What reading level is Road Track And Stable Chapters About Horses And Their Treatment book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
quenee is that the Percheron family has been cor- rupted on its native soil, Flemish and other inferior blood being introduced, in order to get the immense size wanted for the foreign, and particularly for the American market. Many of the Percherons win- ning prizes at our horse shows are of this type, — huge, overgrown, lethargic creatures, ungainly, slow, and wanting in endurance. The smaller horses of both the Clydesdale and Percheron breeds, the lat- ter especially, are almost invariably th...e better.
M. du Hays gives the height of the true Percheron stallion as ranging from 14f to 16 hands, but the height of Percheron or so-called Percheron stallions imported to this country varies from 16J^ to 17 hands.
In weight they vary from 1,400 to 2,200 pounds ; the average being about 1,700. The mares average about 1,650 pounds in weight, and range from 15 to 16f hands in height. The size and weight of the Clydesdale importations are about the same, whereas, if the best and purest of both breeds were imported, the Percherons would be the smaller.
