How to Quiet Horse when being
Cleaned.


An English Journal, Ldnd-and- Water,
tells us how, thus
First cohtrive so that the horse shall
not hurt you, then teach him that you are
not,going to hurt him. 1t is almost always
thin-skinned horses that become savage
while being cleaned. Make out of four
inches of spade handle or rolling-pin, a
bit so large that the horse cannot close his
mouth; common brass rings screwed into
each end of the wooden bit will enable
you to fasten it to the head-stall. This
alone will generally make horse quiet,
1t is Rarey's plan, and seems to occupy the
horses attention. But if he is very restive,
put on knee caps, strap up one leg, and
clean him on deep litter, SO that If he falls
he may not hurt himself. Then take a
sponge and wash him all over with or with
out soap, according to his condition; dry
him with coarse cloth after washing a
hard brush is necessary.
If he will stand it, use the usual hay
wisp; but if he is very tender-slinned be
| content with the cloth and very soft
| brush, which will be quito enough for a
horse with fine silky coat. Washing in
| hunting stables is made great ceremony,
performed by two grooms with hot water
and soap, while a boy stands ready to
clothe each part when finished, but am
convinced that all horses when in condi
ton may be safely washed in cold water
Messrs. Sangers, the circus proprietors
have a stud of eighty horses, including
several thorOughbreds; for some of these
they have refused offers in three figures
Two purchased at General Angerstein''
sale cost each, unbroken, over 100 guineas
These horses are all washed with cole
water twice day, frequently after s
journey of twenty miles, and they are
more healthy than any stud l ever saw
Yet as they never stop more than two
days at any place for nine months of the
year, they are always at work. Since
seeing this example have treated my OWL
horses in the same way, even after driving
fifteen miles at best pace, and with mos
satisfactory results. 1t must be re
mcmbered the circulation and power o
reaction in horse is greater than in
man.

The frame should he moderately aired by

the plants are soft wooded, such as Zonale
