PONCHA SPRINGS, Colo. August 20, 2008— Have you ever had an ad drop out at the last moment—or a space that didn’t sell before printing deadline? Or has someone turned in a story that’s just a little too short? Julie Goodnight to the rescue. Goodnight—known for her clear communication in print and on her new RFD-TV show, Horse Master with Julie Goodnight—provides a tip each month for use when you, as an editor, need just a little more content or a great quip to fill out your magazine. Tips may be edited for style, length and content. Content is provided free of charge. Here’s a tip to help you when you’re in a layout crunch . . .
 
Stop horses from stomping
Flies can be a constant source of irritation to your horse in the summer. If your horse is spending most of his time biting, stomping and kicking at flies, he could be causing unnecessary wear and tear on his joints and it could present both a training problem and a safety problem for you. When I work with horses, I expect them to stand perfectly still on my command—not moving a single foot unless authorized by me. But I cannot expect him to stand still if flies are biting him. Also, getting head-butted by a horse that is swinging his head around to bite a fly or having your foot stomped on is neither pleasant nor safe for you. In addition to fly spray in the worst months, I use fly predators, an environmentally sound product that stops flies at their source and keeps my entire property virtually fly free. I also make sure my horses receive a joint supplement to help keep their joints safe and lubricated in case they’ve had to stomp too much in the past.
