NEW AND LATEST IMPROVEMENTS. 



No doubt jou are well aware tliat my book is 

 copy -righted, also stereotyped ; and since the date 

 of this edition, I have made some valuable improve-

 improvements, than to strike out the old and inter- 

 line the new. By so doing, you can have a thorough 

 knowledore as well as the benefit of both. 



My First is for Ila,lter-]lrea.king-«, 



After your colt is made to follow by the use of 

 the whip, the next move is to satisfy him beyond a 

 doubt, that you can control his head. The attach-

 and two feet in length ; on one end of this strap 

 make fast one inch and a half iron ring ; the other 

 end punch your holes ready for passing through a 

 buckle that I shall soon prepare. Now, in the same 

 ring, (attached to end of said strap,) make fast a 

 short inch strap, of sufficient length to make fast a 

 buckle with loop. Now, understand me ; this strap, 

 two feet in length, is passed around the horse's neck 

 to the off side, brought over to the nigh, passed 

 through the buckle and made fast around his neck 

 about one foot back from his ears with inch and a 

 half ring hanging on the under side of his neck
