In Live Stock j Farming XI.— Raising Draft Horses. By C. V. GREGORY, Author of "Home Count In Modern ' Agriculture." "Making Money on the Farm." Etc. Copyright 190C. by American Preao 1 Association RAISING draft horses is one of ; , the most profitable branches; , of Hve stock farming. It can J be carried on to gdod advan- \ tage In connection with general farm- . lug, since the brood mares can be; used for field work. Five or six brood mares will easily do all the work on ' a quarter section. In this way they will pay for their feed and care, leering the colts for profit. In selecting mares frpm which to raise draft colts size Is an important I consideration. A boree has to weigh ■ at least 1,600 pounds to come In the draft class. Every pound that he weighs over that will add at least 25 j cents to his value. Judging Draft Horse*. After size the next point to consid- ' er is appearance. A draft mare should be wide, deep and massive. She should be fairly low set, but not so " short legged that she cannot move 1 well. She should be symmetrical— that is, all parts In proper relation to • each other. B Together with these other points should come draft conformation. The head should be of fair size, clean cut, ^ with the face slightly dished and the I, eyes large, bright and expressive. A small "pony" head Is very undesirable. A draft horse with too much " neck Is seldom found, though over- ^ short necks arc rather common. The

Isl no. TT — GOOD TTPE OF DRAFT MARE

neck should be full as weil as long. The neck of a mare shouty not show any tendency to the crest that marks the stallion. Masculine characters In a mare or feminine characters In a stallion indicate that they will not make reliable or prepotent breeding animals. The shoulder should be neither too straight nor too sloping. A straight shoulder interferes with action and Is 1 usually associated with a stubby pastern and generally with a long back as well: In light horses the more sloping the shoulder the better, since this conformation is favorable to long or 1 high action. In draft horses too sloping a shoulder brings the point of draft 1 too high and may even cause the collar to slip up and choke the animal. The ' | face of the shoulder should be broad to give a good bearing surface for the J collar. The top of the shoulder should 2 ' not be open or coarse and should blend - 1 well Into the back. The back of the draft horse should 3 , be as short as possible from the top of j the shoulders to the hips. A short 0' coupled, compact horse can handle I himself better than one with a long, o | loose coupled and often swayed back. The ribs should be well sprung, long and close together. The space between the last rib and the pelvic bone should 2 not be .over three or four Inches. The 2 loin should be wide and heavily muscled. The region from the hips back, called the croup, should he broad, long I and not too sloping. It is the blDd J; I quarters that furnish the propelling [0 i power, and size and masslveness here 10' are all Important points. The thighs 1 10 iu> imnvllr muscled both Inside I should e

and out and should be broad when s I viewed from the side. The muscling 1 | on the Inside of the thighs should ex- i I tend well down. 1 Next In lm|<ortanee is constitution, c j This is indicated by a deep, wide chest 1 ; a full fore flank, large nostrils and a ! deep barrel. A horse that Is tucked up . | In the hind flunk tires easily and can- 1 I not be kept up In flesh when at work, j This Is an especially had fault lu brood mares. Quality Is very Important as it inaiI cates endurance or staying power. A ' small horse of good quality will do , more work thnD a coarse, loosely put . together animal 500 pounds heavier. Quality Is indicated by a fairly thin, pliable *yn; fine, glossy hair; cleanness of bead and clean legs. The tendons at the back of the legs should stand ont clearly, giving the canon a flat appearance. There should be as little meatlness as possible at the hock and between the tendons and tha , canon bone. The hoof should be of flense, bard horn, and In hairy legged breeds the feather should be fine and ^ silky. There Is an old saying, "No foot no horse." The feet and leg* are very Important since they must do the propolling and receive all the hard knocks , it heavy service. The forearm and D gaakln should be heavily moscted. The muscles In these regions cannot be • eaaOy covered with fat so their siae a an Indication of the antaaTa rnnarting I throughout. The forearm, and anaaln

ao angle of about forty-Ove degress " with the ground. A sloping parent 1 absorbs the sbost* of traveling oa hard roads and pavements. Unaoundu esses are very likely to develop on 9 short patterned bog*r in moving the horse should go straight within •<*«. | easy stride. ' A Unsoundnesses, with serious uusoundnesaae should not be used for bit-eders. Blight unsoundnesses in mares are not so objectionable as in stallions, since t|M -ria mare does not 'Influence nearly aa many colts. Unsoundnesses are not transmitted to colts, but the weaknesses that are usually responsible for un1 sound conditions are often transmitted. The principal unsoundnesses are ring- I , bone, sidebone, spavin, bog spavin, ; thoroughpln and curb. Sidebone Is a bony formation at the ! hoof head toward the beet Ringbone I may be found In the same place, ex- ' tending all the way around, or It may i be higher up on the pastern, !a which case it is known as high ringbooa. Spavin Is a bony formation on the inside of the hock. Curb Is a bony en- , largement at the back of the leg Just below the point of the hock. It Is moat usually found on "sickle hocks." It , ccn be readily noticed by looking at , the leg from the skle. Bog spavin I is a soft enlargement on the Inside of the hock. Thoroughpln Is a smaller ; enlargement extending through tha Joint, where It can be felt In the web " of the hock. Neither hog spavin nor 1 thoroughpln Is serious unless very < 0 large. ' The stallion should possess the same e general characteristics as the mares. " Herebould show masculinity In a strong 0 bead, a nose Inclined to be Roman rather ri»»n dished, a fairly heavy crest 3 8 and a large chest. In selecting a stale lion to breed to do not pick ont the '• cheapest one In the neighborhood. e Five or ten dollars' difference In tha K service fee will mean $50 to $100 dlfr" ference on the price of the colt when h It Is four years old. If there Is not a r" good stallion In your Immediate neigh ie borhood, take your mares ten miles or more If necessary, but do not use an mure u —

Inferior stallion. Often fifteen or twenty farmers can go In together and buy a company stallion. Do not buy a horse that Is. "peddled" by a smooth tongued agent. Such a horse Is likely to be one that could not be sold In any other way, and you will generally pay twice or three times what It Is worth. The best plan Is to organize the company first and then send a competent ; man to some reliable horse establishment to pick out the stallion. Th* Value of a Pure Bred Stallion. The question of breed Is largely one of individual preference. If the mnrea of the neighborhood are nearly all grades of sume particular breed It will pay to get a horse of that breed. Be careful In the selection of a breed and then stick to it Nothing will produce a mongrel lot of horses more quickly ; than changing breeds every few years. ' Above all. get a pure bred. A grade may be a good enough Individual, but be will not have the long line of 1 m- : proved ancestry back of him on both sides 50 give him the prepotency that ' a pure bred has. The grade has mon- ; prel blood in him, and It is bound to , crop out in his colts. Entirely too much stress Is laid on 1 the value of imported stallions. For all t practical purposes home bred animals • r are just as good and can be purchased ; for much less money. Size In a stalj iion is all important. A horse that e weighs less than a ton In breeding 1 condition should not be used The 1 mere fact that an animal Is bred in a foreign country cannot udd anything j to his actual value, and the reasons f that such an importation Is rated high t er than tbe domestic product are cblefe ly sentimental. It Is time that this unwarranted discrimination should be l brought to an end. g Never patronize an overfat stallion, n Fat Is a convenient means of coverd ing defects, but it is hard on the anie mal's breeding powers. When the 5- stallion Is not In service be should be i, given plenty of exercise, preferably at g some kind of work that is not too serf vere. He should be In good condition g and good spirits when the breeding ■e season opens. During tbe breeding is season he should lie given regular ex- j le erelse and plenty of It His feejl and plenty or 11. <

should consist largely of oats, with a 1 little corn, and an occasional mash with a little ollmeal added. Good, bright timothy or clover hay In limited quantities will make up tbe roughage part of the ration. The stallion should be well trained and kept under perfect control. Not - s more than two mares should be served
