 nil liave liad and seen this woi'k done and watclied the 

 result, and many others in Auburn city. This is 

 where this 2:reat center of science is located of D. M. 

 Osborn & Co.; this is where tlie great center of tliis 

 horse science is now well established, and this is to be 

 one of the great centers; this, too, must, like all other 

 businesses, in order to be successful, be systematized 

 and introduced on the principles of science. I could 

 give you scores of names to back this work up — some 

 are many miles- away, and some hundreds, where 

 I have worked and my brothers in different places on 

 the horse. That is not necessary, as Auburn city is 

 to be the center. I will give you a few men's names 

 that will be worth more than a score of some, and 

 here they are. 



After vou read this work carefullv through, and 

 look at your horse, you can easily see how this all is. I 

 could get hundreds of names to put in this work, if it 

 was the biggest humbug that was ever written, by ask- 

 ing them. To prove this work to be a valuable one, 

 test it ; then you will know ; you always will be in the 

 dark unless you do. The trouble is and always has 

 been that nearly all have learned this science out 

 of selfish motives ; they would keep it all to them- 

 selves in order to make money fast out of it. This is 

 not my intention. I want all to know how this work 

 is done. I will show and teach all mankind. If I 

 would not be willing to do this, this book is wrongly 

 named. This book is the teacher. I do not know as 

 I can work on the horse much more. My health is 

 failing fast; persecution and abuse have had something
