes in after work, sponge ofiE the harness marks and sweat, his eyes, his nose and mouth, and the dock. Wash his feet but not his legs. 5. If the thermometer is 75 degrees or higher, wipe him all over with a wet sponge. Use vinegar water if possible. Do not turn the hose on him. 6. Saturday night, give a bran mash, cold ; and add a tablespoonful of saltpetre. 7. Do not use a horse-hat, unless it is a canopy-top hat. The ordinary bell-shaped hat does more harm than good. 8. A sponge on top of the head, or even a cloth, is good if kept wet. If dry it is worse than nothing. 9. If the horse is overcome by heat, get him into the shade, remove harness and bridle, wash out his mouth, sponge him all over, shower his legs and give him four ounces of aromatic spirits of ammonia, or two ounces of sweet spirits of nitre, in a pint of water, or give him a pint of cofifee warm. Cool his head at once, using cold water, or, if neces- sary, chopped ice, wrapped in a cloth. 10. If the horse is off his feed, try him with two quarts of oats mixed with bran, and a little water; and add a little salt or sugar. Or give him oatmeal gruel or barley water to drink. 11. Watch your horse. If he stops sweating suddenly, or if he breathes short and quick, or if his ears droop, or if he stands with his legs braced sideways, he is in danger of a heat or sun stroke and needs attention at once. 12. If it is so hot that the horse sweats in the stable at night, tie him outside. Un- less he cools of? during the night, he cannot well stand the next day's heat. 18 Wn.LIAM D.

CITY END ^Our milk is transported to the city in refrigerator cars in express trains and is received in a modern plant with every facility for the sanitary handl- mg of milk, viz., — machinery for the cleansing of cans and bottles by caustic alka- lies and steam — filling and capping of bottles by automatic apparatus eliminating handling by men — lavatories and shower baths for employees — steam laundry for the cleansing and sterilizing of employees' suits — a chemical laboratory to guard the rich- ness of our milk — a bacteriological laboratory to guard the cleanliness of our milk. PASTEURIZATION ^We do not stop with this, but finally subject our milk to Pasteurization in recently perfected apparatus which holds the milk for twenty minutes at a temperature of 1 45 degrees Fahrenheit. Pasteurization under these scientific conditions destroys any germs of disease which may have reached milk in spite of the above described system of precaution and, according to our best investigators, does not injure the digestibility of milk. ^The system above described gives our supply the highest possible degree of security. ^Our plant and methods of handling milk are open at all times for your inspection.

Daley Clarence Webb Peter Katzman John Murphy QUALITY IN WORK-HORSES Our judges are instructed not to award blue ribbons or first prizes to any horse, no matter how good his condition, unless he is a horse of good type and quality. Quality, it need not be said, is just as important in a work-horse as in a race-horse. Quality might perhaps be described as that fineness of texture which good breeding produces. The bone in a well-bred horse is more dense and less brittle than the bone of a coarse-bred animal. It is true, of course, that well-bred horses are sometimes defi- cient in quality, but no horse has quality unless he is well-bred. The horse with quality has more endurance, and he is less subject to disease and to unsoundness of feet and legs than is the low-bred horse. Consequently it is more humane to use horses with quality than those without quality. Quality and beauty are usually found together, and yet, as all horsemen know, one may exist without the other. A horse may have quality without being in the least beautiful. For example, he may have a ewe neck, a large head, long ears, a Roman nose, a sway back, flat sides, slack loins, calf-knees, cow hocks and a rat tail; and yet if his coat is short and silky, if his head though large is bony and well-cut, if his ears though long are well-shaped, if his legs are flat and clean, and if his hoofs are of fine, close texture, then the horse has quality. Horses of the Shire and Clyde breeds often look coarse- at first sight on account of their Roman noses and hairy legs, but in the best specimens of these breeds, the long hair about the fetlock is fine and silky, and their heads, though not handsome, are clean-cut. Quality is thus described by Professor Rufus C. Obrecht of the University of Illinois: " Quality in a horse is of prime importance. This term when applied to horses has reference to their bones, skin, hair and muscles. Its presence is shown by clean-cut features of the head; firm, clean bone; tendons well defined; close fit- ting, glove-like skin; hair fine and silky, an abundance of finish and absence of coarseness, but not necessarily small bone. When slightly exerted the skin will show clearly an intricate network of veins. Coarse hair is usually associated with a coarse skin and a soft, spongy bone which is weak and subject to disease. With qual- ity the muscles stand out prominently and are clearly defined, which aids in giving a horse finish. Quality is a strong indica- tion of the extent of a horse's endurance. These two characteristics are closely asso- ciated, and a horse lacking in quality is comparatively a cheap animal." This Association has always maintained that it is highly important, from the humane point of view, to encourage the use of horses of good quality, and the long experience that we have had in the inspection of stables has confirmed this opinion. In many large stables, where horses have been bought without much judgment, all the horses may be divided into two distinct types: first, the well-bred, smooth-hipped, fine-coated type; and sec- ond, the low-bred, ragged-hipped, coarse- haired type. The horses of the first class will look fat and sleek, whereas the horses of the second type will look thin and jaded, although all the horses do the same amount of work. The Old Horse Class is another illustration. The veteran steeds shown in that class are almost invariably horses of quality. They represent the survival of the fittest ; and the fittest are the well-bred 131 BULLETINS Copies of all Bulletins may be had on application NO. 1— WATERING AND BEDDING FIRST ISSUED IN 1909 During the past five months an agent of this Association has visited 157 stables, inckiding ahiiost all the large livery and boarding stables in Boston and the neigh- boring cities and towns. One object of these inspections was to ascertain the prac- tice in regard to watering the horses during the night, after they have eaten their hay, and in regard to bedding them in the day time, as well as at night, especially on Sundays. The agent submits the follow- ing report: — THE WATERING OF NIGHT HORSES AT In most cases all the hay which horses in the city receive is fed to them at night. It is therefore especially important that they should be watered during the night. In an inspection of over 150 of the leading livery and boarding stables in Boston and the vicinity, particular attention was paid to this matter. All authorities agree, and experience teaches, that city horses should be watered between 8 P. M. (9 P. M. would be better) and midnight; but it was found that less than half of the stables visited give their horses water after 7 P. M. And yet more stablemen volunteered in- formation on this subject than upon any other matter considered in the five months during w^hich the investigations were made. " A horse comes in hungry," was the usual wa\' of putting it, " and he wants his sup- per so much that he will drink but little; and he ought not to drink deeply at that time, even if he wants to. Then he eats a quantity of dry, heating food. He shouldn't have water right after eating; but if he doesn't get a good drink two or three hours later, he will go through the night thirsty, and the heating food will burn out his insides for the lack of tiie water that is needed to give the nourish- ment of the food a chance to do the good it ought to be doing." Moreover, a horse not watered at night is very apt to drink too much in the morning. This night-watering is not only common humanity in hot weather, but it is almost equally valuable in winter. For appetite comes with the bracing effect of cold weather, and horses eat more than they do in summer. Consequently, if this extra food is to do its part in giving the horse power to resist the cold and the strain of winter work, water must be given at the time when it will do the most good, which is, in most cases, between 8 and 10 P. M., or even later. Nothing does so much toward giving back a return for the food given in the way of extra strength, working endurance and good condition. The effect of this night-watering on the blood and general circulation is far-reach- ing. The thirst that follows the digestion of a meal is the call of nature for the water that is needed to help the good of the food to get into the flesh and blood of the ani- mal; and equally important is the part played by the water in sending the waste matter out of the body with the least pos- sible wear and tear on the organs that per- form this indispensable duty. A horse that remains thirsty all night cannot be ex- pected to last so long as one that is watered at the proper time.* *At a men's club near Boston, I was once making an address about horses, in the course of which I urged the necessity of night watering. A man in the audience, who proved to be the night watchman in a large stable near by, declared that he knew of a stable where the horses were not watered at night, and would not drink even if they had the opportu- nity. I asked his permission to test the horses in this respect, and we went to the stable at about eleven o'clock. There were twenty horses, and we unfas- tened them, one after another, so that they could go to the watering trough if they so desired. It was a bitterly cold night in midwinter, but of the twenty horses all but one drank, and several drank so much that I feared they would have colic in consequence. H. C. M. 132 BEDDING AND REST There were twenty-five horses in a stable not far from Boston that was visited one Sunday morning. The horses were a fair, average lot of the kind used in delivery wagons and in general business. Most of them were in reasonably good working order, and the stable had the appearance of being well-kept. Of the twenty-five horses in the stable twenty-four were standing up, and just one was lying down. In twenty-four stalls there was no bedding; in one there was a good supply. One doesn't have to be a wizard to guess that the horse that was getting a needed rest was in the same stall with the bedding. All the other horses were being deprived of what might be the best part of their Sunday, namely, the op- portunity of taking their weight off legs and feet that usually have all, and more, than they can do to stand the strain of the week-day wear and tear. In another stable there is a horse that works in a single grocery wagon. He is between the shafts three days, but every fourth day remains in the stable. Each morning brings him exactly the same breakfast, and there is absolutely nothing in the care given that tells him whether he is to go out or stay in. But he knows how- to keep his own calendar, and every fourth morning, just as soon as he has finished eating, he lies down in comfort on the plen- tiful supply of bedding which is kept under every horse in that stable at all times; and he frequently stays down, the better part of the day. In still another stable there are pairs of horses that are used half a day and rested the other half. Encouraged by plenty of bedding, they have formed habits of rest- ing their legs and feet at every possible opportunity. There is an old saying that a good city horse could use up four sets of legs and feet. This means that a large part of his bodily strength and endurance is wasted because lameness and suffering wear out the unfortunate animal long before his time. " His shoulders is all gone savin' his legs," was the way one stableman de- scribed the condition of a horse that had worked his body muscles to pieces in trying to ease the strain of his battered legs and feet. As in the case of watering at night, the extra expense of giving a day-time bed to a horse is slight, compared with the great benefit gained from the rest and chance for repairs given the legs. The good that comes out of this is reflected in the condi- tion of the whole body; and all who own horses should see that this chance for needed rest is given their horses whenever they are in thestable. A horse will not lie down on the stable planks unless worn and weary beyond the point where it is right to use any animal. GILBERT TOMPKINS, Agent. The Directors of this Association ear- nestly submit the foregoing facts and obser- vations to owners of work-horses and to keepers of boarding and livery stables, partly as a matter of economy, but still more as a matter of humanity. Postscript. During the past two years six or eight owners of work-horses, with large stables, have, at our suggestion, given their horses a good bed through the day on Sundays; and in each case they report that the horses take advantage of it, and are the better for it. The horses owned by William Bradley, the famous New- York contractor, are remarkable for lasting long, and in Mr. Bradley's stables the horses are always watered at night, after eating their hay, and they are at all times particularly well bedded. 133 BULLETIN No. 4 VACATIONS FOR WORK-HORSES {Especially from the Economic Point of View) By GILBERT TOMPKINS and HENRY C. MERWIN (ABRIDGED) THE EFFECT OF CITY WORK ON HORSES There are thousands of horses hard at work in cities to-day who have begun to run down hill, and will be worthless or nearly so within a year or two; and yet if these horses could be given a rest and a chance to recuperate, they would in six months' time be worth almost as much as the price originally paid for them. Horses are scarce and high, with no prospect of lower prices or of a better supply, and if a profit is to be made from the use of them, the loss occasioned by wear and tear must be kept down. Work-horses in the city, if worked too hard or too fast, or if not properly cared for, or if weakened by age, deteriorate in the following different ways: (1) They become thin. (2) Their feet become sore or diseased. (3) They become grain-burnt or other- wise weakened in digestion. (4) Their muscles become tired and strained. Let us take these up in their order. (1) The first symptom of age in a horse is apt to be a falling-off in flesh. Others become thin from having a bad driver, or from being over-hurried in their work, or from poor feeding. A short rest will often do wonders for a horse in this condition. (2) The Feet. — ^Unquestionably the best way to make a horse's feet last in the city is to shoe him with rubber or leather pads and plenty of tar and oakum under- neath. This keeps the feet soft, and deadens the concussion. But, with the best of shoeing, horses' feet will give out on the pavements; and nothing will tend to preserve their feet more than an occa- sional let-up during which their shoes can be removed, their feet can get back to the ground, their heels can expand, and fever in the feet may be reduced by the moisture of dew and wet grass, swampy land, etc. (3) The Grain-Burnt Horse. — It must be remembered that a horse at work in the city is not in a normal condition. The constant feeding on dry food, and es- pecially on such stimulating food as oats and corn, produces an unnatural condi- tion of the blood. All city horse-owners know and dread the disease of the kidneys called " black-water." This is especially a Monday morning disease, and when a Sunday and a holiday come together, so that the work-horse has two days of con- tinuous rest, many cases of black-water always occur. One year in Chicago there were 150 deaths from this disease in one day. Even if a horse does not suffer from acute disease of this kind, his whole system becomes feverish and abnormal from years of high graining without any chance to get back to nature, such as a horse gets by being turned out to grass. Everybody who has seen a horse turned loose in a lot after being confined in a stable must have observed how he first paws up a little turf with his forefoot, and thus gets at the earth underneath. He is more anxious to eat this earth than to eat the grass, and it is certain that the earth is wholesome for the horse. It has a cleansing effect, and is a cure for worms. Nothing, in short, is so good for the digestion of a horse, especially after long years of confinement in a stable and high feeding, than an opportunity to eat grass and earth. (4) Tired Muscles. — ^Not everybody realizes that a horse, to the eye, may be in perfect condition, and yet his muscles may be so tired and strained that move- ment is positively painful to him, and any movement but a slow one almost impos- sible. W'ork-horses and hack-horses in this condition are often seen in the street, especially when they begin to grow old. These horses look fairly fat and sleek, but 134 they are tired, their heads droop, they have no life and they lack energy and quickness of movement. Nothing but a rest will restore these horses; but a rest of a few months will do it, and it will increase their ^•alue at least one-half. The writer of this Bulletin remembers seeing a horse used by a rural free delivery mail-carrier that, being naturally a good feeder, and having all the grain that he could eat, was in fine bodily condition; but he did double the work of an ordinary horse, that is, he travelled twenty-three miles a day for six days in the week, and he was so tired and stiff that it was difificult to urge him from a walk into a trot. It is from this stiffen- ing of the muscles that a horse really grows old, and if the muscles are restored by an annual vacation the useful life of the horse will be extended to an astonishing degree. A VACATION AT HOME Many stables, especially truck-horse stables, are so situated that a horse can be given a very good vacation without send- ing him away. That is, there is a yard connected with the stable where the horse can be turned loose in fine weather, with his shoes off. His feed should, of course, be changed to meet the changed condition of his life. His oats should be reduced at least one-half, but always according to the age of the horse, and plenty of bran should be given to him, with carrots, turnips and other vegetables, and, if possible, some grass, now and then, sent in from neigh- bor ng farms. In this way the horse can derive pretty nearly all the benefits of a vacation in the country without the ex- pense of sending him away, and without separating him from his well-known and beloved companions. A VACATION IN THE COUNTRY It is hardly necessary to say that the greatest care should be taken in selecting the farm where the horse is to be turned out for a rest. Few farmers know how to care for a horse, or will take any trouble to make him comfortable. It must be remembered, of course, that the city horse, being used to high feed, cannot have all his grain taken away from him, especially if he be an old horse, without falling into a worse condition than his former one. Unless he is a young horse in rich pasturage, he must receive some grain every day, and the old horse will need a good deal, per- haps one-half of his usual ration. Another thing to be looked out for is the annoyance from flies and mosquitoes. This is so great, except in farms situated on high ground, that a horse, especially a city horse, cannot be turned out all day or even all night in a pasture or field without losing more than he would gain. In pas- tures of northern New England, where the land lies high and the nights are cool, horses can be turned out day and night; but within thirty or fifty miles of Boston, in midsummer, there is hardly more than an hour or so in the whole twenty-four hours, when a horse can be turned out without being driven almost crazy by flies in the daytime and mosquitoes at night. VACATION BY PIECEMEAL One way of giving a horse a vacation is to increase the number of horses at work, for any firm or concern, so as to permit each horse to lay off one day out of the six working days, or to work half a day only for one or more working days in the week. For example, suppose a given concern has work enough to keep four three-hundred-dollar horses busy. Let them add one horse to the equipment, so that there will be five horses for the work. This would relieve toil-worn legs and feet and over-strained bodies and digestion, would lessen somewhat the amount of grain required for each horse, and would greatly reduce the annual depreciation in the value of each horse. In this way, it is speaking within bounds to say, that the working life of all the horses would be prolonged from an average of six years to an average of ten years. It should be remembered also that a horse in good condition and spirits is far more efficient, and will get over far more ground in a day, than one that is jaded or stiff from overwork; and besides, the good, active horse tends to make the driver a better and more efficient employee. Another consideration is the advertising value of a good horse in good condition and spirits. This increases every year, and in cities where work-horse parades are held 135 it increases very fast. Customers look more and more at the horse used, directly or indirectly, in supplying their wants, and a fine horse gives an appearance of success and up-to-dateness that is worth much more than it costs. VACATIONS FOR POOR MEN'S HORSES A PROBLEM (Extract from a letter from the Ohio Humane Society.) "A difficult problem in this vacation work is that of the poor owner of a horse who earns a living for a family by running an express wagon or peddling. As a rule, he is too poor to grant the horse a vaca- tion; but \\x' hope to provide for him later." The same problem confronts everyone who tries to help in this direction. The only way to meet the situation seems to be to provide some good " second-hand " horses that may be lent — ^under reasonable and proper restrictions — as substitutes for the horses that need rest. For a short account of two Homes for Horses near Boston, see page 9 of this catalogue. The Work-Horse He feels the Springtime's glowing life In every coursing vein; The scents and sounds of wak'ning Earth That are akin to pain,— And feels the bit between his teeth And knows the fretting rein. He sees the grass, — a carpet soft Of living, growing green- He sees the trees far overhead, — A shelter and a screen; With blindered eyes he tries to see The flowers that grow between. The cattle on a thousand hills Graze through the livelong day; Fair are the pastures where the sheep And happy lambkins play; But only unremitting toil Is his— to bear alway. He cannot crop the herbage sweet Tho' hungered he may be; Even the water to his thirst Is giv'n as charity,— And yet, of living creatures — none More beautiful than he! But ever while he lives and toils. Wherever he may be- Always I breathe a little prayer In all humility: "O God, remember first this horse, "And then, — remember me!" — Elizabeth Jacohi 136 APPENDIX TESTIMONY AS TO VACATIONS FOR WORK-HORSES A large bakery concern in Boston, the George G. Fox Co., says: — " Our system is to give each of our horses two weeks at pasture every year, sending them four at a time while the season lasts. We are well pleased with the results." EXPERIENCE OF A LEADING TRUCKMAN (Letter to the President of the Boston Work-Horse Parade Association.) Boston, May 15, 1911. Dear Sir: — I write this letter to call your attention to a gray mare, stone blind, which we worked in our business for fourteen years. When she had been worked for about twelve years, she seemed to have a general breakdown, and about that time you and I had a conversation in regard to " reconstructed horses," and you advised me to give this mare two months' lay-off and see what effect it would have. I followed your instructions — we have a large yard — and this mare was turned out every day, and most of the time we hired a boy to take her out and give her some grass. In two months' time she came back perfectly well and seemingly as good as ever. We worked her for about two years from that time, and them we pensioned her and sent her to a farm. We have done this same thing with three others, and one of these was run down so badly that our veterinary surgeon advised me to have him killed. He declared that one of this horse's lungs was nearly gone, and thought he was not worth one dollar. We had used this horse for about eight years, and concluded that we would try giving him a rest. After three months' rest he was one of the hand- somest horses in Boston, and he remained so for about two years, and last year was shown with the " reconstructed horses " in the Work-Horse Parade. This year he died of blackwater on account of his being so fleshy. Our experience simply shows that your idea of a vacation for horses that are run down is correct, and I hope that many other horse owners will make the same experiment. The results I have no ques- tion in regard to. X'ery truly yours, WM. D. QUIMBY. THE EXPERIENCE OF AN EXPRESSMAN " This horse went to pieces after eight years of city delivery work, and wasn't worth anything. When he came to us, his legs were swollen, kidneys weak, one lung going, and the other almost gone. He couldn't even go down an easy incline without stopping and struggling for breath. He was given some physic, and then laid off for the summer. We hired boys to lead him (and other horses) in the grass of some open lots while the dew was on it, and let them graze afternoons. We gave this horse the freedom of the barn and the yard, and after a while he began stealing the other horses' feed on his own account. He finally filled out and improved so much that I took him for my own use. Now he feels so well that he won't even walk up hill. He's also a little on the alarm-clock pattern; when he stands in front of the office evenings, you have to tie him a little before six o'clock, or he will go home to supper and the stable of his own notion." Other horses that have been re-built by this same owner have been sold well, are in satisfactory condition and are doing good work. RECONSTRUCTED HORSES In the Boston Work-Horse Parade there is a class for Reconstructed Horses. The medal-winner in this class three years ago was a chestnut mare bought for $75, in the fall, from a provision dealer whose horses are knocked about by boy drivers. This mare was restored to health by a rest, and sold for $300 in the spring. Two years ago the medal was won by a horse only eight years old, sound except for blindness, that had been bought in the preceding fall for $15, as he lay in the gutter too weak to get up. He then weighed 1040 pounds; four months after- ward he was a strong, powerful animal weighing 1360 pounds. This is Blind Tom, the Red Acre Farm Horse whose picture is shown in this catalogue. 137 LIST OF ADVERTISERS American Agricultural Chemical Co. American Coal Co.

It was hoped to accomplish two things: first, to induce owners and drivers to take more interest in their horses and more pride in their appearance; and, secondly, to induce the public generally to take an interest in the horses at work in our streets, and especially in those owned by persons with whom they have dealings. Much, we believe, has been accomplished in these directions, but much remains to be done. Boston now stands high, comparatively speak- ing, in the treatment of dumb animals; and yet lame, thin, jaded, over- worked horses are still seen in our streets every day. We might, if we chose, make Boston renowned for its beautiful, well-kept, work-horses, — and what greater attraction could a city possess! We earnestly ask the people of Boston, if not from motives of hu- manity and justice, then from a feeling of civic pride, to do their part in bringing about this end; and it can easily be done if every inhabitant, male and female, will refuse to employ, or to deal with, any person who uses an unfit horse. We appeal especially to the women of Boston, for experience has taught us that women, far more than men, are affected by the sufferings of dumb animals. WHAT THE ASSOCIATION DOES The first Work-Horse Parade in America was held by this Associa- tion on May 30, 1903. Since then we have held an annual Parade, and almost every year have added some new branch to our work. In fact, the name of the Association, which was originally Boston Work-Horse 3 Parade Association, long ago became misleading, and in July, 1913, it was changed to the present name, — Boston Work-Horse Relief Associa- tion. We maintain an office open throughout the year, and, beside holding the Parade, carry on the following activities: — 1. A free hospital for horses. 2. A system of Stable Inspection. 3. The showering of horses in the streets during days of excessive heat. 4. A system of assisting purchasers to buy horses. 5. The holding of Meetings and Smoke Talks for Drivers and horse- men generally, with the display of stereopticon pictures. 6. The Preparation and Distribution of Stable Rules, of Drivers' Rules, and of Hot-Weather Rules. 7. The Publication and Distribution of Bulletins in regard to the care and treatment of horses. 8. Assisting other Societies to hold Work-Horse Parades, and giving addresses, illustrated by stereopticon pictures. These activities will be found described separately, but briefly below. THE FREE HOSPITAL FOR HORSES The Ashton Lawrence Free Hospital for Horses — so named in honor of the founder and first President of the Association — was opened on August 1, 1913, at 78 Northampton Street. This Hospital is intended for horses owned by poor men, and no charge of any kind is made for board or treatmept. In a case of emergency any horse will be received at the Hospital and treated. Every veterinary surgeon in Massachusetts is at liberty to send horses to the hospital without notice, and to treat them there, or to have them treated by the Hospital surgeons, as he may prefer. The Hospital serves also as a receiving station for the Animal Rescue League. The League assists us in paying the rent of the building and in many other ways. Visitors are welcome at all times. The Hospital is intended to be, and is, we believe, not only a Hospital but a model stable. Every patient is groomed and cared for as if he were a ten-thousand-dollar race horse, and it is remarkable how much horses in this Hospital gain in weight and general appearance, and how, in many cases, animals that enter the hospit d with a reputation for kicking and biting, become, under kind treatment, gentle and docile in a surprisingly short time. Some extraordinary cures have been effected at the Hospital, and we ascribe them, first to the great skill of the veterinary surgeon in charge, 4 Dr. Frank J. Sullivan of the Animal Rescue League, and his assistant, Mr. Archie McDonald, also of the League; and, secondly, to the careful nursing which the horses receive. There are always two men in the Hospital from 6 A.M. to 6 P.M., and a night-nurse from 6 P.M. to 6 A.AL The following veterinary surgeons have also kindly offered their services to the Hospital: — Dr. P. J. Cronon, Dr. C. W. Delano, Dr. Francis Abele, Jr., Dr. T. C. Downes, Dr. E. T. Harrington, Dr. L. H. Howard, Dr. Florence Kimball, Dr. H. \\\ Kingman, Dr. Daniel D. Lee, Dr. A. \\\ May, Dr. E. F. Manning, Dr. E. P. McKenna, Dr. F. T. Mc(;iinchey, Dr. \V. H. Shannon. Dr. Edwin F. Schroeder, Dr. W. M. Simpson, Dr. W'ilbert Soule, Dr. J. W. Tobin and Dr. Samuel F. Wads- worth. The Directors desire also to thank the ofihcers and men of Fire Engine Company No. 23, whose station adjoins the Hospital, and to whom we are indebted for many kind acts. We are also indebted to the officers and men of Fire Engine Com- pany No. 43, at Andrew Square, who rendered great assistance to the employees of this Association in showering horses that passed through the square during the excessively hot days of last summer. The M. S. P. C. A. has kindly furnished free transportation to the Hos- l^ital in its electric ambulance. THE FUTURE OF THE HOSPITAL The Hospital was started mainly with the intention of filling a much- needed want until the big Hospital of the M. S. P. C. A. is ready for use, which will be, we understand, sometime during the winter of 1915. But, after much consideration and discussion, the Directors have decided to make the Hospital a permanent institution, believing that its situation and surroundings are such that it will serve a class of horses and owners that would not otherwise be reached. Th6 Hospital is, as it should be, in a real slum neighborhood, close to the traffic of the city, and it has already acquired the confidence of poor owners throughout the city and in the adjoining cities and towns. STABLE INSPECTION The most important work of this Association, next to the Parade and the Hospital, and perhaps not even second to them, is the Stable Inspec- tion. Entries for this may be made at any time, and by stables of all kinds, including livery, hack, and boarding stables. There is no entry fee or charge of an\- kind. Every stable entered is inspected by an expert 5 employed by us, and a confidential report of any defects in the treatment of the horses or in the management of the stable is made to the proprietor. The stable is inspected again, and perhaps three or four times, — as often as may be necessary. The prizes are unlimited in number and consist chiefly of silver medals awarded to foremen and nightmen. The number of horses in the stables inspected every year is about 4000. The form of stable report to be filled out by the inspector will be found on a subsequent page. We are indebted to the following inspectors for their careful and con- scientious work: — E. F. Coldwell, J. B. Matthews, John H. Jewett and Robert Mason. THE EQUINE SHOWER BATH For the past three years, during excessively hot weather, this Associa- tion has maintained nine showering stations where horses were showered with water from hose attached to a hydrant, or w^ere sponged off by means of water pails and sponges. These stations were last year at Andrew- Square, Upham's Corner, Copley Square, Park Square, 728 Tremont St., Charles St., Cambridge St., Minot St., Portland St., Scollay Square, and Dock Square. We are indebted to the following persons and corpora- tions for the free use of their water and hose last year, and, in behalf of the horses, we most earnestly thank them: — the City of Boston, Ceme- tery Department; City of Boston, Fire Department; the Pilgrim Congre- gational Church, the Bay State Trust Company, M. F. Hanson & Co., the Boston Wine and Spirit Company, the Oriental Tea Company, W. D. Quimby, Guy A. Raffa. Thousands of animals were refreshed in this manner, and often a long line of panting horses, exhausted by the heat, were waiting their turn. This year the showering will be continued and drivers' buckets will be filled from the hose, but our buckets and sponges will have to be dis- pensed with, in accordance with the regulations of the Commissioner of Animal Industry. ASSISTANCE TO PURCHASERS OF HORSES The frauds perpetrated upon buyers of horses, and the cruelties in- flicted upon worn-out animals in order to prepare them for sale, have greatly increased during recent years. Four-fifths of the horse advertisements in the Sunday papers are fraudulent. To combat these evils, the following scheme has been devised : — We have made a contract with several of the leading, reputable dealers in Boston and the vicinity by which they agree to sell a good horse to any person recommended by us, and, in case of any dispute arising from the sale, to abide by our decision. Any person, resident anywhere in New England, can have the benefit of this agreement by calling at our office and registering his name and address. We make no charge for this service either to customer or dealer. But, in order not to encourage the traffic in unfit horses, we fix a minimum price, and do not recommend any customer unless he is prepared to pay that sum. At present, the minimum price is $100 for a horse under 1300 pounds; $125 for a horse over 1300 pounds. MEETINGS FOR DRIVERS A Smoke Talk and Meeting for Drivers, Stablemen and other persons was held at Kingsley Hall on Bowdoin Street, in February, with a stere- opticon exhibition of pictures of horses. During the present year we mean to give two such entertainments, if our funds permit, at which we hope to have the assistance of some good singers who are employed as stablemen by the City of Boston and who sang this year at a meeting of the Stablemen's Union. STABLE POSTERS We have prepared and published for free distribution, Hot Weather Rules, Stable Rules and Drivers' Rules, and have given away about 15,950 copies of the Hot Weather Rules, and about 17,300 copies, each, of the Drivers' Rules and Stable Rules. These Rules were prepared with the greatest care, and after consultation with many veterinary surgeons and practical horsemen, including officers of the United States Cavalry. We have had requests for them from all parts of this country, from Manitoba and Alberta, from Nova Scotia and Newfoundland, from the Philippine Islands and from Ireland. They have been adopted by the Massachusetts Agricultural College for the instruction of its students, are soon to be translated for use by the Government among Indian tribes, and were re- cently reprinted for its own use by a corporation in Maine owning nine hundred horses. These Rules printed on plain paper are given aw^ay to all who apply for them, and we furnish them printed on cardboard as posters at cost price, namely, three cents apiece. To Horseshoers and Livery Stablekeepers we will send the cardboard Rules free, if application for them is made at our office by telephone or letter. 7 BULLETINS The Association issued in 1910 a Bulletin on Watering and Bedding, by Gilbert Tompkins. This Bulletin has been widely read and highly com- mended. A revised edition was published in August, 1911, and it is now reprinted, with some additions, at the end of this catalogue, where will be found also a Bulletin on Vacations for Work-Horses. We believe it to be a fact that an annual vacation for the work-horse, and especially for the old work-horse, is a matter not only of humanity, but of economy. Copies of all Bulletins issued by this Association may be had free on application. The Bulletins thus far issued are: — No. 1. Watering and Bedding, by Gilbert Tompkins. No. 2. The Disposal of Old Horses, by Henry C. Merwin. No. 3. The Motor-Wagon and the Work-Horse, by Gilbert Tompkins. No. 4. Vacations for Work-Horses, by Gilbert Tompkins and Henry C. Merwin. ASSISTING OTHER SOCIETIES We have almost daily requests for information about \A'ork-Horse Parades and' Work-Horses from all parts of this country, and from foreign lands. We have a collection of slides for the stereopticon display of horse- pictures, w^hich we are always glad to lend to any humane association or person. We are ready to assist in the holding of a Work-Horse Parade anywhere in the State, and have done so in Lynn, Waltham, Newton, and Framingham. THE DISPOSAL OF OLD HORSES It is a melancholy fact that many of the fine horses to be seen in the Parade this year will be sold when they become old, stiff or lame, and will, in many cases, suffer great misery before death releases them. There is a growing feeling in the community that old or disabled horses should not be sold, but should be killed or otherwise disposed of in a humane manner. To sell a worn-out horse, and thus consign him to a slow and painful death, will be looked upon years hence as an almost incredible cruelty. RED ACRE FARM AND PINE RIDGE We act as agents for Red Acre Farm, the Home for Horses at Stow, and inquiries about the Farm, and how. horses can be sent there, will be answered at any time by letter or telephone. Any horse which is a subject for charity may be sent to the Farm by anybody, at any time, without 8 notice; and the animal will be cared for. The post-office address of the Farm is South Acton, Mass. The railroad station is South Acton. The telephone is West Acton 8. Under the laws of Massachusetts (Chap. 133 of the Acts of the year 1908) cities and towns may turn over their old or disabled horses to Red Acre Farm, or to any other incorporated society for the relief of dumb animals. Boston, Somerville, Brookline, Waltham and other municipalities have availed themselves of this law, instead of selling the animals at auction. Pine Ridge, the annex at Dedham of the Animal Rescue League, is ready at any time to receive horses that need rest or treatment. Appli- cation should be made to the League at 51 Carver Street, Boston. Pine Ridge is only 10 miles out, and is thus a convenient place in which to give horses a vacation. OUR RESOURCES This Association has no endowment whatever, and although our offi- cers receive no compensation for their services and our rent is small, we are continually hampered by lack of money. Were it not, indeed, for the generosity of a few^ women we could not carry on the Parade or the Hos- pital. We are especially indebted to Mrs. David Kevins, Mrs. R. A. Lawrence, and Mrs. B. T. Morrison. Wc ask for assistance from those who love horses or are distressed by their sufferings. FAULTS IN STABLES Our Inspectors have found the most common faults in Work-Horse stables to be as follows: — (1) Scanty bedding. (2) Failure to bed the horses on Sundays and holidays in the daytime. (3) Failure to water the horses at night after they have eaten their hay. (4) Failure to keep the horses' feet soft. (5) Poor grooming. The Association records with deep regret the death of Dr. F. H. Osgood, for many years a leading veterinary surgeon in this state, to whom the Association was greatly indebted, not only for his assistance at the Parade in a difficult capacity, but also for his valuable advice always freely and kindly given. STABLE INSPECTION REPORT The following is a copy of the printed form for the Inspector's report: — The Inspectors are requested to report on the following matters and any others that may occur to them: — 1. How the horses are brought to the stable by the drivers, whether in a heated condition or not. 2. Manners and appearance of the horses, as showing whether they have been handled kindly or roughly. 3. Bodily condition of horses. 4. Condition of horses' feet. 5. Shoeing. 6. Are the horses well groomed? 7. Examine the horses for galls or other sores, and state how many, if any, are galled. 8. Is the harness clean and well oiled; and especially are the insides of the collars clean? 9. Ventilation of stable and hay loft. 10. Cleanliness of stable, hay loft and watering troughs. 11. Drainage, and disposal of manure. 12. Temperature of stable, and whether the horses are subjected to draughts or not. 13. Size and character of stalls — width and length. 14. Amount of bedding; and are the horses bedded during the day on Sundays, and when they stand in the stable on other days? 15. Hours of feeding and watering; and especially are the horses watered after eating their hay at night? 16. Quality and amount of hay and grain fed. 17. Bran mash, — when given. 18.

Remarks: [])ate Signature of Inspector. 10 POINTS OF A GOOD STABLE Horses walked on starting out in the morning, and after the noon feed. Men bring the horses in at noon, and at night, cool and breathing easily. Legs well rubbed if wet or muddy, or if the horses are tired. Head, ears and neck well rubbed, if wet from rain or sweat. Horses sponged under collar, saddle and crupper. Horses well brushed if dry. Feet washed and examined for nails. Eyes, nose and dock sponged in summer. In very hot weather, and then only, horses wiped all over with a wet sponge on coming in. (This does not mean washing the horse, much less turning the hose on him.) Horses given a little water, but not much, on coming in warm. No grain fed for at least an hour. Horses watered when cool, then hayed, watered again, and grained. (In any case, watered at night, after eating their hay. This is especially necessary in summer.) Plenty of bedding, and horses bedded down all day Sunday. Hay and grain of the best quality. A bran mash Saturday night or Sunday noon; cool in summer, hot in winter. A mash twice a week if work is light. A lump or block of salt always within reach of the horse. Hayloft kept clean. Harness, especially collars, kept clean. Wide stalls. Easy runway. Horses tied long, so that they can lie with heads on the floor. Plenty of fresh air, but no draughts. No fumes from manure pit. Stalls not boarded up, but open or grated in the upper part. Drying-room for wet blankets. Stable quiet at night and on Sundays. Horses cleaned Sunday morning. Slatted outside doors for hot weather. Stable foreman good tempered, not a drinking man, and able to keep the drivers up to the mark. Comfortable room, with a bathtub, for the man in charge. Most important of all — Horses handled gently, neither struck, nor yelled at, nor sworn at. Owner drops in often. POINTS OF A BAD STABLE Horses hurried on starting in the morn- ing, and after the noon feed. Horses brought in hot and breathing hard. Harness stripped off roughly, and horses rushed into stalls without rubbing, clean- ing or sponging. Horses' legs washed. Horses allowed to drink their fill, no matter how hot ; or not watered at all. Grain fed before the horses are rested. Feet not washed or examined until the horse goes lame. Horses receive no water after eating their hay, until next morning. Scanty bedding. No bedding on Sundays until night, and horses watered only twice. Hay and grain of poor quality. Bran mash not given — too much trouble. Horses salted only when somebody hap- pens to think of it. Hayloft dusty and dirty. Harness unclean ; sweat allowed to ac- cumulate on inside of collars. Narrow stalls. Steep runway, with narrow turns. Horses tied short for fear of their being cast, as is likely when they are put up dirty. Stable close — no ventilating shaft. Windows dirty. Manure pit ventilates into stable. Stalls boarded up high, where the horses' heads are. Men loafing in the stable in the even- ing and on Sunday. Horses not cleaned on Sunday. Windows broken; doors left open; cold draughts in winter. No slatted outside doors for hot nights. No place for drying wet blankets. Uncomfortable room for man in charge; no bathtub. • Stable foreman addicted to drink. Drivers imitate the foreman. Worst of all — Horses handled roughly, knocked about ; general atmosphere of noise and profanity. Owner never sees the horses taken out or put up, nor on Sundays. 11 DRIVERS' RULES 2 a load. 1. Start at a walk, and let your horse work very easily for the first half hour. A heavy draft horse should never be driven faster than a walk, with or without 3. Look to your harness. Avoid these faults especially : — Bridle too long or too short. Blinders pressing on the eye or flapping. (An open bridle is best for most horses.) Throat-latch too tight. Collar too tight or too loose, or dirty on the inside. Shaft-girth too loose. Traces too long. Breeching too low down or too loose. Inside reins too long, in the case of pairs. 4. Do not let your horse drive himself; but handle the reins gently. Never jerk the reins ; — to do that is the sure mark of a bad driver. 5. Try to deliver your load with as little backing as possible. Backing a heavy load is apt to strain the hind legs. 6. Take the horse out of the shafts as much as possible ; and if you drive a pair or four, unfasten the outside traces while the horses are standing ; they will rest better that way. 7. Teach your horses to go into the collar gradually. When a load is to be started, speak to the horses and take a firm hold of the reins so that they will arch their necks, keep their legs under them, and step on their toes. A loose rein means sprawling and slipping, often with one horse ahead of the other. 8. Water your horse as often as possible. Water in moderate quantities will not hurt him, so long as he keeps moving. 9. Blanket your horse carefully when he stands, especially if he is at all hot. Repeated slight chills stiffen and age a horse before his time. 10. Bring your horse in cool and breathing easily. If he comes in hot, he will sweat in the stable; and, also, the sudden stoppage of hard work is bad for his feet. 11. In hot weather or in drawing heavy loads, watch your horse's breathing. If he breathes hard, or short and quick, it is time to stop. 12. Remember that the horse is the most nervous of all animals, and that little things annoy and irritate him. Remember that he will be contented or miserable accordingly as you treat him. 12 STABLE RULES 1. The best order in feeding is: Water, hay, water again, grain. 2. Never give grain to a tired horse, f^et him rest and nibble hay for an hour or tw^o first. Grain in the manger before the horse comes in looks bad. 3. Water the horses as often as possible ; but let the horse that comes in hot drink a few swallows only, until he is cool. 4. Always water the horse after he has eaten his hay at night. Do not go to bed leaving him thirsty all night. 5. Do not forget to salt the horse once a week ; or, better yet, keep salt always before him. He knows best how much he needs. 6. Give a bran mash Saturday night or Sunday noon ; and on Wednesday night also, if work is slack. After a long day in very cold or wet weather, a hot mash, half bran and half oats, with a tablespoonful of ginger, will do the horse good. Put very little salt, if any, in the mash. 7. If the horse does not eat well, or slobbers, examine his teeth. 8. Keep a good, deep, dry bed under the horse while he is in the stable, day or night, on Sundays especially. The more he lies down, the longer his legs and feet will last. 9. In order to do well, the horse must be kept warm. Give him a blanket on cool nights in late summer or early fall, and an extra blanket on an extra cold night in winter. 10. In cold rains do not tie up the horse's tail. The long tail prevents the water from running down the inside of his legs, and keeps of? a current of air from his belly. 11. Take ofi the harness, collar and all, when the horse comes in to feed. He will rest better without it. 12. Never put a horse up dirty or muddy for the night. At least brush his legs and belly, and straighten his hair. 13. In hot weather, and in all weathers if the horse is hot, sponge his eyes, nose, dock, the harness marks, and the inside of his hind-quarters when he first comes in. 14. When the horse comes in wet with rain, first scrape him, then blanket him, and rub his head, neck, loins and legs. If the weather is cold put on an extra blanket in 20 minutes. Change the wet blanket when the horse dries. DO NOT WASH THE LEGS. Rub them dry, or bandage loosely with thick bandages. It is far more important to have the legs warm and dry than clean. 15. To prevent scratches, dry the horse's fetlocks and heels when he comes in, espe- cially in winter ; and rub on a little glycerine or vaseline before he goes out in snow or mud. 16. Examine the horse's feet when he comes in, and wash them if he does not wear pads. If a horse in the city is not shod in front with pads, tar and oakum, which is the best way, it is absolutely necessary to keep his feet soft by packing them, or by wrapping a wet piece of old blanket or carpet around the foot, or by applying some hoof dressing or axle oil, inside and out, at least three times a week. 17. Let the horse have a chance to roll as often as possible ; it will rest and refresh him. Give him a little clean earth or a piece of sod to eat now and then ; he craves it, and it is good for his stomach and blood. 18. Speak gently to the horse, and do not swear or yell at him. He is a gentleman by instinct, and should be treated as such. The stable is the horse's home, and it is your privilege to make it a happy one. N. B. It is very important that stables should be well ventilated ; but do not let a draft blow on the horses. Look out especially for horses in stalls near a door. 13 HOT WEATHER RULES 1. Load lightly, and drive slowly. 2. Stop in the shade if possible. 3. Water your horse as often as possible. So long as a horse is working, water in moderate quantities will not hurt him. But let him drink only a few swallows if he is going to stand still. Do not fail to water him at night after he has eaten his hay. 4. When he comes in after work, sponge off the harness marks and sweat, his eyes, his nose and mouth, and the dock. Wash his feet but not his legs. 5. If the thermometer is 75 degrees or higher, wipe him all over with a wet sponge. Use vinegar water if possible. Do not turn the hose on him. 6. Saturday night, give a bran mash, cold ; and add a tablespoonful of saltpetre. 7. Do not use a horse-hat, unless it is a canopy-top hat. The ordinary bell-shaped hat does more harm than good. 8. A sponge on top of the head, or even a cloth, is good if kept wet. If dry it is worse than nothing. 9. If the horse is overcome by heat, get him into the shade, remove harness and bridle, wash out his mouth, sponge him all over, shower his legs and give him four ounces of aromatic spirits of ammonia, or two ounces of sweet spirits of nitre, in a pint of water, or give him a pint of coffee warm. Cool his head at once, using cold water, or, if neces- sary, chopped ice, wrapped in a cloth. 10. If the horse is off his feed, try him with two quarts of oats mixed with bran, and a little water ; and add a little salt or sugar. Or give him oatmeal gruel or barley water to drink. 11. Watch your horse. If he stops sweating suddenly, or if he breathes short and quick, or if his ears droop, or if he stands with his legs braced sideways, he is in danger of a heat or sun stroke and needs attention at once. 12. If it is so hot that the horse sweats in the stable at night, tie him outside. Un- less he cools off during the night, he cannot well stand the next day's heat. 14 CATALOGUE TWELFTH ANNUAL PARADE, 1914 NY horse that is dock-tailed, sick, lame, thin, galled, out of condition or wears an over-draw check, will be disqualified. Every entry not disqualified will receive a ribbon, either first (blue), second (red), or third (yellow). In the Old Horse Class highly commended ribbons are awarded, which are equivalent to third prizes in other classes. Each blue ribbon winner will receive a brass medal to be worn as a permanent ornament on the harness. There is no restriction upon the number or grade of ribbons to be awarded. The Judges may award such ribbons as they deem to be de- served, subject to the following rules: (1) Age counts in favor of a horse. (2) Blue ribbons or first prizes are not to be awarded to green horses, and, if possible, riot to horses who have worked less than one year. (3) Blue ribbons or first prizes are not to be awarded to any horse, unless, allowing for the imperfections of age, he is a horse of good type and good quality.* MANNERS Manners should be considered, as showing whether or not the horse has been treated kindly. COLOR The color of a horse does not count, even in respect to matched pairs. BLINDNESS A blind horse is not disqualified. THE VEHICLE The vehicle does not count, except that a vehicle too heavy for the horse or horses drawing it should either disqualify the entry or reduce the grade of ribbon which it is to receive. *For what is meant by quality, see the pages at the end of the catalogue. 15 THE HARNESS The value or beauty of the harness does not count; but a harness that is dirty, too heavy, especially in the bridle, or ill-fitting, especially in the collar, counts against the entry. Many a good horse has failed to receive a prize in former years by reason of his collar being too small or too large, or for some other defect in the harness. Throat-latches too tight, breeching too low down, and inside reins too long, in the case of pairs, are also common defects. Harness that is light, but strong enough to do the work required of it, is preferred to heavier harness. This rule will be observed especially in respect to bridles and other parts in which great strength is not required. Brass frontlets, unnecessary rings, tassels, plumes and other ornaments should not be used. Housings for collars, except for use in rain-storms, are strongly dis- approved by the Association as being unnecessary, expensive and adding to the weight of the harness. The single harness approved by the Association weighs only 53 pounds, collar and all, and it is big enough for any 1350-pound horse. Horses of that weight frequently carry a harness weighing 70 or 80 pounds. The bridle weighs less than two pounds — about half the usual weight. DRIVERS' BADGES A medal or badge, to be worn on the person, will be given to every driver who shows in the Parade, in good condition and serviceably sound, the same horse or horses shown by him in the Parade of the year before. (In case of four-horse teams, it will be sufficient if three of the horses were shown by him the previous year.) A gold badge will be given to the most meritorious driver, all things considered ; and silver badges will be given to the twenty who rank next. * It is believed that every good driver in Boston will be ambitious to obtain one of these badges, and that possession of the badge will be the best recommendation that a driver could have. SPECIAL PRIZES In memory of R. A. Lawrence, its first President, the Association offers a gold medal to the owner and a silver medal to the driver, for the *The following gold and silver badges were awarded in 1913: Gold Badges to M. T. Folger, Christian Lorenson. Silver Badges to John Arnold, Robert F. Atwood, Harry F. Baker, Frank Bellis, Samuel J. Blair, John Brown, J. L. Callahan, P. J. Daley, Frank Eiistis, Bernard Fox, T. J. Harrington, R. E. Harrington, Robert Hezlitt, Fred Hitchcock, George F. James, William Kenncy, Oliver Marion, Henry McGowan, W F. Meese, John A. Morehouse, J. B. Nealon, Michael O'Neil, Clarence Pleshaw, Henry Sheehan, Louis H. Steinberg, Edward J. Sweeney, John J. Tennihan, F. J. Wilkins, William F. Wilson. l(i 1 best four-horse team in the Parade, provided also that the driver takes care of his horses. There are second and third prizes in this Class. Other special prizes, consisting of gold and silver medals and sums of money, are offered in the Veteran Driver, Old Horse, and other classes by the following: Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, American Humane Education Society, Animal Rescue League, Red Acre Farm, Miss Julia H. Worthington, John W. Whitney, W. D. Quimby, George W. Harrington, F. L. Jordan, James Forgie's Sons. The M. S. P. C. A. also offers money prizes for the drivers of the best four and six horse teams wearing open bridles. DRIVING COMPETITION A Driving Competition for four-horse and six-horse teams will be held in or near Commonwealth Avenue while the judging is taking place. Entries for this competition need not be made beforehand. The first prize will be a silver medal, to go to the driver. U. S. MAIL AND LETTER CARRIERS There is a class for those Letter Carriers in the Boston District who have horses. These men are poorly paid by the Post Office Department, and their horses make a poor showing. There is also this year a class for Parcel Post horses. These horses, as a rule, are, throughout the whole country, a disgrace to the United States government. This is true indeed of the mail horses generally in the United States. The regulations of the Post Office Department and the provisions in the mail contracts are strict enough, but the officials of the Department do not enforce them. A really humane Postmaster General could and would change all this in a month. In Boston, the present Mail Contractor, w^e are glad to say, has fine horses and keeps them in the best condition ; but he has nothing to do with the Parcel Post horses or with the Letter Carriers' horses. NOTICE TO SPECTATORS In many cases imperfections, not always visible to spectators at the reviewing-stand, very properly prohibit the giving of a prize or a ribbon of high grade to a particular horse. The horses pass the reviewing-stand 17 at a walk, and at that gait a slight lameness would not be disclosed, whereas the Judges would have detected it when the horses were shown to them at a trot. Moreover, defects in harnessing, sores or galls under the harness, and other imperfections, not always apparent, frequently exclude a fine horse, or team of horses, from high honors. It should be remembered, too, that in this Exhibition age counts in favor of a horse, and that green horses are discriminated against. SYSTEM OF JUDGING Those classes in which special prizes are awarded, namely. Fire De- partments, Old Horses, Reconstructed Horses, Four-Horse Teams, Owners' and Foremen's Runabout Horses, Barrel-Racks, Hucksters, Local Expresses, and the five Championship classes, are judged by two Judges for each class who inspect the horses, and see them move. The other classes, com- prising about four-fifths of the Parade, are judged by two sets of Judges in the following manner: — As soon as the classes are in order, they start toward the reviewing- stand, wath a distance of twenty feet between each entry. Two veterinarians are stationed about fifty yards down the line, and the horses approach them at a slow trot. The veterinarians inspect the horses as they approach, halt them if necessary, and shunt off from the line any that are lame. If the owner or driver of a honse thus shunted off thinks that a mis- take has been made, he may ask the veterinarians to test his horse again, and in that case the veterinarians will give the horse another trial later. Those entries not excluded for lameness proceed at a walk, and are judged by two experts stationed fifty yards further toward the reviewing- stand. They " size up " the horses as they approach, halt them for a moment, if necessary, and look them over, and then decide on the grade of ribbon which the entry is to receive, — or decide that the entry is to receive nothing; and their decision, without announcing it to the driver, is tele- phoned by an assistant to the reviewing-stand. Each entry carries a num- ber corresponding with the number in the catalogue, so that this can easily be done. This plan has worked successfully for three years. 18 THE NUMBER OF FIRMS REPRESENTED IN THE PARADE Year 1914 1913 1912 1911 1910 1909 1908 1907 1906 1905 19<-)4 1903 563 534 453 460 357 300 258 233 181 203 174 154 TOTAL NUMBER OF ENTRIES 1914 1913 1912 1911 1266 1210 1048 1015 1907 1906 1905 1904 1903 685 593 530 444 433 PRIZES AWARDED ^ear 1st 2d 3d 4th 5th H.C.

The following described brands of milk we are enabled to offer pasteurized under the recently available method which is the perfection of the art of milk handling. By this method, milk is pasteurized after it is placed in the bottle, instead of in bulk, as is the usual practice. Furthermore, under this method bottles are capped with metal crown seals, which give a sanitary flush covering to the bottle and which make impossible the opening of the bottle without detection by the customer. This method has the endorsement of eminent sanitarians. These brands are especially recommended for those desiring a superior milk and for use in the home modifica- tion of milk in infant feeding : CROWN BRAND From selected dairies — capped with metal crown seals — pasteurized in-the-bottle, — 1 1 cents per quart. BLUE LABEL MILK From very high-grade dairies — from tuberculin tested cows — capped with metal crown seals — pasteurized in-the- bottle, — 1 3 cents per quart. D. WHITING & SONS 570 RUTHERFORD AVE..

Quality, it need not be said, is just as important in a work-horse as in a race-horse. Quality might perhaps be described as that fineness of texture which good breeding produces. It means a head and limbs free from "meat," tendons well defined, a close-fitting, glove-like skin, hair fine and silky, and a general clean-cut, high-bred appearance. The bone in a well-bred horse is more dense and less brittle than the bone of a coarse-bred animal. It is true, of course, that well-bred horses are sometimes defi- cient in quality, but no horse has quality unless he is well-bred. The horse with quality has more endurance, and he is less subject to disease and to unsoundness of feet and legs than is the low-bred horse. Consequently it is more humane to use horses with quality than those without quality. Quality and beauty are usually found together, and yet, as all horsemen know, one may exist without the other. A horse may have quality without being in the least beautiful. For example, he may have a ewe neck, a large head, long ears, a Roman nose, a sway back, flat sides, slack loins, calf-knees, cow hocks and a rat tail; and yet if his coat is short and silky, if his head though large is bony and well-cut, if his ears though long are well-shaped, if his legs are flat and clean, and if his hoofs are of fine, close texture, then the horse has quality. Horses of the Shire and Clyde breeds often look coarse at first sight on account of their Roman noses and hairy legs, but in the best specimens of these breeds, the long hair about the fetlock is fine and silky, and their heads, though not handsome, are clean-cut. In many large stables, where horses have been bought without much judg- ment, all the horses may be divided into two distinct types: first, the well-bred, smooth-hipped, fine-coated type; and sec- ond, the low-bred, ragged-hipped, coarse- haired type. The horses of the first class will look fat and sleek, whereas the horses of the second type will look thin and jaded, although all the horses do the same amount of work. The Old Horse Class is another illustration. The veteran steeds shown in that class are almost invariably horses of quality. They represent the survival of the fittest; and the fittest are the well-bred ones. If); BULLETINS Copies of all Bulletins may be had on application NO. 1— WATERING AND BEDDING FIRST ISSUED IX 1-. In still another stable there are pairs of horses that are used half a day and rested the other half. Encouraged by plenty of bedding, they have formed habits of rest- ing their legs and feet at every possible opportunity. There is an old saying that a good city horse could use up four sets of legs and feet. This means that a large part of his bodily strength and endurance is wasted because lameness and suffering wear out the unfortunate animal long before his time. " His shoulders is all gone sa\in' his legs," was the way one stableman de- scribed the condition of a horse that had worked his body muscles to pieces in trying to ease the strain of his battered legs and feet. As in the case of watering at night, the extra expense of giving a day-time bed to a horse is slight, compared with the great benefit gained from the rest and chance for repairs given the legs. The good that comes out of this is reflected in the condi- tion of the whole body; and all who own horses should see that this chance for needed rest is given their horses whenever they are in the stable, A horse will not lie down on the stable planks unless worn and weary beyond the point where it is right to use any animal. GILBERT TOMPKINS, Agent. Postscript. During the past two years six or eight owners of work-horses, with large stables, have, at our suggestion, given their horses a good bed through the day on Sundays; and in each case they report that the horses take advantage of it, and are the better for it. The horses owned by William Bradley, the famous New York contractor, are remarkable for lasting long, and in Mr. Bradley's stables the horses are always watered at night, after eating their hay, and they are at all times particularly well bedded. 159 BULLETIN No. 4 VACATIONS FOR WORK-HORSES {Especially from the Economic Point of View) By GILBERT TOMPKINS and HENRY C. MERWIN (ABRIDGED) THE EFFECT OF CITY WORK ON HORSES There are thousands of horses hard at work in cities to-day who have begun to run down hill, and will be worthless or nearly so within a year or two ; and yet if these horses could be given a rest and a chance to recuperate, they would in six months' time be worth almost as much as the price originally paid for them. Work-horses in the city, if worked too hard or too fast, or if not properly cared for, or if weakened by age, deteriorate in the following different ways: (1) They become thin. (2) Their feet become sore or diseased. (3) They become grain-burnt or other- wise weakened in digestion. (4) Their muscles become tired and strained. Let us take these up in their order. (1) The first symptom of age in a horse is apt to be a falling-off in flesh. Others become thin from having a bad driver, or from being over-hurried in their work, or from poor feeding. A short rest will often do wonders for a horse in this condition. (2) The Feet. — Unquestionably the best way to make a horse's feet last in the city is to shoe him with rubber or leather pads and plenty of tar and oakum under- neath. This keeps the feet soft, and deadens the concussion. But, with the best of shoeing, horses' feet will give out on the pavements; and nothing will tend to preserve their feet more than an occa- sional let-up during which their shoes can be removed, their feet can get back to the ground, their heels can expand, and fever in the feet may be reduced by the moisture of dew and wet grass, swampy land, etc. (3) The Grain-Burnt Horse. — It must be remembered that a horse at work in the city is not in a normal condition. The constant feeding on dry food, and es- pecially on such stimulating food as oats and corn, produces an unnatural condi- tion of the blood. His whole system becomes feverish and abnormal from years of high graining without any chance to^get back to nature, such as a horse gets by being turned out to grass. Everybody who has seen a horse turned loose in a lot after being confined in a stable must have observed how he first paws up a little turf with his forefoot, and thus gets at the earth underneath. He is more anxious to eat this earth than to eat the grass, and it is certain that the earth is wholesome for the horse. It has a cleansing effect, and is a cure for worms. Nothing, in short, is so good for the digestion of a horse, especially after long years of confinement in a stable and high feeding, than an opportunity to eat grass and earth. (4) Tired Muscles. — Not everybody realizes that a horse, to the eye, may be in perfect condition, and yet his muscles may be so tired and strained that move- ment is positively painful to him, and any movement but a slow one almost impos- sible. Work-horses and hack-horses in this condition are often seen in the street, especially when they begin to grow old. These horses look fairly fat and sleek, but they are tired, their heads droop, they have no life and they lack energy and quickness of movement. Nothing but a rest will restore these horses; but a rest of a few months will do it, and it will increase their value at least one-half. The writers of this Bulletin remember seeing a horse used by a rural free delivery mail-carrier that, being naturally a good feeder, and having all the grain that he could eat, was in fine bodily condition; but he did double the work of an ordinary horse, that is, he travelled twenty-three miles a day for six days in the week, and he was so tired and stiff that it was difficult to urge him from ItiO a walk into a trot. It is from this stiffen- ing of the muscles that a horse really grows old, and if the muscles are restored by an annual vacation the useful life of the horse will be extended to an astonishing degree. A VACATION AT HOME Many stables, especially truck-horse stables, are so situated that a horse can lie given a very good vacation without send- ing him away. That is, there is a yard connected with the stable where the horse can be turned loose in fine weather, with his shoes off. His feed should, of course, be changed to meet the changed condition of his life. His oats should be reduced at least one-half, but always according to the age of the horse, and plenty of bran should be given to him, with carrots, turnips and other vegetables, and, if possible, some grass, now and then, sent in from neigh- boring farms. In this way the horse can derive pretty nearly all the benefits of a vacation in the country without the ex- pense of sending him away, and without separating him from his well-known and beloved companions. A VACATION IN THE COUNTRY It is hardly necessary to say that the greatest care should be taken in selecting the farm where the horse is to be turned out for a rest. Few farmers know how to care for a horse, or will take any trouble to make him comfortable. It must be remembered, of course, that the city horse, being used to high feed, cannot have all his grain taken away from him, especially if he be an old horse, without falling into a worse condition than his former one. Unless he is a young horse in rich pasturage, he must receive some grain every day, and the old horse will need a good deal, per- haps one-half of his usual ration. Another thing to be looked out for is the annoyance from flies and mosquitoes. This is so great, except in farms situated on high ground, that a horse, especially a city horse, cannot be turned out all day or even all night in a pasture or field without losing more than he would gain. In pas- tures of northern New England, where the land lies high and the nights are cool, horses can be turned out day and night; but within thirty or fifty miles of Boston, in midsummer, there is hardly more than an hour or so in the whole twenty-four hours, when a horse can be turned out without being driven almost crazy by flies in the daytime and mosquitoes at night. VACATION BY PIECEMEAL One way of giving a horse a vacation is to increase the number of horses at work, for any firm or concern, so as to permit each horse to lay off one day out of the six working days, or to work half a day only for one or more working days in the week. For example, suppose a given concern has work enough to keep four three-hundred-dollar horses busy. Let them add one horse to the equipment, so that there will be five horses for the work. This would relieve toil-worn legs and feet and over-strained bodies and digestion, would lessen somewhat the amount of grain required for each horse, and would greatly reduce the annual depreciation in the value of each horse. In this way, it is speaking within bounds to say, that the working life of all the horses would be prolonged from an average of six years to an average of ten years. It should be remembered also that a horse in good condition and spirits is far more efficient, and will get over far more ground in a day, than one that is jaded or stiff from overwork; and besides, the good, active horse tends to make the driver a better and more efficient employee. Another consideration is the ad\ertising value of a good horse in good condition and spirits. This increases every year, and in cities where work-horse parades are held it increases very fast. Customers look more and more at the horse used, directly or indirectly, in supplying their wants, and a fine horse gives an appearance of success and up-to-dateness that is worth much more than it costs. 161 APPENDIX TESTIMONY AS TO VACATIONS FOR WORK-HORSES A large bakery concern in Boston, the George G. Fox Co., says: — " Our system is to give each of our horses two weeks at pasture every year, sending them four at a time while the season lasts. We are well pleased with the results." EXPERIENCE OF A LEADING TRUCKMAN (Letter to the President of the Boston Work-Horse Parade Association.) Boston, May 1.5, lOlL Dear Sir: — I write this letter to call your attention to a gray mare, stone blind, which we worked in our business for fourteen years. When she had been worked for about twelve years, she seemed to have a general breakdown, and about that time you and I had a conversation in regard to " reconstructed horses," and you advised me to give this mare two months' lay-off and see what effect it would ha\e. I followed your instructions — we have a large yard — and this mare was turned out every day, and most of the time we hired a boy to take her out and give her some grass. In two months' time she came back perfectly well and seemingly as good as ever. We worked her for about two years from that time, and then we pensioned her and sent her to a farm. We have done this same thing with three others, and one of these was run down so badly that our veterinary surgeon advised me to have him killed. He declared that one of this horse's lungs was nearly gone, and thought he was not worth one dollar. We had used this horse for about eight years, and concluded that we would try giving him a rest. After three months' rest he was one of the hand- somest horses in Boston, and he remained so for about two years, and last year was shown with the " reconstructed horses'" in the Work-Horse Parade. This year he died of blackwater on account of his being so fleshy. Our experience simply shows that your idea of a vacation for horses that are run down is correct, and I hope that many other horse owners will make the same experiment. The results I have no ques- tion in regard to. Very truly yours, WM. D. QUIMBY. THE EXPERIENCE OF AN EXPRESSMAN " This horse went to pieces after eight years of city deli^'ery work, and wasn't worth anything. When he came to us, his legs were swollen, kidneys weak, one lung going, and the other almost gone. He couldn't even go down an easy incline without stopping and struggling for breath. He was given some physic, and then laid off for the summer. We hired boys to lead him (and other horses) in the grass of some open lots while the dew was on it, and let them graze afternoons. We gave this horse the freedom of the barn and the yard, and after a while he began stealing the other horses' feed on his own account. He finally filled out and improved so much that I took him for my own use. Now he feels so well that he won't even walk up hill. He's also a little on the alarm-clock pattern; when he stands in front of the office evenings, you have to tie him a little before six o'clock, or he will go home to supper and the stable of his own notion." OPEN BRIDLES The M. S. P. C. A. offers a prize of $5 for the driver of every six-horse team, and of $4 for the driver of every four- horse team, whose horses wear open bridles in the Parade, provided that the driver agrees to use the open bridles for at least two months.
