ding. He proposes that ench county should
have brand; that the county be numbered
the number TO answer for the county brand,
and TO be put on the neck when branding nor,
ses. BY branding under the name, horses VIII
he Jess -disfgured than by branding on eny
other part Of the animal. That persons brand
with their private brand, as heretofore, on The
shoulder, or elsewhere, provided they do not
brand on the neck. ThePioneer correspondent
thinks that il such law were in force IN Tex
as. Il would be impossible 10 have stray sale,
unless the owner had left the State, or was toe
careless 10 comply with the law. Horse steal
