THE FEEDING OF HOBSES 61 the larger stables in the city the mid-day meal is omitted. But most horsemen hold that some grain should be given at noon, which seems reasonable from our knowledge of the horse's stomach. In any case, the mid- day ration should not be large. The heavy feeding should come at night, after the day's work is over and when the animal has ample time to masticate and di- gest his food. A very good practice is as follows: For the. morning ration, feed one-fourth ^'''-''-^^''^T^Z^^Z^t^. '^^^^ of the daily allowance at least one hour before going to work. It should be in condition to be easily and rapidly consumed, so as to be well out of the way when the animal is led from the stable. After being watered, he is ready for the morning's task. If the work is exhaustive and exacting, he should be fed after five hours of labor. When he comes to the stable at mid-day, he should have a drink of fresh, cool water, taking care that he does not drink too rapidly or gorge himself if very warm. At this time give him another quarter of his daily allowance. No greater service can be ren- dered the horse at this time than to remove the harness so that he can eat his meal in quiet and comfort and gain a few minutes of much-needed rest. If possible, he should have one hour to con- sume his meal. He should be watered again before going to work. He is now ready for the second half of his day's labor. When the horse comes to the stable in the evening, tired and warm, he should, first of all, be allowed a fresh, cool drink, care being taken as before that he does not drink too rapidly. He is now ready for the remainder of his day's allowance. Unharness at once, and when the sweat has dried, give him a thorough brushing. If for some reason the horse is forced to stand idle.
