HORSE

Produced in collaboration with Dr Ernest Horn, Iowa State University; Dr A. I. Gates, Columbia University; Dr T. L. Torgerson and Celeste C. Peardon. In showing the role of the horse in modern life, the film follows the development and training of a colt from one week to three years of age in the Blue grass country of Kentucky. A horse breeder, his granddaughter and a trainer, minister to the needs of the colt, Prince, who is training for the walking, trotting and cantering gaits before appearing in a horse show shortly after his third birthday. In the introduction various types of horses are shown, but the body of the major emphasis is placed upon the saddle horse, beginning with the horse one day old and carrying it through various stages of growth until it reaches maturity. Special methods of training are depicted.
