OLDEST HORSE IN THE WORLD RETIRES
AFTER A HALF CENTURY OF SERVICE
— Ci/PPSP *hd GBootueo fTQ/rsP*t*& —
Clove*, laid to bp the eldest .icrse j
j in the world, owned by the Rev. Dr. j
Uriah Myers, Catawissa, Pa., re
j tires this spring on a pension con- :
tribnted by horse lovers in various
■ parts of the country.
| The average age of horses is
twenty years, but Clover, a “«m
i bletoman, is fifty-one. In his youth
Clover trotted a mile in 2:22 atd
t paced it in 2:17. He is sixteen
8 nandi high and weighs 1,200
1 pounds.
He has received excellent care.
His wind is good, his limbs clean,
and his coat nas a luster remark
able in an animal so old.
IHia cause, or causes, of Clover’s
Mtgevity is a matter of discussion
among veterinarians. Clover’s ra
tion, twice daily, Is one scoop of
bran, one f middlings, and two of
a mixture of oats, clover and mo
lasses, topped off wit! three ears of
corn.
He has been clipped every spring
since he was a colt, a practice prob
ably of importance in his long life.
Originally a matter of style, mod
em veterinarians agree that spring
clipping contributes greatly to the
health of the horse, as it does to
cows, not onlv in f. at it permits
the quick evaporation of sweat and
promotes cleanliness but because
the added comfort Is soothing to
the horse’s nerves. In any event,
CIbver -perns good for several year
more. He Is still able to step the
road at a amart gait without avi
d -it exertion.
