HORSE BREEDING IN NEW ZEALAND.

The questions of licensing and taxing stallions, and of examining stud stook, have been bofore the country for some years, but op bo thn prsaant have not a«eumed definite Bhapo. Variout suggestions have been made an to the maonar in which it should be done, bub none of » prac^oal nature. At the Sate conference of Agricultural Societies, in Wellington, several delegates advocated a tax of £2 a year. 0 hers agun advocated an examination of stallions by th» Agricul tural Department, and issuing certificates of ■oundness only. It is obvious that some oheck mutt be pltioed npon the growing evil of breeding from unsound horeee, which is managing to the future stock of horaes in this cmmtry. Thab cheok oan only bo obtained successfully by legislation; It is undoubted iy t.he duty of the State to protect aad improve, if posiib'e, tha braed of horeeß. legislation should be first in tho direction of compelling all owners of brooding stock, •f both sexes, to submit them for examina tlon by properly qualified officers:, I observed that is the whole of the disoßiMon ou this subject, it has been the horse only that it was proposed to examine and license. If the sam« examination were not applied to the mares alao, it would be a farce and usaless. The fact is notorious that offspring as a rule reieat more of tho female than the male parent, and unless auch examination is to be applied to both animals it deserves nothing but condemnation. A substantial license fe« should then be required from every owner of a Bullion after ha attains ft certain age (say two years). Thio wou'd give the j owner of a colt time to see whether it would ! be good enough to be kept entire. The gnggasted license f«e of £2 or £5 ia absurd, and would rather aggravate the present evil. If a ti*x 1« to ba imposed, and is to have the desired effect, it must not bo leas thau £20 or £25. And id should bo imposed without »ny distinction between horses that are travelled and those thab are not, or the owner of the latter would have an unfair handicap in his favour. AH imported stnd stock should poesens certificates of soundness before being landed, and in the evenb of failure to pa 1?* tho examination should not be aeed for stud purposes. A small annual fee of inspection. Bay 5% could be charged after a horse or mare had been duly licensed, to oorsr the coat of subsequent examinations. I am sum that those who own entires would welcome such a tax as I have recom mended. Probably thu half or more of the entires at present -n the country, if they were placed in tha spleyaH, would not fetch the amount of the license fee, and such a tax would act as the best deterrent against the inare*se of scrubbers. Encouragement and inducement would then be offered bo any one who wlßhad to embark in the business, in the hope of obtaining a fair return for the outhy. Thry could feel certainiben that what compe tition they bad to meeb would bo from good horses and nob scrubbers. They could then charge a fair remunerative price for services, and careless breeders when they oould nob obbain a cheap scrubber would be o'impoUed to pay for a good horse. The question will naturally be asked, Wlnt is to become of the license fee 1 My idea

jb that after dedncting the cost !of exami nabioQß, etc., the balance should be handed over to the Agricultural Societies in the various districts in which the horses are located, to be returned as premiums and pr zea at shows among horses only. What an incentive thtß would give to ihe people -to patronise the shows by increasing the entries; not only would the breeders and owners of horses gain by the tax, but the Agricultural Associations would advance in a manner hitherto undreamt of The money bo raised could with justice be olaimed for distribution io pn'z-s among the horse classes only, and not a farth ing of it to be devoted to any otheri Nor should any part of it be allowed to find its way into the consolidated fund of the colony. It should ba used wholly and solely for the enoouragemenfc of horse breeding. Ifc would be a great incentive to anyone with capital to know that with a good horse they would have the opportunity of securing a £100 premium or a substantial amount of pr'za m'i>ey. The agricultural Booleties cannot divest themselves of bhme for the inferior state of horseftasb, aa they offer pract:o»lly no indacemeat to anyone fco go to the trouble and expense of exhibiting, when all they could expect to get) in return if they were fortunate enough to seoura a first priz% would be a paltry couple of pouudst, after paying out half as much to enler. In striking contrast is the proportion of pr Z3 money and entrance fees in other olaeies of stuck, Buch as sheep, piga, dogs,

etc. The improvement of horse breeding should be more energetically Attended to by agricultural aochties, as they are the only recognised authority having anything like control over it at present It is imperative ou those aocietiea to take the matter up at once and insißt on some radical reformation, It ia undeniable that horsea are the chief feature of our agricultural shows. The societies should first increase their przs money by making It more eommenanrafn with the amount of trouble entailed, and then derotd their attention to the purging of hereditary ucaoandness, a most important step. The delegates at the late Con feranoe were loud in their condemnation of breeding unsound horses, and asked for assistance from the Agricultural Depart ment in •tamping it out, by sending round •Xpert* to examine stallions. At the same time, when tha question of prohibiting unsound horses from being shown was die. cussed,, great lamentations were heard ali round, aa it waa argued that the entries would bo reduced considerably, and conaeqaently the takings would fall correspondingly. That admission is import ant as it goes to show that the societies recognise the valut of horaea in making up &a agricultural »how. Bub I wonder at a body of intelligent men entertaining for one moisent such mercenary ideas. Apparently, according to the report of their proceedings, tome of the delegates did not oare whether the horses were sound or nob, m long as it) did not interfere with tbeir receipts, and the discussion was evidently carried out mora on the linen of £a. d. than that of iound horses', Caa the societies not see tt at by allowing unsound horses tobeshowQ, and by giving prizes to them, th?y are actually •noouraging and assisting in the spread of the •Til they are complaining of ? They ask the Agricultural Department to do that which they are able, bub not inclined to do jihem selves. If they are sincere and mean business why do they not put their foot down and refuse to allow unsound horses to be exhibited ? This should be the first step to be oaken, to wipa out unsoundnese. Then the Department could materially assist by sending experts round the colony to examine entires and mares intended for the show, as to their fitness for the purposes required. The persons best qualified bo undertake the duties of examiners or judges would be men of known ability* who have had praotical experience among the different stamps of hors«t, and who would be better able to know what the requirements of the country demand than veterinary Burgeons, I have nothing to s&y against these professional gentlemen whatever, bub I contend that they are nob the best man obtainable for seleotfng «nd classifying the different stamps of horses. CTh?y would, I am afraid, ba too ready to look at them from ft professional, and not from a practical, point of view. What I would sug gest as the beßt mode of carrying out these examinations would be for the Government to seloot different seta of three examiners, two practical laymen and the third a pro fessional man, if it waa thought that the

presence of a veterinary surgeon waa neces sary. I believe that such a eyatem ia in foroe in Queensland, and is oarried out by three judge*. The judging would be practically carried out by the two laymen, but in case of dispute the third should decide. I think such an arrangement would be satisfactory to all concerned, and would be

the meam of inspiring confidence among breeders generaliy; Suggostions have also baen made that the Government ehonld ■übsidits the breeding cf horses, provide •noriei »b a fee of £2, and purchase any progeny which were found suitable for remounts s.t a ixed prioe. If this scheme

wore carried out it would be the means of checking private enterprise. Why should th» Government subsidise horca breeding rather than any other industry 1 Every other basineia ia the country would tken be quite justified la claiming Government assistance. If the Government intend embarking in horse breeding it> tbould only be oo the fines I h*r« prerieaaly iscHcatecl, namely, by th«
