A proof of this is seen in the case of the John 

 Vaughn mare. She is a remarkably fine trotter but had 

 been spoiled in the breaking and handling so that she

The exhibition of Prof. Beer}', which he calls a 

 school, is attracting a good deal of attention and also 

 doing a great deal of good here by educating the mem- 

 bers of the class up to the handling of horses by ration-

 if he does it and will be corrected if he does not. 



When you start out to make him do anything, make 

 him do it thoroughly before you quit.
