Reports have been received from about ten thousand cor respondents of the Bureau of Statistics of the Department of Agriculture upon the cost of raising colts on farms to the age of three years. The average for the United States is found to be $lO4 0(5: or, if we deduct the value of work done by the horse before he has passed his third year, namely $7.52, the net cost is $96.54; this is 70.9 per cent of selling value of such horses, $13(5.17. The cost varies widely by j States, from an average of jof $69.50 for New Mexico, ' $71.59 for Wyoming, and $82.47 for Texas, to $156.60 for Rhode Island, $149.98 for Connecticut, and $141.80 for Massachusetts. Itemized, the cost i 3 made up as follows: Service fee, $12.95; value of time lost by mare in foaling, | $10.06; breaking to halter. $2.22; ! veterinary service, $204; care and shelter, first year $4.95, second year $5.36, third year $6.35; cost of grain fed, first year $4.98, second year $7.14, third year $9.56; hay, first year $414, second year $6,61, third year $8.48; pasture, first year $2.56, second year $5.41, third year $6 21; other costs, $3.01; total $104.06. The total cost for all feed is $56.30, being $21.63 for grain, $19.23 for hay, $l4 18 for pasture, and $1.21 for other feeds. The total cost of care and shelter is $16.69. Of the total cost, 54 per cent is charged to feeds, 16 per cent to care and shelter, and 30 per cent to other items as enumerated above. As more than half the cost of raising a three-year old horse on the farm is chargeable to feeds, it is readily observed how important is the influence Sprin?
