If the bone breeder is to saoeeed in breeding dnSt horses be must
nse a pore bred stallion of a draft Inwed and possessing indindnal draft
trpe. • Don't ehange yonr l»eed nor your ijfpe. I^t t^ <rther fellow use
the upstanding, narrow stallion or the greasy-legged, wind-bsdnn kind,
even if tbe service fees are ten dollars less. Wn> makes the monqr la
the end, you or bet .

Remember, also, tbe draft stallion should be a good free walker
with a Imig, easy, springy stride. Tbe draft horse does his work at a
walk, so tbu is the impOTtant paoe. Ton like to drive a free walkiag
horse and so does the man who wOl bny.your colts.

Above all, don't use a istaDion beoanse it is convoiient, <»r beeauae
a friend owns it or beeauae it is dieap, or beoanse yon don't lilw to turn
the owner down. Remember you are not in the business for your health
and if you were baying seed grain you would not buy weedy or froaen
seed beeanse Tom Jones owned it or because you got it at half i»iee.
In paying your service fees yop are buying seed. See to it that it is
tbe best

Sthetion of Jfarss.

It should be borne in mind, that in <»der to produce good stock the
oane should possess at least some of the blood and dwraetoristios of
the breed to wbioh the sire used belongs Hm begimier will do well to
start with grade mares. Tbeir'initial ooat need not be high >Bd the loas
is-li|^iter£f one dies. By the time two or diree years' aetaal work has
domnsteated a man's fitness tot stock raiaiBg, it will be 6me en<w|^ to
trade the giade mares for pure- brads with imspects of fair success in
handling uiem.

In selecting maree, those fmnibur to mx years <M that have pro-
daoed w that are with foal should have the pf^srenee^ especialfy fmr
beginners; for th^ are snflksiently mature to «iaUe one to judge
aoeurately of their w^|^, oonformation, soundness and breeding quim-
ties. Tbe last point ia eapeeiaUy important, tor quite a bi|^ peraentage
of maree jwove to be banen at at leMt Hky breedCTs. This ii i^eu due
to tbe eare and feed'th^ receive. Do not use nnsoond mazes tor bieed-
in| purposes. Yon are not only pwpetaating poor animals but endless
pain and misery as welL ^

Vaim of Mama.

On average farms mares can do all necessary work if an extra
pair of Aem are kiqpt to permit of li|^tening the work of those that
are heaviest in foal, and to provide for the two or Ihree weeks' recite
each mare should have at foaBttg time. As a general mk it is not wise
to breed mares until they are at least three years <dd, as early l»eeding
stunts tbe growth ol flte animaL In addition to perfi»rming Oe farm-
work, odts may be reared iriiidi practicsUy eonnt as 'dear pnAt, and

Care of PregnMU Man.

The pregnant mare must have regular and sufficient exercise and
It is usually considered pvaferaUe, when possible, to give this exercise
in harness, as br so ddng the amount of aaereise the mare takes is under
control, at is also the amount, quality and time of feeding. By this
means of exernse also, the mare, when oarofuUy handled is less liable
to injury and helps to pay for her kaep. Authorities on the subject
agree that s mare can do a good heavy day's work without unneeessaiy

SSl.^***J^"^^**^'"°*^- After that His mi
advisaWe and the mare should not be pat to work again for at least two
tracks after birth occurs. In woridng, strenuous eSrt, such as entailed
by a dead puU, working in mud, booking heavy loads or going thromdb
deep mud or snowdrifts should bo avoiM. ^^

P09d for Pregnani Jfors.
Feed tegnlarly and UbwaUy, remember that the brood mare has
a douUo function to perform and it is not sensible to ask her to do it on
wheat straw and water even though she is not working. In winter some
palatable roughage, such as sheaf oats, weU cured hay or fodder com
should be fed st least onoe a day. Hay is a searoe article somotimeB but
the man who makes money out of horses does not feed wheat straw
three times a day all winter to hir brood mares.
