Horse Sense, Being the Reflections of a Wise Horse

Horse Sense, Being the Reflections of a Wise Horse
"Horse Sense, Being the Reflections of a Wise but Neglected Horse on Its Owner."

--------

A leaflet wherein a "wise but neglected horse" (Mr. Ed?) explains why his owner should purchase a Stewart No. 1 Clipping Machine in order to clip off the long winter coat of hair that leaves him wet and sweaty now that the spring field work season has arrived:

"You know, he isn't a bad boss, but he hasn't thought much about it. He feeds us enough and gives us lots of good water to drink. He also spends a lot of time cleaning us, and when he is doing it I often think how much of that work he could save if he would only clip us; and how much better we would be. Well, here's hoping he will get a Stewart No. 1 Clipping Machine this season."
