A shying horse is dangerous and
very unsafe to ride after, and many
men who own them are more apt to
make them worse than better. A
shying horse should never be hit
with whip when he SHES, as that has
a tendency to make the horse think
the object Is hurting him, or that II
anything strange appears tn him that
he is going to get the whip, and
therefore jumps and runs. Teach
your horses that you will ask them
TO 60 nowhere to get hurt, and then
when you bid them go by an obstruc-
ton they will have confidence in yOn
and do as you bid them. If you dom
think so try kind means and see II it
isn't better than the whip.
The stock show was held az usual
last Monday, the procession forming
ut the HERALD Office corner, march
ing dp sixth street. down Seventh
and around the Public Square. Some
very high bred, rich looking hOrsee
were in the line, and others were
there that should have been in the
pillow or wagon. After the march
was finished, some undertook to dc
some speeding, but this was inter
ferred with by the police authorities.
who think it IL dangerous to the peo-
pie and say they will not tolerate it
any more. We do not give the list in
| full ~ we have heretofore done, be-.
cause our experience teaches us that
the average reader doe not care fo'
it, and it does not pay for the trouble,
time and space.
Truly wonderful is the memory OF
a horse. Some years ago II. &
Jewett took several broodmares from
his Kansas farm to JeweLtvllle, n,
Y, including Honda; dam of Monita,
2:2614, and Bessie Gilpin, dam Of
Fav0ra, 2:l919. At the western ranch
these mares had boon cOmpan-
ion in Jennie West, dam of Henricr,
2:l734 In rowing over the great
prairie pasture the trio were always
together, like sisters. A few weeks
ago when Mr.. Jewett reshipped
Honda and Bessie back to Kansas,
they were turned out into paddock
where Jennie West was Standing.
Almost simultaneously all three be-
gan to Whitney. They ran up to
each other actually delighted. For
some time they "nOsed" each other
around, and then paired off in trio
fashion as in years gone by. Mr..
Jewett says that is common occur
renee among horses which have beer
Iarted after long intimacy. Another
instance OF this kind happened in
Buffalo short time ago Way back
in the eighties, s. M. Radcliffe sold
his mare, Susie TWitcheil, for breed
ing purposes. She had been in tn,
habit of sticking her nose into hiI
pocket after sugar "a Mr.. Ratclitf,
mad Taught her. He went to zee hei
after q long absence. She was stand
ing way out in the pasture hundred
yards or more away. At the sounf
Of his voice, "COme, Susie" sh'
pricke up her ears and started a
break meek speed for him, and DegaI
to hunt for sugar Immediately
Then she would hold up her head fo
: him to rub her nose. 1t was an atfec
tiOnate scene to witness her love TO
; her old master.
