RAISING GOOD HORSES.

Tho Most Profitable Industry for Farmers
with a Little Capital.
just now there is no one crop pro-
duced on the farm that begins to pay
the profit realized from well-bred
horses. The farmer is Invited to look
over the whole field and then say if it
is not so. Nor is the demand all for
one kind by any manner OF means. All
that is called for is something good; be
it roadster, carriage or draft. The day
of the scrub in horse breeding has
passed, that is to say, the demand all
along the buying line being for some
thing good, the producer, the farmer
breeder must, in order to meet the
market, produce what is wanted, if he
wishes to breed and sell at u profit.
There is room for all the good breeds
known to American farmers because
they each have a place which they can
fill to advantage. The farmer who
trots off to town with span of 1900
pound Percherons or Clydes shows not
alone his good sense but his thrilt.
because when called upon they will
pull a heavier load over the road, be
it good or bad, than a pair Of little
miserable scrubs. On the same prin-
ciple the man who has a pair of Cleve-
land bays in front of his barouche or
carriage. has style, pluck, courage and
grit. They can get over the ground at
a ten-mile pace for hours without feel
ing fatigue, and then after feeding and
a bit of rest, turn around and go back
again. And what is true of these is
pre-eminently true of the American
trotter in whom we have a concentra-
ton of courage and vim, plucky and
enduring fellow that will measurably
go as fast as the road will permit, and
never give up so long as the power of
endurance lasts.
But let us be friendly one with the
other. Every man to his taste. We
do not all care for trotters, some even
believe it sinful to breed & horse that
can outstrip his neighbor on the road.
much more show him on the race track.
S;CMl men have queer views of other
mems practices, but tolerate their own
with a graciousness that is both "chi]d-
like and bland.' They forget the old
maxim, ''there are none good" but are
carried away with a species of right
eousness unknown to any but them
selves. Be it then our duty to breed
only the best, seeing that whatever we
produce of that character is wanted at
paying and profitable prices, and that
it is the horses turn just now. Once
it was hemp and tobacco, then it was
Shorthorn cattle; these were for a short
time overshadowed by the Herefords,
then the black doddies came to the
front until we exhausted the beef cat
tie supply. The noblest Roman of
them all has the field to-day, and the
demand is for good overwhelmingly
