The Value of One Good Mare.

The value of a good breeding ami
NAL on the farm can scarcely be over
estimated. There is an ordinary
looking mare near the writer's home
that during ten years has produced
eight colts. Four of these colts have
been sold for $765, and the other
four, which the breeder still owns, are
valued at $500, making a total of
1885 worth of colts in ten years.
During all these years this old matron
has earned her own keep by doing
regular work and is again in foal at
this time. With a few such mares on
the farm the boil weevil need have
