78 ' THE HORSE EDUCATOR. 



TO CUBE A CBIBBEE 



^UT a strip of slieep skin with long wool, 

 about eight inches wide and long enough 

 to cover the front edge of the manger, and tie 

 him in the stall, so he cannot crib anywhere, 

 except on the sheepskin. If this does not cure 

 him, sprinkle on a httle cayenne i^epper. Another 

 remedy is to take a wooden roller, long enough 

 to reach across the stall, let the horse eat his hay 

 and grain from the bottom of the manger, when 

 he attempts k> crib he must inevitably work on 

 the roller which when he places his teeth to crib 

 the roller turns, his lips come in contact with the 

 roller, and he is punished at every attempt, and 

 after a few trials becomes satisfied and will not 

 again attempt to crib.
