Every Stallion in the State of Nebras
ka Must be
It is getting toward the season
of Ihf year when the farmer be
gins fo figure on the number of
horses he must keep for the next
season's work. He is usually
ithtr buying or selling horses ,
"dickering" so that he will be. bet-
tter off than he is now.

'We want to call the attention of
the farmer to the fact that a new
; : ' 'vlatr , enacted at the last session of
the legislature , requires that
very stallion and jack kept for
gale , public service , exchange or
transfer , must be examined by an
' ; 'inspector sent from the office of
the Nebraska stallion registration
board. This board issues a li
cense , to the owner of each stallion '
or jack that passes the inspection
which license is good for one vear.
The State Stallion Inspectors
have , , now covered the state once ,
- but owing to the fact that the
J" Board could not secure the names
. of all the stallion owners they
have .decided to make another trip
over the state. They will be in or
near our town sorteyime during
the winter.
After this second trip through
the state , every stallionxand jack
should have been examined. Be
fore buying or using any animal
kept for pu.blic service , the far
mer should demand to see the li
cence issued by the Stallion Keg-1
istration Board.If such papers
cannot be produced , have nothing
more to do with the animal as he ;
is doubtless refused a license or is !
auch a poor individual that his
, , owner * was afraid to present hirni
for examination.
Rememl er that all stallions that
hav been or will be shipped into
the slate since July 7 , 1911 i and
ali those born info the state' after
that time must b'e absolutely
sound. If you want sound colts ,
know what you are breeding to ,
insist on seeing the license issued
by the Stallion Kegistration Board.
