Iowa has more dollars invested in
horses than any other state in the
union. We must maintain that rec
ord and continue to be the leading
state in horse production"
The horses of Iowa far surpasses
In value all the other classes of live
stock put together. including cattle,
sheep and hogs. We fail to realize
the Importance of the horse breeding
industry in this state"
These two statements are repre-
sentative OF many made at the meet
ing of the Iowa Draft Horse Breed
ers' association, held at Iowa State
College.
The stallion and jack law which
has been in effect but one year was
the entire topic for discussion for
the afternoon meeting Senator A. L.
Ames of Traer, the man who drafted
the law, led the discussion A. r.
Corey, state secretary of agriculture
told something of the working of the
law, reporting that more than 5000
stations We're registered with high
Is found in any other state. Over so
per cent. of Iowa's stations have pure
blood and have their names on some
stud book
Or. Button of Cresco reported his
observance of the working of the law
and offered some suggestions where
he thinks the law should be changed
He would include side bone in the
list of disqualifcations. He believes
that the predisposition is without
doubt hereditary and SO the law
should protect farmers from breeding
side bones. He cited the fact that
both Minnesota and Wisconsin dis
qualify stations with side bones. To
protect Iowa from being dumping
ground for the stations from these
states. DR.. Button believes a ban
should be placed on such horses in
this state
Prof w. j. Kennedy gave his ideas
of the law and suggested that every
stallion brought from another state
a certificate of soundness as we'll as
the one OF health which is already re-
CURED.
In an impromptu discussion which
followed, the law was hashed over
from A to z. At first it seemed as if
10 two persons had exactly the same
opinion of all the sections of the law
Almost everyone agreed that the law
was benefit to the state and nearly
I'll agreed that there should be some

A committee. with the discussions
Audubon County journal. (Exira, Iowa) 1884-1993, 1914-03-05

OF the afternoon in mind drafted q
set OF resolutions which was present
ed and passed at the business meet
ing Of the evening In short, these
resolutions embodied the following:
Ring bone was taken from the list of
unsoundness to be advertised and
placed in the list of Disqualification.
Bog SPAWN was taken from among the
disqualifications and placed in the
other list At present the keeper or
owner may make his own examine
ton for unsoundness and get certth-
cate on his own affidavit. The reso-
luton recommends that only qualified
veterinarians be employed to examine
a stallion for registration as sound or
unsound
Again any stallion or jack brought
into Iowa from another state shall
have been passed as sound by vet
erinarian appointed either by the
state veterinarian from which state
the animal comes or by the bureau OF
animal industry at Washington. Stall
lions brought from foreign countries
must be examined and registered be-
fore they may be used or sold.
Another recommendation is that
any stallion six years old or over and
having been passed as sound for two
consecutive years shall at the time Of
the second examination be granted a
certificate of permanent soundness.
The last measure many believe will
prove an encouragement to men who
want to buy valuable horses as sires
but are fraid of taking the risk OF
having them rendered unsound and
ruled out by some accident. The fact
was pointed out that some of the best
sires Iowa ever had became unsound
in their later years and would be
ruled out under the present law,
whereas the defect may be due to ac-
cident or unusual strain and would in
no way be transmissable from parent
to offspring
1t is difficult to tell how many Of
these recommendations will get
through the Legislature, but the gen.
eral sentiment among those in at
tendance at the meeting seemed to be
that the above changes would be q
decided improvement from the stand
points OF both the farmer-breeder and
the stallion owner.

Bar Association that IL five years
from 1909 to 1913 inclusive, Congress

thousands of laws were in force before
