The article describes experiments in London showing how load weight affects a draft horse’s pulling power. It notes that removing 200 pounds from a 2000 pound load lets the horse haul with ordinary effort, while shifting weight alters the angle of draft and efficiency. It cites Mr Briggs on automatic weight adjustment and stresses gentler reintroduction of work after winter rest.
