2O/I- The American Thoroughbred 



California Two farms, one south of the Tehachapi and one north of Red Bluff, 

 both for heavy cavalry horses. 



Arizona Two farms, one for heavy cavalry horses and one for light cavalry nags. 

 New Mexico Two farms, one for light cavalrv horses and one for mules. 



With the experiences of Slavic Europe for a guide in this matter, there should not 

 be much hesitation on the part of our government about going into the thing experi- 

 mentally. The "wild and woolly West" still contains thousands of acres of lands cov- 

 ered with succulent bunch-grass on which thousands of cattle have been pastured in 

 the last forty years and from which the government has derived no revenue whatever. 

 It is pretty nearly time that "Uncle Sam" was coming into his own.
