150 HORSE BREEDING. 



yet as being closely connected with its ultimate success, inas- 

 much as no business as a rule — horse-breeding included — can 

 be made a crowning success without strict attention to business 

 and constant hard work. 



One great reason why many breeders are unsuccessful in 

 the horse business is the fact of their not conforming to the 

 demands of the market ; if they happen to get started wrong 

 — which is a very easy matter — instead of closing out and 

 starting again, they keep on trying to convince themselves, and 

 everybody else, that they are right. This kind of business 

 rarely, if ever, leads to success. If one starts wrong the 

 cheapest way to get out is to sell out and begin anew.
