above the hock joint. When the horse kicks the leader must ex 

 pand, the result is the elastic prevents it from doing so, and thi 

 horse's habit of kicking in the stall will soon be broken up. Never 

 use a strap or rope ; if you do it will stop the circulation. In ail 

 cases use the elastic. 



Question. What do you think of whirling a horse by his tail f 



Answer, If you have a horse bad to harness, or will not stand to be 

 bridled or saddled, take the halter strap in your left hand, take hold 

 of the horse's tail with your right hand, and whirl him around 

 eight or ten times. He will become dizzy, and the moment you let 

 go of him he will stagger or fall. Then say " whoa ; " pick up your 

 saddle, harness or bridle, or whatever you want to put on him, and 

 you will find that he will stand perfectly quiet. It is a quick and 

 effective method. 



Never tie your horse's head and tail together, but follow tho »boT« 

 instructions.
