THE MANAGEMENT OF HOUNDS 



Most horses, up to one hundred and seventy-five 

 pounds, will carry two hundred pounds perfectly 

 well for an hour or two, and bulk in the quad- 

 ruped by no means insures safety to the biped. 

 Action is what carries weight level, true, effort- 

 less, galloping action and little horses are often 

 as competent for the undertaking as the big, 

 robust brutes generally selected. A tall horse 

 makes fences look smaller ; he has no other 

 merit of any kind. 



This, then, is the schedule for the year, the 

 club furnishing kennel room and stall room free :
