rection of his mind, give him new sub
iect to think of, nine times out OF ten you
will have no further trouble in starting him.
As simple.a trick as little pepper, aloes,
or the like. thrown back on his tongue,
will often succeed by turning attention to
the taste in his mouth. A simple remedy
is to take a couple of turns of common
wrapping-twiue, such as grocers use.

tight enough for the horse to feel, and tie

a short distance you can get out, remove
