HOWBERIty HORSEMEN After all homework, new and old business was covered, we started our meeting at Glen McMichael's farm. The first thing on our agenda was five rules about horse nutrition. Next, we learned how to formulate a horse's ration in 10 steps. For homework, we had to try our hand at this on our own horses. We were taught six feeding practices. Then we learned how to compare commercial feeds. After our meeting we had our pool party. Thanks so much to the McMichaels for their pool and porch for our meeting and our fun! — Wayne Fischer.
