Previous to the war of the nations

in most things. The difficulty the war

suitable horses the cavalry. transport

convinced the rulers Of the british En-
pire that the old hnphazard scheme
would not answer In future. The Brit
ish Parliament was therefore con-
strained TO accept the 1917 Major Hall
Walkers generous Offer of his entire
thoroughbred stud as the nucleus Of 4
great Imperial Military Horse Breed
ing establishment and to employ Lord
T.ons,lale to manage and race the pro-
duce of that establishment on the
tracks OF Great Britain for purposes
of elimination as the Imperial German
government had employed various
scions Of Gernan royalty TO race the
produce of the national studs of Grad
itz and Trekenncn for thirty-five or
forty years before the outbreak Of
the great war.
The Inunificence OF Major Walkers
gift to his country will he understood
when 1t is realized that his stud had
been taxed on Il valuation of upward
Of $S.0O0,000. Now that the war Is
over Parliament is beginning to appro-
pirate vast sums annually for the
maintenance of this Imperial horse
breeding establishment after the man.

ductiOn of quantities of horses of thor
oughbred, hree-1uarterbrcd and half

pairing to give direct support to the

eight years prior to 1914, and which
supplied the Canadian and British
forces with thousands of splendid half
