Alma record. (Alma, Mich.) 1878-1928, 1909-03-25

Owners of pure-bred stations have
been pleased to comply with the Wis
consin law as regards posters, having
nothing to hide and everything to gain
by publicity; others have been lax in
this respect or have pleaded ignorance
as an excuse, when taken to task for
their negligence. This condition Of
affairs will be apt to continue TO
greater or less degree IL, as is now the
case in many districts, owners of
mares aid and abet the owners of stall
lions In their evasion of the law and
also are Indifferent as to the breeding
of the stations they patronize, pro-
vided the service fee is kept sufficient
ly low. A cheap service fee is the
least consideration in breeding horses.
The cheap fee means a cheap selling
offspring. II is the proverbial penny
wise, pound foolish" policy and it is
high time that our farmers learn that
II is to their best interest TO make
sure that the stallion they patronize is
pure-bred, sound a fine individual and
properly prepotent and In that case
the service fee will be of little mo-
ment and will be more than paid back
when the time comes to sell the colt.
If a groceryman must sell oleomar-
arine he should at least ticket il as
such and not advertise IL as pure,
creamery butter. In exactly the same
way ii is but right that the man who
offers a counterfeit, grade, or scrub
stallion for public service should ad-
vertise its true breeding and this is
done when. according to law, the Ii
cense certificate is printed and posted
( up in conspicuous places wherever the
horse is used.
Relative to the stallion situation the
following facts will be of interest to
horse breeders:
The secretary of the stallion regis
/ tration board of Minnesota, Prof. An
drew Boss, says: The law requiring
/ the enrolment and licensing of stall
+ ions was passed on April %, 1907. The
board was organized in May and dur
ing the first year of its existence has
/ licensed 1853 horses. OF these LILO,
or 37.5 per cent, are pure-bred; 1,S49,
or 62.5 per cent, are grades; SO have
been refused license on account o. un-
soundnesses which are recorded as
transmissible and would be likely to
affect the get OF these stations. IL is
estimated that % to 80 stallion owners
have been advised by local veterin-
arians that their horses could not pass
examination and application has not
been sent in for them. n all proba-
bility 1925 unsound horses have been
kept from service in the state this
year. The Percheron breed of horses
leads all others both in grades and
pure-breds. with standard bred trot
tiers second and Belgians third in the
list
I'm some sections of the state there
is slight opposition to the law, due
largely to local prejudice, or misrepre
sentation on the part of some preju
diced stallion owner, or other inter
ested party. AS a whole, the law is
meeting with the approval of the horse
breeders of the state. This is evi
denced both by the large number oil
horses registered, and by the core
spondence necessary in securing IL
censes. With only a few exceptions
the law is being obeyed strictly, som
counties reporting only one or two
horses still unlicensed. Some misun

scarcity OF labor in all the building
branches. The matter was taken up with
the several local unions. through the

II was unanimously shown by those un-
ions that each and every one of those
unions engaged In the building trades
had members idle at the time. An av

their membership were idle and looking

that building operations are retarded by

by the incemency OF the weather. and
not by any scarcity of skilled labor.
