Abstract
REFERRING to Mr. W. B. Tegetmeier's letter in NATURE, vol. xvi. p. 163, I can say that I once had a pony born and bred on Dartmoor, which had never seen oats until it came into my father's stable in the fourth year of its age, and it refused them. We induced it to eat oats by mixing them with hay and gradually reducing the quantity of hay until the oats predominated.
