Horsemen Develop Cream Colored Horses As
New Stock Type Capable Intensive Training
BY DON ROBERTS
Los Angeles — (NEA) — After
years of experimental breeding, the
California stock horse, or Palami
no, has arrived as a type and :
is being shown as such with the j
view of establishing a stud book
entirely for the breed.
At recent shows here, and in cir
cuit shows forthcoming at Palo
Alto, Sacramento and throughout
the state, the Palamino is a center ;
of interest among stockmen.
Even lay observers are struck by
the distinctive beauty of the horse,
which derives its name from the
flashing cream color that is char- !
acteristic. Palamino is Spanish
for “cream.”
Breeding toward the type has
been carried on in California and
Oregon for many years, but it is
only recently that experimenters |
have reached the point where re- ;
production of Palaminos is near a
certainty. Originally an oddity
among the wild horses that roamed
the western plains, the horse was
developed for an exact purpose in
the far-western stock business.
Marco H. Heilman, of Los An
geles, and other wealthy men in
terested in stock breeding, have
confined their efforts for some
years toward the production of the ;
Palamino and are now confident of
success. The designation Palamino
refers tc color only, Heilman points
out, and should not be confused
with the breed, Stock Horse.
With an ancestry traceable to
Arabian and Barb blood imported
in early Spanish days, the horse
has been developed until it pos
sesses a style and quality all its
own, Heilman says.
“There is no pleasure horse
which equals the Palamino for
safety, weight carrying and de- ;
pendabilityHeilman points out. h
IOWA UWUIO
TAKEN FOR RIDE
Farmers Reducing Flocks
Sharply as Egg Produc
tion Falls Off, Report
Ames, la. — If egg production
isn’t going to pay well, then Iowa
poultry keepers evidently don’t in
tend to produce so many eggs and
many hens have "been taken for a
ride” since June.
The above situation is indicated
in the reports of the poultry calen- !
dar flocks in Iowa, issued at Iowa j
State college. The July report, just
cut, shows the average size of the
laying flocks to be only 138 birds, j
contrasted with 183 in June, a de
crease of 45 hens per flock.
Another trend noted in the re
ports—in all probability caused by
the extremely hot weather of July,
as compared with June—is the de
creased egg production per hen, de
spite heavy culling. The poultry
calendar flocks averaged only 12.2
eggs in July, compared with 14.4 in
June. In July a year ago the flocks
on which records were kept aver
aged 13.7 eggs per hen.

7 cents a hen less, above the total
expense, than in June. The June
return was 19 cents per bird above
total expenses and in July only 12
cents.
The 10 highest producing flocks
averaged 17 eggs per hen in July
and the 10 lowest flocks 6.3. In re
ceipts above feed cost, however, the
high producing flocks made a trifle
less profit than the low producers.
Legge Says Farmer
Is Wiiiing to Cut
His Wheat Acreage
BY FRANK I. WELLER,
Associated Press Farm Editor.
Washington— —The Ameri
can wheat farmer, says Chairman
Legge of the federal Farm board, is
through with fantastic visions of
"relief” and is ready to shoulder
his share of responsibility in effect
ing economic adjustment.
This impression, he says, was
gained by personal contact with
iarmers during his tour of the win
ter wheat belt. '
As proof of the farmer’s attitude,
the chairman says acreage reduc
tion has been pledged in all states
of t>he winter wheat belt where
association this season, Fred B.
Willrctt, county agent, reported.
Fields which were planted with
pure seed include Ceres, Mlndum
and Hope wheat; Velvet barley;
fogold oats; Bison and Buda flax
md Cossack and Grimm alfalfa.
More than 300 acres of Ceres
wheat was inspected and the yields
being obtained indicate that Ceres

aid. Flax inspected include 192 acres
sf Bison and 116 of Buda.
The acreage af small grain, al
falfa and flax inspected this year
would have bean materially larger
tensive training necessary to ms
education and perfection.”
The difficulties in reproducing
the exact Palamino were many, be
cause no breed ever had cream
colored offspring except inciden
tally. There are several bands of
the true Palaminos at present,
however, among them a fine group
owned by Heilman.
‘‘In these the tendency toward
ether coloring has been almost
eliminated,” Heilman asserts. “It
is within the bounds of reason
that within a few years a stud
bock may be established to perpet
uate this particular color of the
Stock Horse breed.”
farmers, following the lead of those
. in the spring wheat region, already
| are bringing the 1931 acreage more
nearly in line w'ith the 10-year
prospective demand for wheat.
It is not the farmer, Legge says,
who talks about the board taking
vast quantities of wheat and dump
1 ing it in the ocean or giving it to
China or selling it at a loss to
; European countries merely for the
sake of getting it out of this
country.
The chairman says the beard has
discussed at length the probability
of selling American wheat to the
Chinese nationalist government on
a deferred payment plan, and has
given up the idea. It has concluded
that China offers no promising
prospects as an outlet for American
wheat.
Nailing the theory that the board
might “give” surplus wheat to
China, Legge says the “board is not
i in the gift business.”
Anti-dumping laws in foreign
countries, he says, would prevent
the operation of any kind of plan
1 to sell wheat abroad cheaper than
: it sells on the American markets.
As for schemes epitomized by the
one to dump wheat in the ocean,
| Legge says such action by the board
not only would conflict with the
agricultural marketing act, but
would cause farmers to make a bad
situation worse by increasing pro
duction.
if price and weather conditions had
been more favorable, the county
agent explained. He said the in
spected fields would help, however,
to fill the demand for certified seed
next spring.
