. Annual report of the New York State College of Agriculture at Cornell University and the Agricultural Experiment Station. New York State College of Agriculture; Cornell University. Agricultural Experiment Station; Agriculture -- New York (State). Fig. 131 Halter tie begun the end of the rope is passed as shown in Fig. 128. Pull the knot up tightly. There is a right way and a wrong way to leave this tie when hitching to a plain post without a groove, ring, or crossbar to keep the rope from slipping down. If the knot is twisted arcund to the right of the post, as in Fig. 129, a pvdl on the tie rope will draw the rope tightly about the post and will thus prevent it from slipping down; if, on the other hand, the knot is at the left, as in Fig. 130, a pull will not tighten it and it will slip down. Halter tie.— This is a knot preferred by some persons to the hitching tie just described, for use in hitching or in tying the halter rope in the stall. If properly set, it is secure and may be used in some cases in place of F^°- ^32 the under- hand bow- line knot. The halter tie should never be used around a horse's neck, because if the tie is not set up correctly it forms a slip knot and its use might result in strangulation of the animal. Pass the end of the rope upward through the ring, then downward on the left of the long rope, grasping it with the right hand and holding the long rope with the left hand as shown in Fig. 131. Draw the Fig. 133 Fig. 134 end to the ^''^^'' ''' -^""^^'^ right and upward, as indicated by the arrow in Fig. 131, thus supporting the long rope as shown in Fig. 132. Now pass the end of the rope over, under, and again over the long rope, as indicated by the arrow in Fig. 132 and as shown in Fig. 133. Draw the end through, as in Fig. 134, and set the knot by pulling first on the short end. This is important. If the long rope is pulled first and the kinks in it are straightened out, the tie forms a slip knot, being simply two half hitch
