The aentlment f«jr thin has grown rap idly during the past year, and auch classes have been added to the pre mium lifts of fairs in Iowa and Ken tucky. stan-* from which large num- l*ers of American carriage horses are marketed. On their own initiative the Iowa state fair held at Dts Moines, the Kentucky state fair at Louisville and the nine (Jrass fair nt Lexington, Ky.. have offered prizes for American carriage lorsos for the season of litU”. A uniform classification has been made iscssihle by n co-operative ar- rangetueut between the national bu- ’ resin of animal industry and the Ameri can Arsoclati>n of Ti i^ng Horse; Itreeders. The classification was work- ■ cd out l»y the committee on heavy har- j liras horses of the association. A cordial reception of the classifies- ; tion !»;•'. the hon-e press and managers pf fairs Is reported. Among the carl! j est to adopt the cla*lfieaUon for ltd” were 1 lie interstate fair lu^l in Kan . ras City and the Kansas state fair j held in Hutchinson. Farmers Brcsd Lie Carriage Horses. The adoption of the classification by , state fairs is especially urged by those j interested in it for the reason that the state fairs are in the closest touch with farmers, that the farmers ere the breeders of most of the carriage hon-cs told‘bn the American markets and that the value of the American horse for carriage purposes is rarely appreciated by the farmers who breed them. Hun dreds horses are sol.I annually by farmers nt really Insignificant prices j which after some months of l nishiug i and handling are sold as carnage Loire-; at prices up Into the thousands. Furthermore, there is a continual sal. of stauions to supply this trade. These horses are usually of only moderate value ns rpeed producers, but are of excellent cnrrloge type. If kept entire and properly mated they could be of inestimable value rs foundation sires of the American carriage horse. when the farnt -rs appreciate the In trinsic value of the native light horsi' for carriage purposes and recognize the ixortb of the stallion with good conformation and quality, but only moderate sih-*-.!, sis a sire of enrringe horses the problem of fixing the tyi>e will be one of early solution.
