B. 98 No. 65 Northumberland Continued. The tendency of the sires in Cramabe township is towards the light breeds, there, being six Standard-breds, two Hackneys, two Clydesdales, a Shire and two Percherons. It cannot be said that the average is good, although there are a few horses of nice quality, and the stud fees are not lower than $10 and as high as $15 and $25. The mares here do not scale over 1, 200 Ibs. On the average, and are rather an inferior class. "There is much room for improvement,... " say the Inspectors, and a hesitancy on the part of many farmers to breed their best mares seems to be one of the diffi- culties. Stallion inspection and more education along the lines of systematic breeding are among the suggested means of improvement. There are rather more "heavy sires in Percy and Seymour townships than in the last named, the proportion of heavy to light being about equal. There is considerable unsoundness, however, reported and average quality is not very high. Minimum stud fees are $5 in one case, and the general amount is from $8 to $16.
