kicking Horaes.


Many years ago we were run away
with by an old horse, because some
older person would not trust us to har-
ness him to the sleigh, and hitched him
SO close that he hit his heels. Some
horses would have kicked the sleigh to
pieces, but we were able to guide him
for two or three miles without any
greater damage than bruising the
horses legs little Since then we
have seen colt that would allow the
Whlfhetree to hit his heels without any
protest excepting to come down to a
walk and step carefully, while another
horse we owned would stop so short as
to almost throw us over the dasher
whenever strap gave way It was all
a matter of early training, and while
every one should see before starting out
that the harness is in good condition,
those who raise the colts can easily
train them so they will neither run
away nor kick in case Of an accident.
Perhaps some colts inherit the kicking
