C Your horses and mules are somewhat under size. This defect comes from breeding in and in. The introduction Of some new blood would remedy this and bring up the standard to quite a degree of perfection for notwithstanding the smallness of the horse he is very strong and Spirited and capable of great feats of endurance, thus exhibiting qualities admirable to build on. Your cattle, too, sufler from the same cause. These, however, are of better grade than the average Western cattle, and far more beau tiful in form. The vast expanse of splendid grass-lands over which I traveled and upon which I Saw no herds, depressed me. The valleys, with their perpetual verdure, wide-spreading trees, and crystal streams Should have been studded with herds of fat cattle, and the hillsides with flocks of Sheep and long-haired goats. The abundance and fine quality Of native grasses and the number and ample size of the streams of sweet, pure water render the country remarkably well suited to grazing purposes. A mistaken idea concerning the healthfulness of all of the Central American countries exists among a large class of my countrymen. Where the climate is SO uniform (never excess ively hot), where' drainage is so perfect, and where pure water so abundant, disease cannot prevail. Nowhere have I seen healthier people.
