Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Horse: Its Keep Management
There is a chapter on breeding - stating how many valuable mares are practically lost when they get to a certain age, or, in other words, how many good mares are sold for a tri?e, which, with very little trouble and forethought, might be sent to some farmer in the country and bred from. This can easily be done. In some instances a colt can be reared for from 35 to 40 up to when it is four years old, and if from an extraordinarily good mare it sometimes turns out worth from 70 to 100.
