Mr. Robert Bonner said to an viewer recently: “I donot think Mr. | Bergh understands what he is talking about when he states that clipping is a} cruel and seaseless practice—the device | of lszy grooms, There is not a. horse-|

lives of many valuable horses saved by timely « iipping. ’ Clipping is anneces sary to a horse with a fine light coat, if| he has heen kept to work all and autumn and has been well Ii, however, he has been allowed to run on grass a few weeks and not felt theeurty-comb he needs clip | has become Some horses have such tine light coats that they never need clipping.

“I know very little about it. It was

i¢that [I can’t venture an opinion. | You may rest assured of one thing | however, and it is this: No man own-| ing a valuable horse is going to risk|

Do you think I would have any one of! these horses clipped if I was not per-| fectly sure that clipping was good for| him? It is a question of money to a | mao.’

“You have noticed, doubtless,’ said | the reporter, “that Mr. Bergh declares | that speeding horses is cruel and in-!

human. He denies that horses enter into the spirit of the sport.” ‘All bosh. A horse, if he is not a

a jazy beast, takes much interest in his own performances. If you are driving; a three minute horse and a 2.40 ant- mal comes up along-side to pass you, | you will notice your horse prick up his|
