Download or read book Buying a Horse written by William Dean Howells and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2019-12-20 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Buying a Horse' is an essay sharing several anecdotes on buying horses by William Dean Howells. He begins by saying that if one has enough money, there seems no reason why one should not go and buy such a horse as he wants. A friend of his proceeded to do so: He was about removing from Charlesbridge, where he had lived many happy years without a horse, farther into the country, where there were charming drives and inconvenient distances, and where a horse would be very desirable, if not quite necessary. But as a horse seemed at first an extravagant if not sinful desire, he began by talking vaguely round, and rather hinting than declaring that he thought somewhat of buying. The professor to whom he first intimated his purpose flung himself from his horse's back to the grassy border of the sidewalk where my friend stood, and said he would give him a few points. "In the first place don't buy a horse that shows much daylight under him, unless you buy a horse-doctor with him; get a short-legged horse; and he ought to be short and thick in the barrel,"—or words to that effect. "Don't get a horse with a narrow forehead: there are horse-fools as well as the other kind, and you want a horse with room for brains. And look out that he's all right forward."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Oldenburg Horse Owing to the ever increasing estimation in which the Oldenburg horse is held in the markets of the world, a large number of enquiries have been received concerning the manner in which it is bred and reared. For this reason, it seems justifiable to write a small book, compiled from original manuscripts and other authentic sources, (at the same time leaving out anything that does not fully bear on the subject in hand), to enable the horse breeders, who live outside our blue and red boundary-posts, to form some idea as to the origin of the race and also the circumstances under which the Oldenburg horse lives; as well as to give the desired information, in condensed form, as to situation, kind of soil and agricultural conditions of the neighbourhood in which this horse is bred. In the first place, the Oldenburg was the original breed that brought the German coach horse into notice abroad, unfortunately sometimes to the detriment of its name and also that of its breeders. Lately, however, it has been possible to alter this adverse opinion, especially since the Oldenburg "Karossier" (literally translated "State Coach Horse") has appeared at all the principal Shows at home and abroad and has gained universal admiration from breeders in general. The principal object of this little book is to extend the knowledge of the value and sphere of usefulness of our beloved "Oldenburgs" throughout the world. Those however, who having read these pages and have become sufficiently interested to wish to visit us and see for themselves, may be assured that they will receive a "hearty welcome", not only from our officials but from all the breeders in the country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Regeneration of the Morgan Horse Of the three types of light horses which American breeders have developed during a century and a quarter, none stands higher in history, judged from the interest and affection which have been devoted to it, none has had a more direct and lasting influence on other types, none, in fact, has been more uniform in type, more prepotent in breeding, or more nearly a fixed breed than the Morgan horse. With an ancestry which must have been of the highest merit, reared on the limestone and granite hills of New England, imbued with remarkable endurance and stamina by a rigorous but invigor ating climate, these little horses seventy-five years ago yielded to none in popularity and held first place in the actual money value placed on individuals and on the service fees of sires. Fifty years ago Morgan stallions were received in the Show rings of Kentucky with enthusiasm. Yet during the last twenty years the name of Morgan has been anathema among the horse breeders of Kentucky, the breed has been rarely seen in the Show ring at state and national fairs, and the live-stock press and many horsemen of authority have declared the Morgan to be an extinct race.

Download or read book The Horse His Breeding Care and Use Classic Reprint written by David Buffum and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-06 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Horse His Breeding, Care and Use During the greater part of my life it has fallen to my lot to have a great deal to do with horses; in breeding them and studying them, in raising them and breaking them to harness, in their care and feeding and in the cure of their vices, when they were so unfortunate as to have them, a large part of my time has been occupied. The knowledge that is gained in the school of experience is generally conceded to be of the most valuable and practical kind, and it has occurred to me that some of the things I have thus been able to learn may be of much value to others. In handling "inquiries and answers" concerning equine matters for a great American periodical, I have often been surprised to see, in the letters that have come to me from all parts of the country and from people of widely varying means and conditions, how similar they are in kind. Almost invariably the inquiries concern such practical matters as how to feed and stable, how to breed so as to produce a good horse for the purpose intended, how to break to harness, and what to do to cure such vices as running away, shying, kicking, or balking.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gleason's Horse Book: The Only Authorized Work by America's King of Horse Tamers; Comprising History, Breeding, Training, Breaking, Buying, Feeding, Grooming, Shoeing, Doctoring, Telling Age, and General Care of the Horse It is certain that at no period in the history of this country has the horse stood so high in general estimation, or by the dis play of his various powers rendered himself an object more worthy of our consideration. As greater attention is now paid to the breeding of horses, for the different purposes of the turf and the road, so should our anxiety for their education increase. The object of this publication is to render as plain and familiar as possible a subject that has for a length of time remained in obscurity. The want of a work advancing practical facts and illustrations has long been severely felt and acknowledged.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Horse in America: A Practical Treatise on the Various Types Common in the United States, With Something of Their History and Varying Characteristics There have been so many books written about horses that in offering a new one I feel that an ex planation, if not an apology, is due. And I am embarrassed as to how to frame the explanation without seeming to reflect on the books previous ly given to the public. Nothing could be further from my desire. Most of these previous books have been devoted to special kinds or types of horses without any effort to cover avery broad field. Some others have been frankly partizan with the avowed purpose of proving that this type or that was the only one that was worth serious con sideration. All these are interesting, but valuable chiefly to the careful student bent on going into the subject of horse breeding and horse training in all of its branches. To do this an ordinary reader.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heavy Horses: Breeds and Management The task of attempting to give a short history of the rise and progress of the Shire horse is by no means an easy one. It is true that a considerable amount of evidence exists to show that in days long before the Christian era the breed of horses in these islands was considered to be, when viewed from a Roman standpoint, unusually large; but it should be remembered that size is always more or less comparative, and as we have no plates or drawings to guide us when speaking of the very early horses, we can only surmise that they were really of very considerable bulk, because their descendants were decidedly large, and bore a very close resemblance to the Shire horse of the present day. It must, however, be recollected that the horse of a certain period is naturally moulded so as to be suitable to the requirements of that time; and the Great Britain of two thousand years ago was, of course, a vastly different country from the Great Britain as we now find it. The nation then was troubled and disturbed, and the majority of the inhabitants may be described as warriors.
