Monitor Office,
As To The Stallion Law
The writer has received inquiries
during the last few weeks as to
whether or not it is necessary that
all stations be licensed. The law
does not require it, only those stand
ing for public service. Every stallion
should be examined by the veteri-
marian to the Stallion Registration
Board and licensed. It costs but lit
tie and is a recommendation to the
buyer, should the horse ever be Of
fered for sale. No one should pur-
chase a stallion without being sure
that the registration papers are
genuine and that the horse is able
to meet the requirements of the law
as to hereditary diseases and I'M
soundness. When a person pur-
chases stallion, he does not know |
to whom he may sell. The prospec-
tive buyer may want to stand this
animal for public service and he
would be unwise to purchase, when
there ls'a question as to the animal I
being able to meet the requirements
Of the law. Therefore every person
buying stallion should insist on
having a license for the horse from
the Stallion Registration Board. The
veterinarian to the board will cover
Montana this spring and summer
and every one who desires his stall
hon examined and licensed can have
y, It will be impossible to send this
We ernarlan later in the season to
remote places at great cost to ex-
anime single animals, as he visits
Ihe various places on regular sched-
ule, The stations of the whole com
lnunlty should be brought in to be
examined.
furthermore there is a question
as 70 what is a stallion company. The
writer cannot reply to this and there
Wlll oe undoubtedly some tangles to
S'ralghten out with more or less ex-
penSe regarding this question. The
08le thlng is to license the stallion
alla then there will surely be no mis-
UNDERSTANDING or trouble. Another
queStlon is. can a service fee for an
~ Unlicensed stallion standing for pub
Nc service, be collected? The fee
cannot be collected and the nerson
a'sllolhg the stallion can be punished
az p provided for by law.
~ lne advice of this board is that
a stations be licensed and it urges
= s'l ID all stations be purchased with
S1 Incense and then there will be no
s rguo1 about their being able to
S'and for public service.
