It is only twelve feet wide; if copied, the gangway should bo three feet broader. In this cut, the manger is shown too low nd the rack too high. Declivity of the Stall.?The ordinary mode of draining the stall is to make it slope from the head to a gutter, about ten feet from the manger. The inclination varies from two tc inches on the ten feet This hus been objected to, bulas it appears to me, without any good reason. It is said that the flexor muscles and back sinews are put upon the stretch, to such a degree that they are injured. It is not easy to believe this. As far as I have been able to ascertain, no one has ever seen a horse lamed in this way. The matter might be decided by experiment. By making a horse stand for a ...
