to pay for keep until matured. SO that
under average conditions the cost o.
service and Of feeding for tw616sts
will make the cost of the colt. We arc
driving a team OF good young horses,
enc three and the other four years old,
that were raised in this way. and they
are able to do o very large amount OF
work. And anything like a fair colt will
sell for double the cost OF the feed for
two years. By the time one team OF
colts has matured sufficiently to be
ready to sell another younger team
can be ready to do the work. OF course
good mares should be kept. and they
should be bred to good horse. 1t ii
hardly advisable to keep and breed
plug mare, and especially # she is breo
to scrub horse. A colt from mat
ing of this kind would hardly sell at .
profitable price, and there is no gooa
reason for raising a, colt of this sort
Average good mares can be secured SC
cheaply that it is economy to have gooe
nares and breed to good sires, using
all reasonable care to raise good colts
and il there is anywhere that they car
be raised proftably it is on the farm
where the mares can be used to an ad
vantage in doing the work and the colt
may be used sufficiently to pay for theil
keep as soon as they are old enough.
