8o HOW TO CHOOSE A HORSE 



Exmoor Ponies. 



These ponies are from 1 1 to 13^ hands 

 (or thereabout) in height, and generally bay, 

 chestnut, dun, or black in colour, and have 

 short muscular bodies, good limbs, and, as a 

 rule, very good feet. 



Within recent years the breed has been 

 very much improved, and numerous high- 

 class studs exist. It is a hardy variety of 

 pony, and when trained, useful for both 

 saddle and harness purposes. 



To obtain good specimens, it is desirable 

 to advertise one's wants in one of the local 

 papers of the district from which these ponies 

 come. 



Dartmoor and New Forest ponies can 

 best be obtained in the same manner.
