The proper time to commence breed
ing tillies is matter that agitates the
minds of horsemen as often as any
other, and one that is not and cannot
definitely be settled. In this as in
many other questions in regard to
breeding so much depends upon the
animal that no definite rule crn be laid
down that will cover every case. Where
a mare is growing and sound in every
particular she may be bred at two years
of age, without any fear of bad results
and without any danger of injuring her
growth. But with the majority OF mares
it is better to wait year longer before
breeding. There is less probability of
any mistakes being made however, it
breeding is postponed until mares are
three or four years of age. The anxiety
to get quick returns often temptS
breeders to stint their fillieS before
they should.-National Stockman.
