KICKINQb habits of the horse, which in no way owe their origin to vice, are often as troublesome and dangerous as those which do. Kicking in the Stable.—To break up this dangerous habit, it is only necessary to place the animal in a stall closed at the head, or against a wall, so as to allow him no opportunity of jumping into or over the manger. Tie his head short and suspend by a cord at either end, a bag of straw, hay, corn husks, or any soft material so as to strike the hocks whenever the animal kicks. The bag rebounds, striking him upon the hocks; after several repetitions the animal is observed to stand and tremble; the bag at this point is to be pulled upon one side so that he does not see it^ and when the animal gets over his excitement try and induce him to kick. If you succeed, immediately let the bag go JMick to its former position. Two or three kicks will again quiet him, 279.
