I — SOME FACTS ABOUT THE HORSE. A colt unbroken is worth little more than nothing; Improperly brok en, it is worth still less. It is harder ■ to break a horse that has Been tam- ' pered’ with by unskilled hands than one never touched by the hand of man. Often it is impossible to rid an individual Os faults thrust upon it, when a youngster, by an educator who has aot had the necessary experience. Many times horses have thus been spoiled for life. P. C. Masterson, the horse trainer , and educator, is a man thoroughly ex- ’ perienced and equipped for this undertaking. Horses placed in his ( charge can be placed there with the ; fullest confidence that they will receive the careful and skillful attention, made possible by years of ex perience. Now is the time to hav< colts broken. Don’t wait till warm weather, as you can now get them handled with more attention. Masterson is also a developer g/ speeti, and has met with splendid success in this line. In fact, this is his main business, of which the break ing and educating of colts is a very important branch. Experience has taught Masterson that horses trained for speed should be started early in the year. When a horse goes a “good corking mile’’ every muscle and fibre in its make-up is put to the most tense exertion. For this much power of lung and muscle is required. To get this power a good supply of systematic jogging is unavoidably necessary. During the racing season many good prospects are turned out on pasture because they were put to the test of their speed and endurance before thay had sufficient preparation. The horse should be built up in the winter in order to develop speed in the spring. Any attempt to get speed without muscle will be met by disaster. The subject best fitted for hard campaigining is the prospect well win tered. Masterson is well equipped so; such wintering. Training barn a; ‘ Steele's park. Address P. C.
