Scotland and England, but pony
breeding has made such astonish-
ing strides because of the ready
market, high prices and handsome
profits of that novel form of agri-
culture that pony breeding has be-
come an industry of imposing pro-
portions.
American breeders have been un-
usually successful in this as in
other lines. THE English miners
prefer ponies that are only thir-
ty-eight inches high and cannot use
any that are over forty-three inches
high" Mr.. Simpson said. This new
market makes the present the best
time We ever saw for engaging in
the Shetland pony business as We
are able to get prices that compare
fayorably with those for horses and
yet can keep six ponies on the feed
required for big horse. In one
instance pair of stations about
forty-two inches high were sold to
Alfred Vanderbilt for $4,000 by an
Illinois breeder

storm of democratic objection arose
in the House of Representatives this
afternoon after the reading of the bill
to incorporate the Rockefeller founda-
tion in the District of Columbia was read.
The bill was introduced by Representa-
tive Peters of Massachusetts, and after
the objections Speaker Clark announced
that. it had been stricken from the
calendar.
The bill provides for an enormous
corporation. limited in the bill to
$lOO 100000. to be used for the best in
terests of humanity at large for the
edge, for the prevention and relief of
sunering and to foster human progress
in every shape.
Democrats Object.
Half dozen democrats jumped to their
feet and shouted, Il reserve the right to
object" Representative Sheppard said
he was opposed to granting a special
charter of this kind because in his opin-
ion 1t would allow this enormous fund of
money to be used in competition with pri-
vate individuals, that too much money
was exempt from taxes and that it was
not good public policy.
Representative Raker of California
made an objection also and finally Rep
resentative Fowler of Missouri said
