£SP* This Work, with " Facts for Horse Owners" from which 

 the part on the horse is taken, is protected by three separate 

 Copyrights, covering, first, its Title; second, its Literary Composi- 

 tion; and, third, its Engravings, "fdtl 



There are also three patents covering important methods of 

 subjection and treatment given in this book. First, a simple means 

 of subjection by which any horse, however vicious, balky, or un- 

 manageable, can be put in harness, subdued, and driven gently with- 

 out danger of accident. Second, a method by which headstrong, 

 lunging, runaway horses can be controlled directly, and so subdued 

 .by the pressure of the reins upon the nerve centers, that he will 

 soon submit to the ordinary restraint of the bit. Third, a method 

 of preventing and curing contraction and quarter-crack — an ab- 

 solute cure for quarter-cracky with freedom to drive on any road 

 as desired, without causing the hoof to split back as it grows — 

 guaranteed a means of perfect cure. Fourth (patent pending), a 

 method by which most horses pulling or lugging on the bit, will 

 drive safely and easily to a pleasant and easy restraint of the reins. 



JWT" Purchasers of this Work or " Facts for Horse Owners " 

 from the author or his agents, will be entitled to the use of either 

 or all of these patents (for personal use only), without extra 

 charge; all others using them will be subject to legal proceed- 

 ings. "&* (T)
