BREEDING THE TROTTER 



THE FARM SUPERINTENDENT. 



Now, unless you are a practical horseman, or 

 even if you once were a horseman and your knowl- 

 edge of horses has been lying dormant for years 

 while you were accumulating a share of the world's 

 goods, the next thing for you to do will be to select 

 your farm superintendent. 



You will be besieged with applications for the 

 position and you may gain the mistaken idea that 

 a competent superintendent is easy to secure. 

 The contrary is the case, which you will see by 

 studying the superintendent's requirements, as 

 set forth in detail in the chapter on " Manage- 

 ment of Stock Farms." 



A farm that has been laid out as directed will 

 come close to being an ideal one. Naturally, 

 there are minor details which can best be left to 

 the owner's good judgment.
