Show FINE HORSES EXHIBITED AT COVE SHOW Dr. W. E. Carroll ' Judged The Collection from Sur-I Sur-I rounding Communities. About 125 head of fine horses were on exhibit at the Cove church grounds Saturday, May 21 (according (accord-ing to R. L. Wrigley, county agricultural agri-cultural agent. This was the third show sponsored by the elders' quorum of Cove ward. Dr. W. E. Carrol, Dean of Agri- culture, Utah State Agricultural College, did the judging and pronounced pro-nounced it a very good collection of animals. Horses were exhibited from Preston and Franklin Idaho, and Cove, Richmond and Lewiston Utah. This show has a chance to develop into a real exhibit and should be the means of stimulating stimulat-ing interest in breeding of a better bet-ter class of horses. There were present some very good draft horses as well as light horses. There was a. very notable improvement im-provement and uniformity among the light horses but not so much I among the heavier breeds. It would be a splendid thing if the farmers of Cache County could settle on three or four good individual in-dividual stallions of the sairrje draft breed and then sticK witn inem. The horses we breed then would be good and at the same time ; uniform. We are not in the horse breeding breed-ing business but what we raise , should be of the kind that can do farm work best and when sold jwill bring the highest price on the market, says Mr. Wrigley. That will mean size, quality, soundness sound-ness and uniformity which will I come as a result of carefully I selected sires of the same breed- ,ing. |
