rows.
A large concourse of sorrowing
friends attended the impressive funer
al services here.
Mr.. Sans death on Saturday night
was notoanexpected,, in view of his
long continued illness, but the passing

man was none the less a source of
keenest sorrow to all.
For many months he has been an in-
valid, afflicted with an incurable m al-

upon him.

URN ED OFF WATER
AT THE Y. M. G A.
Boys Gut Off From Priyi-
Iege of Cleaning.

There is no water at the Y. NJ. G. A.
for the boys to use in taking shower
baths, neither is there any water for
the renters of rooms to wash their
faces this morning. After they dress
they will have to scatter to convenient
friends around the neighborhood for
their ablutions.
The city turned the water off yester-
day afternoon The Y. M. C. A. is a
grand public institution, it represents
vast amount of effort on the part of
the public spirited citizens of Ame l.
Gus, it has been struggling under a
great debt, it is doing a good work, ii
is looked upon with pride by the peo-
pie of the city, but that didn't stop the
city from turning off the water when
the Y. M. G. A. failed to come across
with the water rent.
The Y. M. c. A. owes the city about
$50 for back water rent. In some
cities they remit the water rent for a
struggling public institution like this.
Even in the geat cities of the land the
municipalities are not above helping
the Y. M. G. A. in this very thing, re-
NIT water rents due and give the insti-
tuition helping hand 1t is struggling
now to raise funds to keep it going in
proper shape.
Americus enjoys the unique distinc-
tion of being probably the only city in
the country that has so far turned the
water off in the Y. NJ. c. A. building.
Whether the distinction is an honor to
the city is something about
which citizens may differ n
their views. Some may even
think that such things don't help a
city. But the water is turned off and
the Y. M. G A. roomers and members
Will probably wash up at the fountain
by the postoffice for a few days, until
the friends of the Association rally to
the rescue or the City Council relieves
the situation.

SfENG GEORGIA RALLY
IN MONTH OF JUNE.
Plan to Show to PrOSpeC-
tive Settlers.
Especial to Ttmes.Recornerl

Atlanta, Ga, May 2.-One If
the most timely and impor-
whole state of Georgia that has been
devised in recent months is that of
the immigration committee of the
Atlanta Chamber of Commerce to
hold Seeing Georgia" rally in the
month of June
The purpose of the plan is to bring
hundreds of northern prospectors TO
the state just at the time when Geor-
gia's natural resources are in the full
bloom of summer growth, entertain
them with barbecues and other char
acter.stic Georgia festivities, take
them into the wealth of advantages
and attractions possessed by the state
for settlers of means who are seek
ing a mild climate and rich soil.
The committee proposes TO enlist
the cooperation and support of all
the railroads coming into the state.
1t is pointed out that whereas the
railroads of the west and northwest
are constantly advertising and laud-
ing the advantages out there
tie railroads of this section have con-
spicuously been neglectful in this re-
spect, and it is believed that if the
proper attention were given to this
sort of publicity thousands of desir-
able settlers and millions of dollars
would be attracted to the state in q
comparatively short time

Accompanying the explosion was
other phenomena which, Mrs. Jones

SUCCESS WITH
THE HORSE

An expert on the subject of breed
ing horses gives the following infor-
nation, which those interested in the
subject will find valuable: No line OF
breeding requires more thought and
study than horse breeding. This is
why so many fail in producing the
highest types. One of the essentials
is knowing the type of sire to breed
the mare to. Many farmers will breed
a light mare to Il heavy horse or the
very opposite, and the result is moth
ing tangible in the way of improve
ment. Every farmer should know
what kind Of an animal he has and be
able to select a sire to breed her to
that will give an improved offspring.
With a proper selection made here the
remainder will be easy.
1t is we'll TO note at the outset that
no horse is absolutely perfect. Every
animal has some defect. be it large or
small. The defects in the mare should
therefore be carefully noted, and the
sire selected should be especially
strong in the weak points the mare
may have. 1t should be hardly neces-
sary to mention that it is never a
good plan to cross breeds. To make
success of the business the horse
breeder must select one breed and
stick to it,
Some have had fair success in cross
ing the Clydesdale and the Shire. But
these are much alike in type and con-
times to tell the difference between
good Clydesdale and a good Shire
Outside of these. Crossbreeding is not
advisable, and the best hOrSemen be-
these two breeds, but to stick to one
or the other. This is certainly the
| only thing to do if one wishes to pro-
duce pure bredS eligible for regiStra-
ton. Many of our farmers have re-
sorted to all kinds of crossbreeding in
the pasta kind of experiment it has
Identifying one breed one season and
changing to some other breed the next.
Nothing is to be gained and great
deal is lost by such a practice. If a
farmer has a Clydesdale mare or one
In which Clydesdale blood predomi-
mates he should breed her to a Clydes-
dale stallion, and so on through the
list.
In selecting a draft sire the head is
worth looking at. A good. broad fore
head, a bright, intelligent eye and a
we'll set ear indicate that the animal
possesses some brains and can be
taught something. The horse is an
The Greenville journal. [volume] (Greenville, Ohio) 1850-1918, 1910-05-19

AN HONEST EQUINE CoUNTENANCE.
intelligent animal, and those of the
right type can be taught a great deal
in proper hands.
A horse should have springy pas
terms of medium length, and he should
have a good, hard. finty foot made of
yOod material. i don't advocate a big
bot. think medium sized foot will
wear little better and is not quite so
apt to get down at the heel or get fat
footed. l want a horse with a neat,
smooth hook bone that will cover well
with muscle and flesh. We want the
quarters fairly long, good pin bones
and we'll covered with flesh, we'll laid
down the inside of the leg and as
broad as you can possibly get them
on the outside, strong in the stifle and
with a good, broad, clean hook
Standing by the side of a horse, you
want to select an animal with nice
Iy set leg and with the hook broad,
clean and hard. Looking at it from
the front. you want a hook that is
broad and clean. That is the kind of
hook that will wear and stand all
kinds of heavy work, no matter wheth-
er you have to back with heavy loads
or draw forward. The hind leg and
shank should be practically the same
as in front except that you would re-
quire to have three-quarters of an inch
more bone in the hind shank than in
front
Another important thing to know is
that you have horse that is a good
walker, horse that will pick up his
legs fair and square and set them down
faiF and square, moving every joint,
not one that will move his limbs with
no knee or hook action. If these de-
fects are in the sire they are very like
ly to be in the foal. Many of you have
noticed horses which when they are
walking away from you will throw
their feet out sidewise and others
when they are being led toward you
will step over. This is something we
do not want. I prefer horse that will
pick his feet up straight and set them
down straight. l would select a horse
every time that stepped over II had
to have one or the other because he
will climb hill better with q heavy
load than n horse that keeps his legs
too far away from him,
