But few farm horses need shoes.
Wide tires save much horse power.
Axle grease pays 1000 per cent. profit.
Good blankets are profitable IL wisely
used.
A sandy or muddy road doubles the
work.
A rise of one foot In ten doubles the
draft.
Your horse needs water oftener than
you do.
The best drivers talk much to their
animals.
The whip costs more than 1t saves.
Put 1t up.
Binders are useless and injurious.
Cut them off.
No horse should wear a shoe more
than four weeks.
Dark or damp stables cause low spir-
its and various diseases.
Quiet and patient drivers are worth
twice as much as any others.
Yelling and jerking the bit confuse a
horse and advertise blockhead.
The horse is mans invaluable helper,
and should be treated as friend.
You can get no more power from O
horse than you give him in his food.
Your horse intends to please you, but
does not always know your wishes.
If your horses back is sore, use pure
cold water on it freely every time the
saddle is removed.

their produce over roads that are al
most impossible. The tax on each
farmer for road purposes is very small
