The Draft Horse.

The breeding of draft horses
has come to be a very PORTABLE
adjunct to diversified farming,
and at no time during the last
fifteen or twenty years has the
price been higher for good
draft and heavy farm horses.
While the automobile may, to a
certain extent, have replaced
the horse for city delivery, still
the bulk of the farm work is
done with horses; and prices
for good stock are as high or
higher than ever. There is not
the demand for medium quail
ty and lightweight horses that
there used to be, but good,
smooth draft and heavy farm
horses are bringing good prices.
There is little reason why the
farmer should not continue to
raise horses Of this kind, since
Northumberland stations, too,
for that tnatter-will produce
stronger and better colts for
having been kept steadily at
work on the farm.
On the home farm we have
raised some of the cleanest,
best colts, and worked t h e
m lres right along. There are
certain conditions under which
it does not seem to be practical
to put the breeding stock into
harness, but on many farms
these conditions are not met
Where farmer must rely al
most wholly on hired help to
drive his teams, it may not be
practicable to put pure bred
stock into harness. If the farm
boy hows an interest in horses,
raise some good drafters. Put
good harness on them, and
tell the boy this is his team to
work, and there will be no ques-
ton about the care they will
get. You will find the boy, af
ter a days work, out currying
off the horses, making sure they
are comfortable. 1 speak from
experience, and know that
when these horses are offered
for sale they will bring a good
price.-.1eo. P. Grout.
