al Live Stock Exposition thedraft
horse was greatly III evidence in
the show and on the market.
"There are different types OF
draft animals and each has its
admirers and advocates" says
the Drovers' Jourcal.
The primary object of breed.
ing draft horses is to produce an
animal that fills a commercial
want.
If one produces horses for
which there is a narrow and in
different demand, he will find it
a prohtless industry.
An extraordinary impetus has
f. been impaired TO the fine draft
horse husbandry by the interest
taken in fine pairs ana six:in-hand
teams during the past five years.
The matching of pairs and the
the grouping of pairs in show
and commercial teams has aided
largely in popularizing the mas
sive, blotky type draft horse.
The cham pion teams exh mted
at the three International Live
Stock Expositions were of low
down, massive conformation.
While the stilty, outstanding
type may display more style and
loftier action, they lack the sub
stance, power and endurance to
move heavy loads.
Enormous weight is incompat-
BILE with sensational speed.
The powerful freight engines
that move the traffic of the ma
ton are mounted oh low trucks,
tie fleet moguls that whirl the
fast express trains across the
continent at a speed.of sixty miles
an hour are equipped with high
driving wheels.
Record speed is attained by
eliminating the type of heavy
traffic machines.
The freight engine would soon
be disabled if express speed was
required of it, and the fest mogul
would soon be laid up for repairs
if compelled to perform the SER
vice of a freight locomotive.
Power and endurance to move
heavy loads demand that drafters
should represent gr eat substance
combined with lowdown, blocky
proportions.
Speed which comes from the
stilty, outstanding types is always
attended with proportionate loss
of power.
Great .weight-moving ability
demands short leverage, with
conformation close to the ground.
The types that were the most
attractive at the International
Show were the shortlegged, COM
pact animals, with heavy bone
,3pd immense girth.
The champion drapt pairs
stood sixteen and one-half hands.
were deep through the heart,
with powerful bone, massive quar-
tiers, great breadth of breast,
with necks of medium leangth
and heavy upright shoulders.
The best types measured 10 to
II inches around the cannon
bone, with girth of IS to 100 inch
'es, and weighed LOO to 1000
pounds.
The educational advantage of
the late exhibit was of incalcala-

There is probably surplus of Cos

things-that Roosevelt will not be
the next republican nominee and that
Cleveland will be the next democratic
nominee. Doubtless there are good
many republicans who would prefer
somebody Fairbanks, for instance
to Roosevelt and good nany demo-
Gratis who would like to see Cleveland
again the party's candidate. But
they are in such minority that they
can do nj thing aud will not attempt
anything. Nothing thatis subjected

events is more certain than Mr.. Roose-
