BREED FROM SOUND HORSES
Folly Of Getting . Foal from Either

Perfect material Is necessary for the
building Of q perfect edifice. Unsound
material means structural weakness
that architectural beauty can never or
set. So in horse breeding. Two SOUND
parents are necessary for the production
of sound offspring. Soundness in one
parent cannot be trusted to overcome
unsoundness In the other. One or both
may have beauty of form and the re-
sultant progeny may likewise be beau
tiful, but mere beauty is Of little value
in the market unless associated with
soundness and good wearing qualities.
The fixed law in breeding is that like
produces like" hence, while we continue
to use unsound stations and mares in
our breeding operations, we shall have
unsound horses to offer on the market at
the small, discriminating price paid for
such animals. Breeders should refuse
to breed their mares to an unsound stal.
lion no matter how handsome he may
appear, how we'll he may be bred, or how
many prizes he may have won. The
stallion must be free from disease known
to be transmissible to the offspring In
kind or as susceptibility. He must
have sound eyes, hearing and wind, +"
and be free from spavins, sidebones,
ringbones, stringhalt, st. vitus' dance
(chorea) and contagious diseases. To
this end the breeder should demand of
the owner certificate of soundness
signed by . reputable, qualified veterl-
marian. He should see, too. thnt the
stallion Is pure-bred and duly record ed
In the stud-book Of his particular breed.
but should not accept pedigree as an
apology for the absence of any one Of
the other necessary requirements. The
stallion is, however, but one side of the
proposition. His mate must also be
sound. We must quit the absurd ruin.

among our brood mares, prevalen,

sequence is that many Of our horses are
unsound and their market value small
on that account. Let us forthwith insist
that every stallion used in the state shall
be sound and vow that We will never
again breed an unsound mare.
