The stallion that la worked regularly every day will get the moat and tbe best cults. Pick out a sire with a good disposition. Never raise a colt from a naturally vicious tem pered mare. Peculiarities of dis position are almost Invariably transmitted. A small cask or half barrel flt ted with a floating top to keep the water from splashing out should go to tbe field with tbe teams every day. Never hire a cheap man to work a good pair of borse. It will mean Iom every time. A- bright Intelligent .man, a good manager and a dose ob server will save more than hla wage In tbe amount of work be wll accomplish and In maintain Ing the condition of bis team. If there were fewer whips In tbe world there would h? fewer ngly horses. " Tbe horse that la all v time being tapped with the V (. nev- j er Knows wnai nis maat . mesas X by It and coiom to think be J means Just nothing. 144 H-t-H-HIt-I-l-nk;li-N-h IBOOMINQ KdllJHXCR.
