Maees Bred to Diffeeent Classes of Stallions. 



The public meeting for Grenville county was held at Kemptville ou 

 October 25tli. The thirty or more persons present were practically all per- 

 sonally interested in horse breeding, and the discussions of the various 

 questions were very good. The following resolution was moved and sec- 

 onded, and received nearly the unanimous support of those present: "That 

 all stallions standing for service should be registered as sound, and of good 

 conformation after having passed a rigid inspection." 



Leeds. 



Only one pure-bred stallion, an imported Clydesdale, was seen in 

 Elizabethtown township. The rest were grades of Clydesdale, Shire, Per- 

 cheron, and Eoadster blood, one each of the first three and two of the last. 

 None of them are good, and three only of the six are sound. Under the 

 circumstances, the fees of $8 in one case and $10 in the others are fairly 

 good. 



The township of Bear of Touge is a very poor section, and the horses 

 are equally so. There is only one stallion here, a grade Percheron, sound, 

 which stands for a fee of |8. In the township of Front of Tonge, there is, 

 besides one not inspected, also a grade sire of Roadster breeding, and for 

 which a very small fee is charged.
