However, these interesting topics for chapters convey but a small idea of the 

 interesting things they cover. The chapter on Packing Horses beguiles us — 

 How to make a pack horse of your own, How to make an aparejo. How to 

 make a China, How to make a latigo. How to throw a diamond hitch. 

 How to throw a squaw hitch, How to hitch a horse in open land without 

 post, tree or stick or stone. Use of hobbles and how to make them. How the 

 travois is made and used, Buffalo Bill and General Miles, How to throw down 

 a^saddle, How to throw a saddle on a horse. How to mount a horse. How to 

 know a western horse. The pictures are still more beguiling — a barrel made 

 into an expedient steed upon which packs can be laid and cinched with im- 

 punity until the learner is sure enough of his method to try it on a "sure 

 enough" horse. Each one of the 377 illustrations by the author teUs how 

 something should be done. In fact the pages printed or pictured are packed 

 full of information for the boy, information that is dynamic because it makes 

 the boy want to start instantly to transmute the book into experience.
