THE PRACTICAL COUNTRY GENTLEMAN 



driven properly with a light hand, will always 

 respond to the slightest touch. The bits that 

 are the most humane and comfortable are the 

 straight-bar, and the leather-covered. Make it 

 a rule to have a dentist look over your horses' 

 mouths once a year, and you will save not only 

 suffering on the part of your animals, but feed 

 and strength as well.
