There are several ways of making a start , Avrites a breeder in Country Gentleman. One can go to the city market , -watch the pales and pick up : : good mare about fifteen and one-half hands and with the general conforma tion of the horse shown in the illus tration from Sanders' "Hove Breed ing" an example oi the French toadi type.

Another way to start , which t' > tiie writer's thinking v.-ouhl 1-e ir.oro i i- ' tcresting , would be pick out a big rangy mare of the trotter type , willa a TVl'K OF KRKNCH COACH JIOJJSE. good deep , capacious body , broad across the loin and deep from 1-in to flank. The back Should Le of moderate length , with broad , deep hind ( ju.ii'tcrs and hips thrown well fo-v , ard : a broad , roomy pelvis and well devel oped mammary glands. The head should be clean cut , with active , up right cars. Dr. .T. C. Curryer sums up these dlfforent points ii : i few wonls : "The character of a Jn'ood mare , both for ' 'constitution , Hwmdness , disposi tion , habits and regular breeder , to gether with motherly inclination1 ? and a good milker , Is an essential feature that no onu versed In the business should overlook. " Now , having Melncted such an ani mal , let us take her to a pure Arabian stallion. The result will be a horse about fifteen and a half to sixteen hands high , weighing about 1.200 pounds , with a fine carriage , plenty of action and Jife , Intelligence' and mod erate speed. When we consider that the famous French coach horse was produced by crossing an Arabian on an English thoroughbred It seems that the cross here suggested should give us Some excellent foundation stock. Ike most promising young stulHons Should be kept ami bred to trotting bred uiflres. While the result would ! )8Vmore or less an experiment I think it would be worth trying , and any ane who succeeds in producing a fine American coach horse should receive a rich reward. \ u Center p ublic opinion is unerring , public confidence s.el- cloni misplaced.
