Horse Talk.

What Texas and the south needs in
the horse line is, not more horses, but
better ones 1t takes many kinds Of
people to make a world, and it takes
many kinds of horses to suppsy these
many kinds of people. The farmer
wants for his own use horses of good
size, large bone and lively movements,
suitable for the saddle, the pillow, the
road-cart or the wagon-a sort of all
purpose beast. OF course, such a sad
die horse will not be the very best for
the purpose, such buggy horse will
not be famous as roadster, and such a
draft horse will not be heavy Per-
cheron. Farmers who can afford to
have them, of course, may revel In the
luxury of a special beast bred for each
of these purposes The ordinary farm
err, however, will often find it con-
venient to unhitch his pillow team,
FURNISH them up with comb and
brush and wisp of straw, sad.
die, mount and HE him away to town;
or transfer his horse from the plow
beam to the buggy shafts and himself
from his solitary position between the
handles of the pillow to seat beside
his wife on the plush cushion of his
buggy. The cities need roadsters and
heavy draft horses, and for good ones
will pay good prices. The sporting
fraternity want fiiers, and will have
them at any price, and the breeders
want animals whose projections are
ornamented with a pedigree as long as
that of petty prince. In short, the
farmers want the best farm horses; the
city transportation companies want the
best draft horses; the fast young man
wants the fastest trotter; the retired
banker wants the spankingest pair
of matches; the sport wants record
beaten, and those that can produce
such animals are sure of their reward.
