declared: Il do not say that eugenlc

Who Sired johnnie Mack the Sire Of Lord


in the stud as well as in the market
and show ring Yet the American
horses, selected by shrewd buyers,
was able to compete successfully with
name of the foreign breed, but finally
standing on his merits as the Amerl-
can horse.
These horses came from all over
the country, wherever trotters were
bred; but the New England states,
Kentucky and the corn belt states
were the main source Of supply. In
many cases they were properly called
accidents-th is, they were not bred
for the market or show ring as car
riage horses, but for the race track.
Failing in the latter qualification and
possessing good conformation, style,
action and quality, they were not ap-
preciated by the man who was breed
ing solely for speed, and were readily
sold to be developed for the market.
Farmers and breeders did not suft1-
GENTLY appreciate the value OF the
horse for anything but speed produc-
ton. In the case of the Morgan the
same thing was true in another way.
Everyone knew the qualities of con-
formation, style and endurance which
the breed had, but few realized that
in the long run those qualities were
worth more money than speed records.
Then Morgan breeders began to think
that the Morgan could be made race
horse, and the speed craze struck
them also. When the especial value
of the Hambeltonian and George
Wilkes lines for speed production
breeders resorted to crosses with
them, and the change in breeding
methods AS a result we have the
Morgan situation of today-a few real
Morgans fostered by breeders who
were loyal to breed standards and who
were not carried away by the fashion
of the hour; and very great many
which trace to Justin Morgan and
are registered as Morgans, but are
Morgans only in name.
