HORSES ACT THROUGH
INSTINCT And HARl!
THEIR FUTURE VALUE DEPENDS
ON THE WAY THE COLT
is BROKEN
Uniformity Of Conduct Is One Of the
Chief Characteristics Of the
Horse-Habits Formed
Early.

The future value and usefulness OF
the horse depends very largely on the
way the colt is broken, according to
Farmers Bulletin 667, issued by the
United States Department Of Agricul.
ture BY a broken colt is meant one
that is safe to handle in the stable or
on the road and that will promptly
obey the orders OF the driver or rider.
Memory and habit are the two main
factors with which we have to deal in
training horses A horse acts through
instinct and habit. and one of its
greatest characteristics is uniformity
of conduct What horse is once
trained to do he will nearly always
do under like conditions.
The first thing in training a horse
is to get his attention. The second is
to make him understand what is want
ed. The education of the horse is
based on reward and punishment. The
reward, a pat on the neck, etc., should
Immediately follow the act of obedi-
ence. The punishment, to be effective,
must Immediately follow the act OF
disobedience.
Few horses are inherently vicious.
Many horses are made vicious and I'M
reliable by the carelessness or unneces-
sary brutality of their trainers. II q
horse kicks because the harness hurts
him. or SHES at something of which
he is afraid, punishment is not justifi
able. If, however, after being stopped
horse starts before receiving the
command to do so, he should be pun
ished. Horses are naturally obedient
and when thoroughly trained theil
conduct is uniformly good.
"A horse should be trained SO tina
he thinks there is no limit to his powe
to do the things required Of him, ant
believe that he has no power to d
that which is against the wishes of hi
. driver. Above all, never ask of

LABOR HEAD SAYS BOMB
OUTRAGES RESULT u. S.
IMMIGRATION POLICY

Washington. June 3.-Secretary
Morrison Of the American Fedora
ton of Labor in a statement on the
bomb outrages today declared the
country was reaping the result of its
immigration policy.
1.-The attempted destruction of life
and property should cause calm re-
Election rather than Mysteries on the
part Of every American" he said
II can understand why the EiAilists
Of Russian used bombs. but this
method can have no place in Ameri-
can institutions. And when it used
it is our patriotic duty to inquire
why.
For years the trade union move
ment has urged the restriction of i'm
migration, but the workeds were op-
posed by steamship companies. the
steel trust and other employers OF
labor who stimulated immigration
at the rate of 10000 persons year
Many of those immigrants were herd
ed in large cities or other Industrial
centerS. They were encouraged to
use their own language and to per-
petuate traditions Of their mother
country. At election tune. in in
Vulnerable instances. they were vot-
ed en- bloc. and if they would Or
ganize a trade union or suspend work
to stop exploitation they were en-
joined. dubbed and jailed. This is
an old story in West Virginia, COL
orado. Pennsylvania and elsewhere.
What can Americanism mean to
those people? They do not even un-
derstand our language. To them
Americanism means petty boss and
low wages. They know nothing Of
our theory Of government. This
country is now reaping the result of
its immigration policy-or lack If
policy-during all these years.
Bomb throwing is always chal-
lenge to organized society. and
should be met in that spirit. But the
question must he traced back to its
root and treated accordingly. Ameri-
canism must be more than n shib-
boleth. 1t must mean education. OPP
portunity and social justice for all.
We must vitalize our declarations
and our beliefs that injustice has no
place on American soil. On this soil.
bomb throwing will wither and die. "
