FOUR
Farmers Urged
To Raise Horses
Large Sums Of Money Being
Spent Out Of The
State Each Year For
Farm Stock, According
To Specialist
North Carolina farms will always
have need for horses and
mules, says Prof. Earl H. Hostetler,
of N. C. State College.
"Landowners who bred their

ale for the workstock not needed
at home," he points out.
"Last year. North Carolina paid
at least $1,000,000 outside the
State for mules which could have
been produced more cheaply at
home.
"This runs up a needless expense
and also deprives our far?ers
of the money they might
have gotten from the sale of

home-raised work animals."
The average farm mare can
produce a colt each year and
still do about as much work as
I the other stock, said Prof. Hos!
tetler, who has charge of live1
stock research work at the N. C.
j experiment station.
If the mares are bred so that
the colts will be dropped in the
early spring, a two-week vacation
at foaling time is enough
| time off from their regular work.
| Both the mare and colt will be
! in better health if the mare coni
tinues to work, he said. However,
i the colt should be allowed to
: nurse in the morning and in the
afternoon during the first few
I weeks.
I "Take good care of your work I
animals," he added. "Heat pros- j
j trations can be prevented by al- j
lowing the stock to drink regu-,
J larly through the day and by i
[keeping plenty of salt in the
stalls of pastures.
"A good pasture, with plenty
of salt, will reduce the feed bill,
tone up the animals' health, and
