comes, be bred to a pure-bred sire Of
the same breed as the original sire.
and this plan of breeding should be
continued, cross after cross, until five
or six top-crosses OF the same pure
draft breed blood having been put on
the progeny is practically pure bred
OF the breed used in its making.
There should never be the slightest
deviation from this plan Of breeding.
Had there been in France We would
not have the modern Percherons OF
today; and mixed breeding. such as
has characterized American opera
tons. would have absolutely prevent
ed the origination and perpetuation Of
the Clydesdale. Shire. Suffolk or Bel
CLAN breeds. Selection and some mix
ing in blood had to be followed in the
early origination Of these breeds, but
II is no longer necessary and now
would be ruinous. Then. too, the sire
must be sound. and throughout the
entire operation OF horse breeding. as
we have seen. adequate feeding must
be the rule.

With the birth OF the great number

ling drafters weighing 1900 pounds,

fail to supply the growing colt during
the first year OF its life everything
essential to its continuous growth and
development. The value at maturity
OF the colts foafed this spring and
summer in the state OF Indiana can be
increased large per cent. II the foals
are kept growing during the latter
part OF this summer, this fall, and
during winter OF 1923. The aver
age value OF the horses on the farms
OF Indiana cannot be increased In the
greatest possible degree by merely
the use OF improved sires and dams.
Before the Indiana farmers can
successfully compete with the other
farmers OF the corn belt in the pro-
duction OF heavy draft horses and
with the farmers OF the old world In
the production OF pure bred draft
horses they must learn the lesson OF
correct feeding. Size and substance
are essential In the drafter and these
cannot be obtained by stinting the
colt during the first year OF It's life.

and you will get higher priced colt
on the market at an earlier date than
can otherwise be done.

cattle have a way of staying around

Did 1t ever occur to you that
load Of good manure is worth as
much as load of ties? 1t costs s12O
to get a load of ties cut, from $500
to $500 to get them to market, and
you get $3.50 for load of ten first
