Just Horses.

a great many people believe that
the only way to break colt is to
throw him, hobble him or tangle him
with straps or ropes, An Indiana
hoYseman tells how to prepare colt
for his first visit to the blacksmith S !
shop by putting strap around his
neck, passing it along the near side
and between the hind legs, then up
and through the strap around the
neck and back to his hind leg. The
idea is to hold on to this strap while
you lift tie colts ley, and if he kicks
Or struggles, pull on the strap until
he falls down. This is an excellent
way IT, brighten colt half to death,
and rendering him vicious. Every
colt ought to be handled in such
way until, by the time he is year
old, his feet can be picked up easily
and without the aid of straps or
ropes. The best appliances for
breaking colts are the naked hands
a Green Bay, Wis, man writes to
the New York Tribune thata trainer
to whom he had sent beautiful,
weIl-bred, 4 yearo'd tilly, returned
her nervous wreck Or examina-
ton the owner found that her tongue
was cut nearly one-fourth off, and
molars had been broken by the
trainer who bad evidently put rope
around her lower jaw with half
hitch, tied her to post and allowed
her to pull. The hlly Is ruined as
she cannot be driven with any kind
of bit. This incident illustrates
the danger of entrusting valuable
colts to alleged trainers who
generally do more harm than good
Every colt raised on a farm should
ue broken at home under the direct
supervision of the owner.

Mr.. John Knock.

The beginning of New Year usually marks the departure
OF all business and business along lines that to
increase the business put it a basis of larger pay

the mind of the local buyer that pays trade
have to lots of trouble and expense this feature of the
business and have heard sneerng remarks from other
chants of endeavor educate the buying public for surely
is education, of my unbusinesslke efforts it were,
and have had them actually turn customers from their
stores to whom they could make sale and declare that
dill not handle the goods in question"
What things further the merchant said is Of con-
sequence only that and certainly cast the shadow of Mr.
Knocker He gentleman that prevades every business
house and every business certain extentyou

man You must let pass by.
In Rapid City there certain class of women
that make it their business how big pail Of they
throw for the bcerment of the city
themselves These people the relatives Of Mr. Knock 1t
will be remembered that time have done solitary
thing for the beauty Advancement of the city hear the
same people complaining about the matter.
When Mayor Enrick macadimized the
people said it than before full of rocks, etc
and numbeess other that school boy would suggest
In the of the fact that Mayor Emrick spent many
in thoroughly going the subject and knew he right
this Knock family said he spending the cities money rec
lessy. Then again the city in debt and WITHOUT
ANY INCREASE IN TAXES the debt paid and inn

they do not want others to be betered to better themselves
They claimed would be built and advanced
