After you have him so that he will not kick 

 at the tin pans with either leg, push the lines 

 through the tug strap, step back of the horse with 

 lines in hand and the tinware still hanging on the 

 crupper and say "Got up!" Drive him and see it 

 he will kick. If he does, give him a sudden jerk 

 with one line and tell him to stop it, or speak to 

 your horse the same as you did when you were 

 working beside bim with the whip, before you 

 started to drive him. You may also give him a 

 very sharp crack with the whip at the same timu 

 you jerk on the lines. 



After you have gained your point and you 

 find there is no more kicking for the time being, 

 put your horse back into the stable, take the har- 

 ness off and allow him to remain there for about 

 two hours. Then repeat the lesson. Give your 

 horse about three lessons a day for about three or 

 four days. 



When you get readj- to harness him to a rig, 

 harness him to a long shafted cart or in some kind 

 of a rig that he cannot damage by kicking. When 

 he makes any attempt to kick, remember to give 

 him that sudden jerk with the line, and talk to 

 him very firmly, the same as you did when work- 

 ing beside him. Don't fail to keep his head checked 

 up, as this is one of the best kicking straps you 

 have. When you have your horse going along 

 smoothly, place the end of your whip down be- 

 tween his hind legs and test him to see if he will 

 kick. If he shows any signs of kicking, remember 

 to jerk the lines, and speak firmly to him. Make 

 him understand that his hind legs are not made to 

 kick with. If you will carry out my instructions, 

 1 will guarantee that you will not fail to accomp- 

 lish your point. If at first you don't succeed, try, 

 try again. Remember this and you are bound to 

 succeed.
