in the "scalawag" bunch which goes
out every year, and includes horses
no longer fit for cow use.
A Sunday horse" is one with an
easy saddle gait-usually a single
footer with some style. The boys go
"gallin Sundays, and in every
mount of the younger men there is
apt to be such horse, but not in
any sense saved from the regular
work for Sunday. An individual"
is the private property of a cowboy
and not very much encouraged, as
it is only natural that he does not
get much work, and is an encourage
ment to go tgallin.
The regular cowboy gait for pas
ture riding or line work or ordinary
cross country riding is a "jiggle"-
sort of fox trot that will make five
miles an hour. For the roundup hard
running is necessary part of the time
and usually a stiff gallop the bal
ance.
Safe to Say Hello, Red"
Mechanics are the rule. Anyone
is comparatively safe to say Hello,
Redi" to a man with red hair, or, as
the range word has it, red pointed.
Every outfit has its Slim and its
Shorty" which may fit or be the
opposite. big Boy or big I'm" is
in evidence. Then comes names
which require special explanation.
Paint" came from the fact that his
first job on the ranch was painting
a wagon; DOC" from having DOCTOR
ed horse.
An unusual name is that of Scan
dalous john" and came from a
chance expression. John Selman is
one of the best riders in the west.
The first day he came to the ranch
The circle banner. [volume] (Circle, Mont.) 1914-1939, 1922-08-25

as night horse, often left saddled,
and which can be gotten quickly if
anything goes wrong. About the
ranch one or two horses are kept up
to rustic" all the horses in the morn
ing, but when working with the wa
gon most of the boys still stake a
night horse. The custom is dying
with the decreased occasion for hold
ing cattle at night.
All the saddle horses of an outfit
thrown together are called the re-
muda. The remula is in charge of a
man, usually half grown boy,
known as the horse wrangler, whose
duty it is to have them in a band
when wanted to change mounts, and
to see that they are watered and graz
ed and kept from straying. The
horses are assembled early in the
morning, at noon and at night, and
at such other times as the work may
demand change. In making
round the boys use their widest and
swiftest horses-usually their young
est, to tame them down. When the
roundup is together they use their
cutting horses, which are as a rule
their oldest and best.
The Naming of Mounts
A horse is a "hoss" always in
cow camp A summer horse is ridden
rarely more than twice week. The
horse breaker or 'bronc buster
usually names horses as he breaks
them, and if the horse has any flesh
marks or distinct characteristics they
are apt to come out in the names. So
it is that one generally can glance
at horse and guess his name.
For instance, if he has peculiar
black stripes toward the tail with
little white in the tail you are pretty
safe to guess "Polecat." If his feet
are big or clumsy s'Puddin' Foot is
a good first chance. The following
names occur in three mounts, and to
get the full list had to dig hard:
Red He'll, Tar Baby, Sail Away
Brown, Big Henry, Streak, Brown
Lima, Hammer Head, Lightning, APP
ron Face, Feathers, Panther, Club,
Rambler, Powder, Straight
Edge, Scissors, Gold Dollar, Silver
City, Julius Caesar, Pop Corn, Tala-
nestle, Louise Cage, Trinidad, Tater
Slip, Cannon Ball, Big Enough, Lone
Oak, Stocking, Pain, Grey Wonder,
Rather, Whiteman, Monkey Face,
5nakey, Slippers, Jesse James, But
.ermilk, Hop Ale, Barefoot, Teeto-
.aler, Lift Up, Pancho, Boil Weevil,
Jrawfish, C1abber, Few Brains, Show
BOY, Rat Hash, Buttenbeans, Cigar
stte, Bull Pup.
Only geldings are used in outfits;
stations are worked or ridden in win
.er, but no mares are used except as
he property of some individual. A /
'bronc" is a horse recently broken
)r about to be broken. The "bronc
buster" rides him few saddles. This
oony is known as a bronc the first
season and as last years bronc the
second season. Most all of the brancs
bitch some, but very few of them long
,r dangerously. Modern methods of
have reduced the percentage
If bad horses. Many would not pitch
1t all after the first few times if the
'ider did not deliberately make them.

amount of riding or handling will
'ubdue. He is turned in" and sold

A ranch in it's entirety is known
as an outfit" and yet in a general
way the word outfit" suggests the
wagon outfit which does the COW
work and lives in the open from April
Is, when work begins, to December
1, when it ends. The wagon outfit
consists of the "chuck wagon" which
carries the food, bedding and tents,
and from the back of which the food
is prepared over an open fire. The
"hoodlum wagon" which carries the
water barrel, wood and branding
irons furnishes the chuck wagon with
water and wood, the branding crew
with wood, and attends all roundups
or branding pens with supply of
drinking water.
The remula, which is composed of
COW ponies, and the horse wrangler,
always travel with the wagon" Re-
muda is the Spanish word for saddle
horses. The wagon crew consists OF
the wagon boss, usually foreman OF
the ranch, cook, hoodlum driver,
horse wrangler, straw boss, and from
eight to IL men as the work may de-
mand. In winter the outfit is reduc-
ed to the regular year-around men
who are scattered over the different
ranch camps.
No Work Out of Saddle
In almost everything industrial,
the problem is reduced to men," but
in the ranch it is reduced to men and
horses. One might almost say to
horses, since the love of horse ex-
plains why there are cowboys-not
rough riders, or the gun decorated
hero of the moving picture, but earn
est, everyday, Woodworking boys who
will sit "a hours in saddle and never
whimper.
Every horse has name and every
man on the ranch knows every horse
by name. A man who does not love
his mount does not last long in the
cow business. Very few are cruel to
their horses, and one who does not
treat his mount well is a sbird OF
passage" on most ranches. There is
an old ranch saying that between the
shoulder and the hip belongs to the
rider, and the rest to the company.
over the head or squirting in
the shoulder means time check"
Always Talking Horse
Cowboys principal topic is their
horses, or of men who ride, and every
night about the campfire they trade
horses, run imaginary horse races or
romance about their pet ponies. Every
cowboy has mount of from eight to
IA horses during grass time, which
get no feed except the regular graz
Ing. There is always one gentle horse
that can be staked without cutting
himself on the rope. This is known

The late Frank s. Hastings, once
a resident of Kansas City, had oc-
casion, as manager of the 400, 1000
acre ranch in Texas of Swenson
Brothers of New York, to study
cowboy life in its true aspects. Not
long before his recent death a
book by Mr.. Hastings, "a Ranch
mans Recollections," was publish
ed. The following sketch from his
writings has to do with the Lingo"
at camps and range. The words
which the cowboy has added to the
American language are forceful
and picturesque.

OPEN SALOON STAYS OPEN.
Private Stills Keep 1t That Way, Says
Catholic Priest

Philadelphia, Aug. "a man who
does not possess a private brewery is
out OF touch with the fashions of the
day, the Rev. John @. Bean of Pitts
burgh today told the general conven-
ton of Catholic Total Abstinence
Union of America.
THE open saloon which we thought
ceased to exist, is still Open" declared
the speaker. 1T still serves as an en-
ticement to the young men. Soft
drinks only are supposed to be dis
pensed in saloons, but the drinker can
get any kind of drink he wants. The
home brewery is not confined TO tina
foreign element 1t is just as preFa-
lent among the native born. Many
who call themselves good citizens are
in the bootlegging business. *
My point is not to decry proilibi-
tion or that it is a failure. My point
is that prohibition up to the present
time is under severe handicap and has
not been a success, due to that handi-
cap"
