HOKSES AT THE ^^KW YoKK StATE FaiR 



201 



Since the automobile came into general use, walking is rapidly 

 becoming a lost art in the cities. The saddle horse has been 

 found to be the ideal instrument to give the torpid liver a shak- 

 ing up, and to force the lungs to inhale the necessary amount of 

 fresh air to supply the system with its needs. 



Saddle horses are in active demand and at good prices, and it 

 seems as though it would be a wise act on the part of the State 

 Fair management to give the saddle horse a place when arrang- 

 ing the classes for the next fair. 



PEKCHEROX 



In the Percheron classes the outstanding individuals were 

 found in : Merau, a two-year-old stallion of surpassing excellence 

 showm by Adirondack farms, winner in his age class and also in 

 the Champion class ; Mouche, a two-year-old mare from the 

 same farm that won first in her age class and championship ; 

 Incidentei', winner of the first in the class for three-year-old 

 stallions from Heart's Delight Farm, and Coquette of Heart's 

 Deliffht, who won first in the class for three-vear-old mares for 

 the same farm.
