The ranchmen of the West are rapidly
finding out that the bronchO is Of but
very little use for anything and that they
are becoming of less use and value every
year assthe requirements and tastes of
the COUNTRY advance, and as result the
m05e progressive Of our stockraisers are,
rs rapidly as possible, breeding out the
'bucklng broncho from their herds and
are replacing them with the get of the
best stations that can be obtained. A
great many are devOting the nselves eX-
cluSvely to middle-w weight TOadsters and
carriage horses, and those that have been
in the business long enough to be able to
place some of their stock on the market
declare themselves as greatly pleased and
considerably benefited financially by the
result, as one good team of their breed
ing of to-day turns as much cold cash
into their pockets as did a dozen head Of
the raising of bygone days. Others are
devoting their time and money to the
raising of half breed draft horses for the
Western market and feel themselves
greatly encouraged by the ready sales
they make of the prices of their farms
and the handsome products received. A
few others use the thoroughbred stallion
with their native mares, thereby pro-
ducing very handsome and very stylish
saddle horses, and occasionally some
thing that shows remarkably good time
on the race track, that are quietly COB
bled up at fancy prices, while their
bronchos are left on the ranch to nip the
tops off the sage brush and other like Oc-
equations pleasant to them, out I'M
profitable to their owner. The death
knell of this class of horses has been
sounded, and the sooner the ranchman
gets rid of those he has on hand and COM
mences TO breed for quality instead of
numbers the sooner he will find that
horse raising is very renumerative bus
mess.
