Could any one imagine that such nonsense could
Could any one imagine that such nonsense could emanate from people who passed for horsemen?
Now from this, although in some respects the same class of nonsense that was talked about Mr. Rarey, it does not seem that any Parisian veterinary surgeon staked his reputation on the efficacy of oils and scents.
M. Baucher then proceeds to give what he calls sixteen Airs de Manége, which reflect the highest credit on his skill as a rational horseman, using his hands and legs. But he proceeds to say It is with regret I publish the means of making a horse kneel, limp, lie down, and sit on his haunches in the position called the ‘Cheval Gastronomie,’ or ‘The Horse at Dinner.’ This work is degrading to the poor horse, and painful to the trainer, who no longer sees in the poor trembling beast the proud courser, full of spirit and energy, he took such pleasure in training.
