To select a Candidate for the Ontario legislature_w_i_ll_be held in the Town Hall, Durham, on Monday, Nov. zlst, 1904 THE HORSE AND THE CARS. I The horse that is not afraid of the first electric car he meets is a freak. He lacks equine spirit, and displays a woeful want of assertiveness so es- sential to a truly natural horse dis- position. Yet, horses must be brought to know that cars will do them no harm, and that their rum- bling noise is no more hurtful than that of the farm wagon. There is one certain way this cannot be done, and this method is so obviously it- ‘ rational that we were surprised when recently we saw an apparently in- | telligent horsewoman practicing it | upon an ordinarily well-broken i driver. Strange this irrational met- ;hod is the one most natura'ly, or, at least, most humanly. employed. Its details are something like this: ! Electric car approaching, horse other g wise steady becomes more and more animated, begins to look for means of escape; driver tightens reins. seizes i whip, gives a domineering command .just as the car flies by, horse all in a tumult, begins to realize he is not hurt, and that a car is harmless, when suddenly the whip cuts him across the flank, the bit tears across his mouth, and, to his bewildered senses, the car has suddenlv become ‘ transformed into an instrument of torture, which attacks him from be- him. and from which the only escape ; 18 to bound away, irrespective cfi consequences, but at every bound! the whip descends upon the terror- Stricken brute; until he either 806‘; ceeds in getting away or the driver? brings him under control, but he has’ his remembrances of a trolley car. and ahorse’s memory can generally be depended upon. Thus a horse that is otherwise well-broken becomes absolutely dangerous upon a road where cars are likely to be met, until by a process of elimination, he has! come to discern more clearly between E the acts of his driver and those of the I car, and even when he has discovered 3 that the car is harmless, he very ; often learns to regard it as a signall for more punishment. Fortunately,‘ all drivers do net adopt this absurd: method of teaching horses the harm- l lessness of cars. The man or woman : who knows the horse nature, first. shows the horse there is nothing to 2 fear by being kind and gentle, and by 7 keeping the temper under control. i The horse very largely models hisl behavior according to the example of . the driver, and, in time, if not abused I when meeting cars or other unfamili.‘ ar objects, will soon lose his fear of them. When breaking the young colt to harness it is very important that he should be hitched by the side of a fast walker of good manners. By being induced to step out for some time after first leaning to the collar. the young horse may be to a great extent led to acquire a desirable gait. Slow walking. like other objections to some horses, is hereditary. and when a colt is found possessed of a very slow gait, the result of bad breeding. the greatest success cannot be expected from careful training. In the same manner too the colt that has been bred to walk may be injured by being broken to harness alongside a slow walker. THE PAST WALKER. The fast walking horse. and other things being equal. is the most pro- fitable horse for the farmer. There is too little attention paid to the walk in selecting a sire. and just as little in choosing a brood mare. A team of horses with a clean step and a clever gait will cover nearly fifty per cent. more ground in a day than a slow pair. This in comparison means considerable economy in time, and in money as well, when expensive hired help has to be used for driving, Ennsenative Convention. (From the More Adm) MOT Till Ammonia .
