"lrAde up or get left"
This applies equally ar well to one as an
other kind Of stock
1li Is profitable to grad" up in ca,,le,wEy
not in horses swine and poultryP
cannot answer for Frederick county, bu;
see signs in Fayettc, indicative Of almost
an over production of horses.
There has been n great deal Of interest
worked up, the past six years here, in colt
raising. and now that price are SO low there
is only profit IN one line. That is high
grades Of whatever distinct breed you may
fanry, or are best fixed to handle. Nvrmans.
English draft or Clydcslaes either bring big
prices at tender age, while good stepners are
always sought after, and to this class we
want to direct some attention.
A gentleman from the Northern part of
this State was here last week, to purchase,
and he did, a car load of what termed good
steppers, or as is perhaps more proper, gen
eral purpose horses
There are grades bred here from standard
bred sires, such as Morgans, Clays, Handle.
tonians, Cadmus, &c. They are Of about
1000 to 1900 lbs weight Good style, good
action ana plenty big for ordinary farm
work, will take the bits freely and draw 40
bushels Of corn to market to the span, and
Will take all easy road gate of eight miles an
hour in light harness. THIS class of horses
will pay to handle, depend upon it the mar
general-purposc horses.
We here, heed the sacred udmonition, DE
epise not the day Of small things"
