PAGE EIGHTY Co ere nme) ARMY PROMOTES HORSE BREEDING Farmers and Stockmen of the Country Are Encouraged to Raise Better Stock. \ PLAN PROVES BIG SUCCESS Government’s Breeding Service for 1921 to Be Tripled—Congress Ap- propriated $250,000 for the Work— Prominent Breeders Volunteer Services. Washington.—Such great progress | has been made in the United States; army's new project for encouraging breeding of horses among the farmers | and stockmen of the country that plans are now under way to triple the government's breeding service for 1921. Congress has appropriated $250,000 for the work. According to an announcement made by Maj. Gen. P. C. Harris, the adju- tant general of the army, there have been bred this season about one thou- sand mares belonging to civilians and to the government in different sections BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE TUESDAY, NOV. 30, 1920 -ginia and Ohio, ville, Ky. | North central states—Indiana, Ul- nois, Iowa, Missouri, Michigan, Wis- consin, Minnesota, North ; South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas and | Colorado, Headquarters, Kansas City, Mo. | South central states—Mississippl, | Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Tex- as, and New Mexico, Headquarters, Oklahoma City, Okla.

They are always carefully inspected by the officer in charge of the district and by the vet- erinarian before’ being sent out for breeding by the local agent. Stud fees will be charged for all stallions, and this fee, by order, is to be the same as the local (fee usually charged for privately-owned stallions. But the army's finest types of sires will be at the service of local breeders at what {s practically a nominal fee, when it 1s considered that owners of some of the best blue ribbon horse- flesh in the country charge from $100 to $1,000 without a guarantee. The local agent will assist in select- ing the mares to be bred. These an- of the United States. These mares may generally’ be divided into two classes: First, a well-bred type of rid- ing animal ranging from 1,000 to 1,150 pounds in weight. Second, a rather drafty type of active mare showing a lot of ‘quality, with good neck and shoulders, weighing from 1,150 to 1,- 300 pounds. The mares at Front Royal, Va., come generally under the | first class, many of them being half- bred or standard-bred mares. At the | other three army |depots the active | draft type of ‘mare predominates. The breeding committee of the Amer- ican Remount association, made up of some of the midst prominent horsemen and breetiérs' ‘iri thé: ‘country, has en- tered enthusiastically into the army's ambitious program fot the improve- ment of American horseflesh, and all have volunteered their services to help and advise in any manner pogsible. Success Assured. The army remount service now has on hand 45 thoroughbred stallions and two Arab stallions, all donated by or through the influence of the American Remount association. ‘These have ‘as- sured: the success of the propoged breeding plan. The secretary of war has been au- thorized by congress to accept such donations of animals inorder to en- courage the breeding of riding horses eultable for army use. The} quarter- master general has been designated to represent the secretary of war in! tak- ing over these stallions and in accept- ing money. to be used as. prizes or awards at state and county fairs, agri- cultura] exhibitions and horse shows. For the 1921 season. there are al- ready many applications for, stallions to .be bred under the army's new scheme, received from a number of very reliable persons. From 100 to150 stallions can be placed to great ad- vantage for next year. For this the army Is very anxious to gain the co- operation of farmers and stockmen generally, and to this end will estab- ; sh governmental breeding centers in | such localities as conditions warrant. The army requirements are threefold: | First—These breeding centers must ! be located in places where there are a , sufficient number of suitable mares for | raising riding. horses which may be! used ag a source of cavairy-and artil- | ery mounts. These mares must be ac- tive and well built, and should range | between 1,000 and 1,250 pounds in weight. Second—Farmers, horse owners and | stockmen of the locality must ind!- cate a desire to breed light horses, be- | cause the stallions! are not intended to serve heavy draft mares. Third—For making any locality an army-breeding center''there should be general interest In) horse raising j throughout the community, not only | among horsemen alone, but the farm- | ers generally. Insist on Local Interest. In all the centers established, and those to be establisited, the War de- partment insists that there be local fn: terest In horse raising, and to help | out in the plan, government stallions, imals should be of such type and con- formation that good results shall be secured, and they should be of good disposition, and sound. If after in- spection the mare is considered suit- able, the owner will receive a certifi- cate of suitability. ‘The ‘offspring Is the property of the owner of the mare, and can be dis- posed of in_any manner and at apy time that the owner sees fit. The government has no lien on the get. | In order, however, to encourage breed- erg and establish a horse market in every breeding center, the government, whenever horses are required to be purchased for the army, will inspect and buy such offspring in each center as army need ‘requires, provided that the animals are up to military specifi- cations. Suitable, clean, well-ventilated sta- bles for the stallions are necessary in every breeding center. Forage will be furvished by the government, either by shipment or by local purchasa, Agent in Charge. After all ‘arrangements have been mide, the stallions assigned to the local breeding center will be sent out and turned over to the agent. He is responsible for the aniinals, and for their actual breeding to approved mares. He is also charged with bring- ing in the mares for breeding, or send- ing out the stallions on the road. At the beginning of the season stallions are to be sent to breeding centers in such numbers as to care for all the mares in the locality that are suitable. Stable facilities will be provided by the government for all stallions when not on the road. rf As.a.result of this new plan the army expects to breed several. fine types of horses which should have good markets. These are: Hunters. for civillan.use; polo ponies ;. park riding mounts; army ‘horses; officers’ charg- ers, and fine farm horses. The army remount officers will give advice, to all farmers and stockmen where they request It. Prizes will be offered at state and county fairs for the best colts/ sired by government stallions... Some of these latter an- imalg are very valuable. ‘For example, the government owns and offers for the use of farmers and stockmen the celebrated stallion Danger Rock, by the famous Rock, Sand out of Delusion; and Swing Loose by Broomstick out of Courage. The get of some of the government stallions are being held at very ‘high prices. For instance, Down East! by Yankee, and Silver Crest by Black Du could not be bought for $10,000 each.. Many youngsters bred from government stock have been gold from $1,000 to $5,000 each. Vocational Schools. With so much breeding activity in the army, it has been necessary to es- tablish. vocational schools for soldiers who are fond of animals, and who wish to learn how to handle and care for them. pational training to select the various | courses in army schools which pertain to breeding and animal husbandry. There are special courses at Camp IRISH ARRESTS Dakota, | | BISMARCK GRAIN (Furnished by jRussell-Miller Co.) : Bismarck, Nov. No. 1 dark northern .. No, 1 amber durum No. 1 mixed durum ...
