Breeders. a.a "
 At raeeting of horse breeders in Chi. cago it was resolved to form an associs- ton to te known ss the American Stal- lion show. Their objects are to improve the horses of the country, and to give annually, an exhibition to be known as the AmericaA Stallion show. The first of these shows is to be given in the spring of 1891. ....
 The association will also be directly in- terested in aiding to prepare a creditabie live stock display ct the Worlds fair in 1892. All horse breeders in good stand ing throughout the country are invited to become members of the association and aid 1t in all ways, Committees have been appointed to draft constitution and bylaws for the new society, and the fec for certificate of membership was fixed at $l0 each.
 Applications for membership can be filed with either of the following gentle men: s. n. Thompson, Chicago; Charles Burgess, Winona, Ills; R. r. Stericker, Springfield, Ills; J. Murray Hoag, Ma quoketa, Ia A. Oltlnan, Watseka, Ills. i; Charles F. Mills, Springfield, Ills; Archie Galbraith, Janesville, Wis; Charles F. Stubbs, Fairfield, h.; J. D. Conner, Wa bash, Ind, and ". H. Goodpasture, Nashville, Tenn.
 Following are the reasons sat forth for the formation of ttte organization, to- gether with some of the resolutions adopted:
 Whereas, The profit in breeding horses largely depends upon the advantages en- joyed for selling stock at an advance over the cost of production, and
 Whereas, The demand for stallions of approved breeding and individual excel lence of the various breeds of horses largely exceeds the present supply, and
 Whereas, The great majority of breed CTS of stallions lack the necessary facil- ities for meeting purchasers and making advantageous sales at the season when stalhons are generally selected, and
 Whereas, The development of the commercial industries and the rapid ex- tension of the vast farming interest of this country will make corresponding increase in the future demand for good horses; and
 Whereas, The interests of breeders of sta.lliops and parties desiring to pur- chase the same can Do greatly promoted by the establishment of a spring stall ion show that will bring such parties and the stock together at some access ible point, therefore be 1t
 Resolved, That the breeders and i'm porters of horses here assembled favor the cstahli. nent of an organization to be known as the American Stallion Show, and invite breeders of the recog- niZed breeds of stock to become mem bers of the association.
 Resolved, That each of the associa- tiors engaged in the publication of stud books for the improved and distinct breeds of horses be requested to desig- nate 8 representative breeder, making a speciality of the breeding of such stock, to serve on the advisory committee of the association.
 Resolved, That the president and sec retary of the Stud Book association re- ferred to above should, in the opinion of the meeting, be appointed superintend- ent and clerk to take charge of and make full report relating to the exhibits of the breeds represented by their re- spective organizations.
 Resolved, That the judges appointed to pass upon the various improved breeds of horses exhibited at the American Stallion Show should be selected by the official board of the respective Stud Book associations
