A WAR HORSES EDUCATION

Horses destined for cavalry use
have to be carefully and thoroughly
trained for the duties they perform.
AS it is easily possible for ignorant,
careless trainers to utterly ruin an
animal for war purposes at this
period in his career, considerable
thought and care are given his edu-
cation. The best plan, it has been
found, is to make his lessons simple
and have them progress steadily but
not too rapidly.
AT first he is walked about, COM
paratively free from restraint, in or
der that he may grow accustomed to
the sights and sounds of his new en-
vironment. Thus he gradually over
comes his natural fears. At length a
cavalryman gets on his back and by
progressive lessons gets him used to
having a man mount rapidly and at
times roughly.
The next thing to be learned is to
kneel with a man on his back, also to
lie down on his side and lie still on
the ground, serving as a shelter for
the cavalryman squatting behind him
and shooting at the enemy. He must
also learn to come to a sudden stop
from a gallop and to stand quietly
while his rider takes aim.

(Our Dumb Animals. }

Everybody has heard about the
bull-!o and how numerous they were
o. the plains years ago, but today
there are not many men left who
know from personal observation how
these ungainly wild cattle lived.
Fifty years ago they migrated with
the seasons up and down the country
from Alberta to Mexico, west OF the
Missouri river almost to the Pacific
Coast, their principal range however
being just east OF the Rocky Noun
tains and eastward to about middle
Nebraska. Once they ranged clear
east to New York State at least. but
that was before the white man came.
Sixty years ago they ranged the
plains in countless thousands and
practically ceased to exist in 1885,
except in Yellowstone Park and one
or two other isolated spots where a
few head still survive as Is the case
on the Flathead River, where some of
the Allard herd got away and into the
mountains while enroute to Canada
several years ago. In the old days
the herds drifted north in the spring
and south in the fall, following the
feed which grew with the seasons.
All the plains Indians depended on
the buffalo for meat, clothes, teepee
coverings and about all else that they
needed for every day life Plenty
OF buffalo in the country meant hap
piness and plenty in the Indian comp,
while lack of buffalo in the country
meant starvation for the Indian ex-
cept for what little meat he could
get by hunting deer, elk and other
such animals. Antelope usually mi
grated about the same time and along
with the buffalo herds, so the Indian
could not usually get antelope when
he couldn't get buffalo.
One day the plains would be black
with feeding thousands of big hump
backed animals; the next day they
might all begin to move to the south
and they would then flow by a given
point in steady, living river of huge
cattle; the next day it might be i'm
possible to find single animal with
in a days ride. They came and
went, drifting over the land as the
feed and water conditions dictated |
In sumner they lived on the high,
grassy plains of Montana. Saskatche-
wan, Alberta and the North, thou !
sands and thousands of them. In the
winter they drifted to the panhandle
Of Texas, Mexico and the arid South
west.
Nowhere in the world has there
ever existed so far as mna's knowl-
edge runs, such an immense herd of

Buffalo Ways in Buffalo DAYS

magnificent food animals-yet wa.

beef by killing the herds for their
skins. Think of III And buffalo
leather was about the poorest excuse
for leather that ever was known. an
1t was porous as a sponge, though Il
would wear, IL rightly tanned. like
alligator hide.
The buffalo was a very method
ical animal If left undisturbed. Slow
moving, stupid in a way, he asked
nothing Of life except that he he given
plenty Of grass, water and sunshine.
Given these he would feed, then work
his slow way by the easiest grade to

was water to a buffalo,) drink, rest,
feed, drink and rest in never ending
cycles from the day he was born to
the day some Indian gathered him
in and dried his flesh in the summer
sun to eat when winter came.
Indians killed buffalo by the thou
sands at time by running them over
cliffs (called "piskun" by the Black
feet) but they never wasted any meat
or hides. These big killings by tho
Indians were simply harvests of meat
and skins which they took when they
could from migrating herds and cur
ed to last until such time as the herds
should drift back-but the Indian
never wasted or killed nedlessly.
The feeding habits of buffalo re-
suited in their moving over the same
ground many times, therefore they
made deep trails from water to feed
ing-grounds, and these trails wera
always in the shape of branching
tree with the roots to water and the
tops or limbs" stretching out on tho
ridges and feeding grounds.
BY instinct the big animals follow
ed low easy grade from the highest
point of the feeding grounds to water,
and this grade was always maintain
ed, so buffalo trails always looked az

civil engineer-there was never any
abrupt rise or fall in any trail and
they were always good roads to fol-
low. Indeed the Union Pacific Rail-
road is practically built on top of a
buffalo trail from Omaha to Ogden
and somewhat beyond.
Wolves always hung about the
herds ready to pull down sick or dis
abled animals. A wounded buffalo
always went to water to die il he
could, so every water hole was sur
rounded with bleached bones. They
persisted by thousands sometimes in
crossing high or icy streams, but they
came and went like the tides until
the white man came and killed them
nedlessly as he does everything.
