Logger. — Loggers are a complement to drafters except 

 for smoothness, quality, and finish. Such animals are 

 often used for rough, heavy work where general appearance, 

 such as quality and finish, are not required. Loggers may 

 be blemished without detracting seriously from their value, 

 as they are used chiefiy in lumber camps or other work where 

 showy appearance is not an important attribute.
