EDUCATING YOUNG HORSES.

Rev. W. II. II. Murray gives in the
Golden Rule the following directions for
educating, or as it used to be called,
breaking in young horses:
II you have IA colt to teach, and have the
habit of speaking sharply and loudly, cor
rect yourself at once. Colts are timid,
high-spirited things, if they are worth
ANYTHING; and he who manages them
should be of quiet habits. and have low,
pleasant-toned voice. The trainer that
wells, stands in the same category AS the
driver in the public race who screams snd
whoops like COmanche Indian when COM
ing in on the home stretch the one should
be banshed from the track, and the other
out OF the gentleman stables. Our
method of educating Il colt to the harness
and wagon is to educate him singly, by
himself: and this education should begin
very early. When the colt is twelve or
fourteen months old begin to put the har-
ness on him. In few weeks he is az
customed to it and ready for the shafts.
But in doing this do not be in hurry.
Give the youngster time to get thorough
ly acquainted with every strap and buckle,
as it We're. Let him see everything ard
smell everything. The senses of sight,
smell and touch are very great avenues of
knowledge to the horse, especially the last
two. The eye and ear give the alarm.
These two organs stand rs it were, on
picket for the animals safety. But if your
horse is frightened at anything, let him
smell and touch it, and he will fear no
longer. If your colt is afraid of the har
ness as it comes rustling out of the har-
ness room, let him touch it with his nose,
let him smell it "A few times and he will
soon understand that it will not hurt him.
If he is inclined to kick and jump, if the
breeching band or any strap hits his hams
or legs, by gently rubbing them against
the sensitive places, he will soon become
indifferent to them. BY the time tie colt
is two years of age, or even less, he should
be educated to go between the shafts,
either forward or backward, and become
thoroughly familiar with the harness and
vehicle, and ordinary road service

VIII II Pay I

That railroad article last week occa-
stoned some comment, and so far as it
has come to our ears, the usual re-
ply to the question asked at the head
of this article is,-it will.
An eastern outlet has been the wish
of the people of our county for years,
and while it has generally been under
stood that FIT. Scott was the most feas-
ible point to go in with, at the same
time any other point would suit as
well. All things being equal Fit. Scott
would be first aided. The first point
TO he settled upon is, whether our peo-
pie are prepared to aid an honest at
tempt to obtain a railroad from any
direction. This, we think, can be an
swered in the affirmative. And to-
day, we believe that givena squarfbus-
mess proposition, the people of lola,
Usage, Elm, Marmaton, ElsmOre or
Salem township, will work for road
running from the northeastern, east
ern OF southeastern line of the county
to lola, and on from any practicable
point. In short, our people want an
east and west road-and we are going
to have it.
If the extension Of the Chicago &
Alton to TT. Scott can be secured, then
we want TO work for it TO come west.
The actual condition of our county de-
mands it, and no one will be quicker
to recognize this fact than the wide
awake management of that road.
