 ' in great quantities, grow frequently wHfty. 



Now I would have > ou have two made, the one for 

 the Oats^ the other for your ^lit Beans, and both let 

 into your Range ofPrejJes', the Partitions may ea- 

 (ily be made over head, to feparate your Oats from 

 yom Beans. Or if you like not this way, you may 

 convert it into an Hay-loft., or Chambers for your 

 (jrcowj, which you fancy ; but whatever you make 

 choice of, let the Floor overhead be /«7W, that no 

 Dnfi from above fall upon your H&rjes. Bnt if you 

 have the convenience ofuRickcyarii, (b that you keep 

 your Hay abroad, it is the opinion of fome knowing 

 Horfeweny that to tack^it out of the Rick^ by little and 

 little, as you have occafion to ufe it, makes it fpend 

 much better than it would otherwife do out of the 

 Hay-Tallet. 



As to the reft of its Perquifites, a Diwg.yard., a 

 P«wp,or a Cowi^«/f,are neceliary ^ and if you can have 

 that convenience, fome Pond or running River near 

 hand. But be fure, never let the Front ot your Stahle 

 be without Litter., that by frequent practice your 

 Horfe may learn to empty his Bladder v/heu he is come 

 from Jiring^ which will be both healthful for your 

 Horfe^^ndproptablefor your Land
