CURING HORSE’S BAD HABITS
in Case of Chronic Balker Course o*
Training Will Be Needed to
Overcome Fault.
Horses- that have been properly
handled and trained are not balky,
neither do they have bad habits.
When horses with bad habits are en
countered a careful study of each case
should be made in order to ascertain
the cause, and, If possible, to re
move it.
The most common cause o f balk
iness among horses is punishment to
make them do something that they
cannot do or that they do not under
stand how to do. Another common
cause is the forcing of horses to draw
heavy loads without allowing them to
stop occasionally to rest and regain
their breath. The use o f the whip or
spu r' in such instances should be
avoided, as the pain inflicted will be
very likely to provoke further and
more stubborn rebellion. If a horse
balks the bearing o f the harness
should be examined to see if it is
hurting him. If a heavy load Is be
ing drawn and the horse is not al
lowed to rest and regain bis breath
and strength he may become sulky ,
and refuse to puli. Give him a short
rest, and while he is resting rub hls
nose, pick up a front foot and tap tbe
hoof a few times, or adjust the har
ness, and he may forget his grievance.
Take the lines and give the command
to go ahead, turning slightly to the
right or left to start. If the horse
does not start it is either a case of
overload or a .chronic balker. If the
load is so heavy it cannot be drawn,
unload.
If the horse is a chronic
balker a course of training will be
necessary to overcome the habit.
In older horses where the habit of
balking is fixed the horse should be j
trained to obey all commands with j
promptness without being hitched to j
the wagon. First put on the double
trip ropes and use them until the
horse stops and stands when he hears
“ whoa.” Next put on the guy line,
which should be managed by an as
sistant, while you drive and attend the
trip ropes. The guy line is a rope
fastened around the horse’s neck and
a half hitch over the lower jaw. It
is very severe and should not be used
to excess. If tbe horse shows any
tendency to balk, give the command
“ whoa” before he stops o f his' own
accord. When ready to start, ;the as
sistant should take a position in front
of the horse and smartly jerk him f-or-

hogs, 3,928 head, have been marketed
from the county through co-operative
work, with an estimated saving of $6,-
000. In Houston county the depart
ment’s representative taught 18 men
to vaccinate hogs. Six sets of instru
ments owned by the Dothan Rotary
chib were supplied to the demonstra
tors and a serum-distributing point
was established in charge of | reliable
veterinarian. More than 9,000 head of
hogs were treated. In many cases it
was found that sickness, other than
cholera, was due to some incidental
cause, such as bad peanut meal, and
balanced rations were advised. The
county agent’s work resulted in 32
farmers establishing pastures to keep
their hogs off the open range, the land
thus pastured being freed from many
noxious weeds by the rooting of the
animals, and prepared for future culti
vation.
Forty-four farmers In The
county were interested in stump re

was cleared in this movement. About
five tons o f dynamite was bought for
the purpose largely on the co-operative

ward with the guy line at the same
time you give the command “ get up.”
Repeat the process of stopping and
starting until the horse shows no
signs of self-will. Use the guy line,
and use it severely, on the slightest
intimation that the horse is going to
balk. After a few of these lessons the
horse nfay be hitched to the wagon.
The trip ropes and guy line should be
kept on until he is well broken of the
habit.
- A horse that kicks when something
touches his heels is dangerous to 1
drive. To overcome the habit, put on
the harness and the trip ropes. Take
a stick and pole him all over. After
he becomes submissive to the pole,
tie sacks o f hay to the traees and j
breeching, and continue the lesson un
til he pays no attention to them.
Fasten a long pole on either side
with one end to drag on the ground,
the other end to be fastened to the
shaft carrier. Drive him around with
these, and if he attempts to kick com
mand “ steady” and pull him to his
knees. The lessons should be contin
ued until he submits to the poles drag
ging between his legs and round him.
SILAGE FOR PRODUCING BEEF
Missouri College of Agriculture Out
lines Satisfactory Plan With
— Young Steers.
Highly satisfactory beef can be
made from two-year-old steers by
feeding corn as silage, together with
linseed meal and clover or alfalfa hay,
Instead o f full feeding shelled or ear
Tor», according to the Missouri Col
lege of Agriculture.
One acre, yielding 40 bushels of
corn, or eight tons of silage, if fed as
silage, together with 1,733 pounds of
linseed oil meal and 1,810 pounds of
alfalfa hay would produce 756.8
pounds o f beef and 11.3 pounds of
pork. If, however, the corn be fed as
shelled corn (full feed) and silage, to
gether with 308.2 pounds of linseed
meal and 345.2 pounds of alfalfa hay,
it would produce 291.6 pounds o f beef
and 68.5 pounds o f porfe.
