The Horse Knows
The difference between a harness
or a bridle that Is right and one that
Is wrong. Many a good horse Is
spoiled by a poor harness. Many
an accident would be saved by a safe
harness. A cheap harness may be
very dear, but a dear harness need
not always be good. It is all in
using good leather and knowing how
to make them. We have had nearly
fifty years' experience In tho harness
business and we will give you tho
benefit of that experience whether
you buy our own make or a factory
harness, but our own make we know
is the best for you to buy, because
they havo the material that will
wear. Ask your neighbor, who has
used them.
