Breeding Carriage Homes.
Uncle Sans horse farm, conducted
by the department Of agriculture in
cooperation with the Colorado expert
ment station, is developing a breed Of
carriage horses on an American foun-
dalton. When this experimental work
was taken up carriage horse breeding
was decided upon because such horses
are. as a rule. the most valuable on the
market and as a result of the strong
demand the supply was gradually d.
m%inishing. Most important of all, how
ever, was the feeling that steps should
be taken to correct the practice Of cas-
,trating valuable stations and selling
valuable mares for other than breed
ing purposes. Among the number Of
stations and mares purchased vas the
stallion Cannon formerly shown as
Glorious Thundercloudl. bred by ex-
Secretary Of Agriculture Norman J.
Coiman.
Teaching tho Colt to Eat.
An old horSeman says that the best
way to teach a colt to eat Is to begin
while the mare is nursing il. He feeds
the mare nee a day on hay cut in
inch lengths, mixed with bran, mid
dlings or other ground feed and mois-
tened with water, just enough to make
- aIhnro To tho how anI nnt no S1cr,v
He arranges the feed box SO the colt
can learn to eat with the mare. In
this way by weaving time the little
animal will be able to keep his colt
flesh and weaving will not hurt him.
A little of this feed will digest easily,
is economical, will distend his stom-
ach, and If followed until he is four or
five years old, when his digestive or
gans are In perfect working order, he
will be practically immune from collie
or stomach trouble.
Beiqians to the Front.
Speaking of Belgian draft horses re-
Gently, one Of the largest dealers in
New York said: "Our customers all
like them for their remarkable keeping
qualities as well as their great weight,
and they are coming right to the front,
the best Of them commanding prices
equaled only by the pick OF the Per
cherons. ! suppose there are no other
horses on earth more docile and more
easily kept than Belgian drafters.
They come in all colors, yet I think l
can pick one out every time by the
points hat are fixed in the breed
They are the closest built, blockiest
horses that we see, with short necks,
short. clean legs and short bodies, Of
enormous depth and breadth and usu-
ally with dropping rumps. They are
not quite as active and snappy as the
Percherons, and as a class they do not
show the same quality, but when it
comes to throwing weight into the col
lar the modern Flemish horse is a
mailer. l think that a cross between
the Percheron and the Belgian gives
us the really best draft horses we
have today"

sUFFRRGlsTs WANT REPRESENT.
ATlvE ON BOARD.
State Executive Committee May
Recommend Woman on Board
to Governor Carroll

Des Moines, May 1S.-Instead Of
recommending the appointment of a
woman as resident superintendent
for the girls reformatory at Mitchell
vile, the executive committee of the
Iowa Equal Suffrage association
which will meet in Des Moines Sat
urday, may ask Gov. B. F. Carroll to
appoint a woman on the state board
Of control.
The recommendation of woman
superintendent originated with the
Rev. Miss Gertrude Won Petzhold Of
the Unitarian church, but is not
favored by the equal suffrage women
who are more familiar with condi.
tions at the institution. To have a
woman ON the state board has long
been the desire of the association,
but it has met rebuff from every gov.
ernor since the state board was
created by law.
The term Of Office of John Cownie
on the board contemplates in April,
1910. Because of the fact that two
names suggested by Governor Carroll
for this vacancy were turned down by
the senate the suffrage women be.
lieve that they may gain their point
in the settlement of the : contro
versy.
