the Judicious solution of the brood mnro or marcs depend much UPON tlit success of tlio hot-so Improvement that nmy bo nttnlncd by any farmer or community 6f farmers. The mare Hint will prove Tftlunblo ns producer must bo a regular breeder. Inquiry reveals the fact that about one-third of the mtiros Indiana bred annually Tall to conceive and product a foal. This may bo duo to some disability or diseased condition of the mure to fault of the owner to return her nearly to unwise treatment as rapid driving or strenuous e.xerclHo Immediately after breeding or to Impoteney of the stallion. Some of the causes of the failure of many muron to produce foals may bo removed by wise management on the part of Hio owner and Home of them can bo removed only with the removal of the mare herself.

To be moat highly valuable however the mare must possess moro than merely the ability to produce a foal. She should possess enough breeding to stamp her offspring with a dellnlto type. Her general character should conform to those demanded by the market In detlnlto classed of horses llnvlug The farm mare does her full quota of the work. Her usefulness aw a work animal need bo curtailed but very little by raising a foal. this type should bo mntf with a pure bred stallion of the same type.

Opposite or extreme type" should not bo mated. Topping a thousand pound road- eter mure with a ton draft stallion Is generally unwise The foal will usually develop Into that misfit the general purpose horse by which most of the farm work of the country Is done because this class ban no demand or recognition on the market. The mare having dollnlto type fitting Into a definite market class and mated with a stallion of similar type will produce a foal that when developed should meet the market requirements for that class and for which there will be a greater demand on the market than there will be for foal that a mare of no particular type Is liable to produce under any system of mating. Mating extreme types 1.4 not conducive to the greatest advancement as Is berne out by the fact that line breeding and Inbreeding mating animals of not only the same type and breed but also of the same family have been productive of some of the greatest most marked Improvements that have ever been nindo In the history of live stock breeding. The valuable brood mare furthermore should have soundness and good conformation of feet and legs.

It Is a commonly believed opinion moro or less strongly supported by experience that the mare with feet or legs unsound or of weak or faulty conformation conducing to unsotmduess produces foals more or less subject to llko aflllctlons. Obbervatlon. leads to thcs bellet that Good type of throe-yoar-old draft gelding by a pure bred Perchcron stal lion. Raised and owned by Purdue University School of Agriculture. the stallion can more easily remedy In the foal faulty conformation of body than a serious defect In the feet or legs of the mare.

It may be difficult to have all the mares on the farm sound and faultless In conformation but such should be maintained wherever possible. The mares lacking In potency type soundness and conformation should bo replaced as soon us the means of the owner will permit by potent typy sound mures having good conformation of limb and body. Management Important. The management of the brood mare during pregnancy Is hardly less Important to success than Is her selection. Improper management may lead to abortion or difficult parturition resulting In the death of either foal or mare or both.

It also often causes the foal to be weakly at birtli and to die shortly afterward. Plenty of exercise and abundance of nutritious feed should bo therule. Exercise throughout the period of pregnancy with no rest Immediately previous to foaling keeps the mare. In tone prevents her becoming excessively fat and generally makes parturition mucli more easy with subsequently more rapid recovery and an avoidance of evil after effects in the mare. The work to bo done by the pregnant mare should be wisely directed by the farmer and as the period advances the moro careful should be such direction.

The mare should not bo made to work where she will be subject to slip or strain which may cause accidental abortion. Especially Is this true when she Is heavy with foal. It is wiser to keep her nt light work right up to the tlrao of foaling than to allow her to rest for a month or two previous. Inexperienced breeders sometime make the mistake of laying the mare off a couple of months before foaling time thinking to nllow her opportunity to get Into condition. She should be kept in good condition at nil times by wise feeding and then lopt moving at some light work until the critical period.

It Is a mistake to turn her to pasture or Into a small lot and not work her because she may take Insutllrlont exercise thereby becoming overfat which condition conduces to premature or parturition weakly foals and accompanying evils.
