Useful Hints on Horse Breeding

The horse and his production has
fascinated man and stirred his imag-
ination through all the ages. The
subtle influence he has exerted on
mankind will continue-writes e. J.
Iddings in Ranch and Range. The
breeding and rearing of animals, es-
pecially the production and handling
of good ones, affords an outlet for in
telligent effort and arouses a desire
to further achievement. We all stop
to look at breezy and outstanding
animals of any kind.
The horse has been mans COM
panion and helper since the distant
stone age and there are few well bal
anced men or women who do not love
a good horse. An admirer of horse
flesh can see poetry and romance IN
every movement of beautiful spec1-
men of the equine tribe.
There are four systems OF Dreedlng
commonly recognized by authorities
on breeding and reproduction. Ihese
are cross breeding, grading, line preeu-
ing and inbreeding. Unfortunately
the amount of accurate information
prevalent concerning these dlHerenC
methods is far surpassed by the VIDE
spread misconception OF their powers
and possibilities. Unfounded belets
concerning the powers to work goou
or evil Of one or more OF these sys,
TENS of breeding have prevailed
among Americans for many genera
tons. =
Inbreeding is supposed to result In
deformity and insanity. It's practlce
may bring such results in some cases
but not for the reasons popularly as
signed. Inbreeding is the mating Oh
sire and dam when closely related
The restriction of choice animals Ior
mating to a certain strain of family
within a breed is called line breeding
For present purposes we may say that
neither is adapted for use where the
user does not thoroughly understand
the laws of breeding and have full
realization both of the advantages
and of penalties of breeding close ana
in and in.
The ancestry back of an animal may
be compared to a stream OF water
which flows strongly in well deIneu
course. Since mans earliest hlstory
these streams have been SO noWllls'
changed slightly in volume ana ulrec-
tion from time to time by the aolnlN
tire of new currents OF animal HE.
When the breeder mates sire and dam
for the reproduction of young ne
brings together two different currents
or blood lines. If the mating makes
a good mick" the Two streams mlngle
and commingle and flow as one strong
err more vigorous, more useful tnah
either of the two currents from Whlcn
it sprang. However, II the we we
streams have come from enClrely el,
ferent sources and have hoWeo LOT
generations through very dissimllar
Channels the component elements OF
each will be found to be opposing
forces and will fail to unite into
symmetrical, harmonious and usetul
Whole. Some breeders, who are ad,
vocates of violent crossing OF animal ma
types, direct two strong opposing cur a
rents of blood lines at each other anu

BREAKING EGG EATERS.

One poultry writer says: My hens
had everything to eat that any hen
could wish for and they ate their eggs
as fast as they laid them. So | went
to the coop after they had gone to
roost, with my lantern, took each hen
from the roost, held her head near
the light so l could see through the
bill (Which is transparency, and with
a sharp pair of shears I cut the tip
of the upper bill off. | was careful
not to cut deep enough to bring blood.
They have never eaten an egg since
and a number of my neighbors have
tried it with the same result. 1t does
not bother them in eating at all.
Shells and gravel as well as char
coal should be accessible to the poul-
try.
A few good hens are better than
big fiozza Of mongrels.
