BIG FACTORS IN
TRAINING COLTS
Future Value and Usefulness De-
pend Greatly on Manage
ment While Young.
FIRST GET HIS attention
Education Of Horse ls Based on Re-
ward and Punishment-Many Ami
mails Made Vicious and Unreii-
able by Careiessness.

The breaking and training of colts Is
Of prime Importance, because their fu-
ture value and usefulness depend to
great extent on whether or not they
are well broken. BY 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 great
est characteristics Is uniformity Of
conduct. What horse is once trained
to do he will nearly always do under
like conditions.
Education Of Horse.
The first thing in training horse is
to get his attention. The second is to
make him understand what is wanted.
The education of the horse Is based
on reward and punishment. The re-
ward, 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 un-
reliable by the carelessness or unnec-
essary brutality Of their trainers. If
a horse kicks because the harness
hurts him, or SHES at something Of
which he Is afraid, punishment is not
justifiable. If, however, after being
stopped, horse starts before receiv-
ing the command TO do so, he should
be punished. Horses are naturally
obedient, and when thoroughly trained
their conduct is uniformly good.
Best Training Of Horse.
A horse should be trained so that he
thinks there is no limit to his power to
do the things required of him, and be-
lieves that he has no power to do that
which is against the wishes of his
driver. Above all. never ask of q

should be sewn up. CapOns scalded
and picked bare bring very little, if
any. better prices than other poultry
in the same condition.
Most markets require capons to be
undrawn and the head and feet left
on. Care should be used to cleanse
the head and feet of all signs of blood
and filth.
Pack In Neat Box.
After picking, the carcasses are
hung in a cool place until the animal
heat has entirely left the body, when
they are ready to be packed. Like
other poultry they should be packed
in boxes of convenient size, holding a
dozen carcasses, or in barrels. Every
attention should be given to neatness
and attractiveness, as this helps the
sale and the price. During the time
of year when most capons are mar
keted-January, February and March
no ice is necessary, but if for any
reason they are shipped in warm
weather they should be packed in
ice.

with the green feed and grit added.
Influence Of Feeds.
The green feed is sometimes left
out Of the ration during the last seven
days Of fattening, as 1t tends to color
the meat and may produce slightly
flabby rather than firm flesh; how
ever. it is easier to keep the ducklings
in good feeding condition on mash
containing green feed. Boiled fish may
replace the beef scrap, but should only
be fed up to within two weeks before
they are killed, as 1t may give fishy
taste to their flesh, United States de-
partment of agriculture specialists
suggest. A considerable quantity of
boiled fish is also fed in the mash to
laying ducks in sections where the
duck farms border on the water and
where fish is available at very small
cost. This fish aids materially in re-
ducing the cost of feeding.

cannot be done. If during the first year
of his work a colt Is hitched only to
loads that he can pull, he will develop

All horses cannot be treated alike.
A high-strung, sensitive horse must be

TO REOPEN MILLS
IN HOPE OF ORDERS
Amosheag to Run Half Time With 40
Per Cent Employees Until New Busi-
ness Coues-Confident of Revival.

MANCHESTER, y. H., Jan. l.
When the Amoskcag Manufacturing com
many starts up its mills next Monday
work will be resumed in all departments,
although not at fun capacity. OF the
5000 operatives fully - per cent will be
given employment. and others will be
called in later, until the entire force Is at
work.
All the operatives will work under the
new scale of wages, which calls for re
duction of 2213 per cent. 1t Il ofhclally
stated that the mills have received no
new orders and the product will be stored
away to await the demand which sooner
or later, ii is believed, will set IN,
For the present the mills will be run
on half time but should orders come the
time will be heightened and full work
ing schedule restored AZ soon as conditions
warrant it.
1T will be the sole object of the Amos
Keag Manufacturing company at the be-
ginning of the year 1921 to get business,
regardless of what the price of goods
may be, so that the management will be
able to keep the mills running said
Agent William Il. Straw.
1T is my hope and belief that the reduc-
ton of the price of goods sold at retail,
which is bound, in my opinion, TO take
place early in the new year, will be the
means of starting business. Until there
is a change in present conditions the
Amoskeag mills. beginning next Monday
morning, will run in every department,
until further notice, three days per week.
IF conditions improve and business
warrants, more days will be added. What
the mills are looking for is business which
will keep them running and our operatives
employed"
