Training c,iss.

The proper time to commence train
ling colts is while they are quite young,
as It 10 then IN easy task to handle
them. Colts that run till they are
three Or four years old ere frequently
stubborn and hard to manage. Ny
plan is to halter break them while they
yet run with the mare, and get them
|so that can lead them wherever I
wish. When thus trained they can b.
broken to the harness with compars-
lively little trouble. I nsxt bride
them and get them accustomed to the
bit, and they soon become bride. wise.
At year old l harness and drive
them about. and when two years old I
put them in wagon and drive them
on the road. When they have become
somewhat handy in driving l give
them . small load, and afterwards 10.
crease it. If the load is too great be.
fore they are accustomed to drawing.
they will fly back and refuse to draw.
The principal cause Of baulky horses
may very likely Be the custom Of load
ing them too heavily while breaking.
An instance which came under nv ob.
servation last winter will illustrate thin
