A Wrmkk About the Age of
A short time ago wa meat a tsmhimin
from Illinois, who gave as a piece iafor-
matlon in regard to ascertaining tbo age
of a horse, after he or she has passed
the ninth year, which was new to ns. and
will be, we are tare, to most off our road
en. It is this : After the horse is nine
yean old, a wrinkle comes on the evelid
at the upper corner of the lower lid, and
every rear thereafter he be has one well
defined wrinkle for each wear over nine.
If for instance, a horse "fiat throe wrin
kles, he it twelve j four, he Is thirteen.
Add the number of wrinkles to nine, and
you will always get it. So says the gen
tleman : and he is confident it will never
fail. As a good many people have hors
es over nine, it easily tried. If trie, tbe
