perabundance of hair on Clydes-
dale's legs is not considered neces-
sary, as 1t is on those of the Shire;
this can be seen by glancing at the IL
lustration of Royal Guest. the cham

when quite clean-legged, 1. e., with no
long hair on his legs. 1t is a very
active. quick animal. with any amount
of pluck and endurance. and no breed
is better suited for teamwork. Suf-
folks. like Clydesdales, are also suit
able for working in towns, where
strong. quick-moving horses are need
ed. Suffolk horses have been known
to live to great age, and longevity
is claimed to be a special feature Of
this breed.

OF the several breeds of Leghorn.
the white is the most popular and the
brown next. says the Farm Poultry.
The Bun Leghorns of the best strains
have about all the good qualities of
the white variety and are fast gaining
popularity, the color being more at
tractive to some tastes. The Black
and Dominique Leghorns also have
their advocates. Each of the Leg
horns. although naturally having sin
gle combs, are bred also with rose
combs. The rose comb is obtained
by introduction of Hamburg blood,
and the result is in general a tendency
to smaller bodies and smaller eggs In
the rose comb varieties. The single
combs vary greatly in size and weight,
according to strain. Some Of the
larger strains are almost equal in size
to the average of some of the medium

to flourish almost anywhere. notably
shorthorn cattle and Shire horses; but
an owner of Shires who brings them
up on light, thin-skinned land Is Sc
verely handicapped when his horses
come into the show-ring. He then
finds that his rivals who occupy stiff
fer and richer soil can produce ami
mails with more bone and hair than he
can. Large. well-shaped feet. plenty
of bone and good joints are absolutely
necessary nowadays on a first-class
animal Of this breed.
Shire horses are especially adapted
for town work and for hauling heavy
loads. and one can judge from the
photograph Of this strong. heavy and
yet compact mare how suitable this
breed is for that purpose. The Clydes-
dales are not such massive horses as
are the Shires, neither are they SO
large in the bone, but the strength and
