The Celebrated Draft Horse,

““SCOTSMAN"’

(Owned by the Ligonier‘ﬁive Stock “Association, r ~Ligonier, Indiana.) , "

. SCOTSMAN i abright bay, with strip in the face, and six. years old; was bred by Mr. Ray, of Hazelfield, Castle Douglass, Scotland. X His sire is Mr. Mure’s “Champion of Lochfergus.” One of “Champion’s” colts was imported to Australig, and thence to New Zealand, at very high figures. “Champion” was got by the famous horse “Glancer,” the property of the late Robert Anderson, Esq;, of Dunmore. “Glancer” was the sire to “Victor,” “Blacklock,” “Prince Charles,” and many other valuable horses. -ScoTSMAN’s dam: was Mr. Ray’s celebrated pure bred Clydesdale mare, which has been so successful in the prize ring at all the. local and open shows too numerous to mention, and is cons®lered - one of the best brood mares in Scotland. -

ScOESMAN, when two- years “old, gained third prize at Perth, Highland, Society show; when three years old, the £6O prize at Falkirk; when four years old, the higher prize of £BO, and when five years old, the Northumberland prémium of £lOO. He has also gained Several valuable prizes since his arriyal in this country in competition with twenty-five and upwards of other imported horses.. He is of one of the best prize-taking families. of Europe. | : ScoTsMAN was purchased by me of Peter “Crawford, of Drumgoyack, Strathblane, Scotland, and 'shipped on board the State Line Steamship “State of Indiana,” on Friday, the 7th day of August, 1875, at the port of Glasgow, and landed at New York on the 18th of the same month, and since sold to C. Palmiter and others, of the Live Stock Association ¢f Ligonier, Ind., on the 10th of April, 1876. I hereby certertify that the above Pedigree and statement-of the above named horse, .is correct. - o ¢ K [ T..G. DUNCAN.

Donald Dinnie, 24,

(Owned by a part of the Ligonier Live Stock As- . " sociation.) - - ;

. Foaled in October, 1873 ; bred by the late Mr. Douglass, ot Lockhead, Dunfermline, Scotland: imported by Powell Bro’s. in December, 1874.

" He is a clear bright bay, with white strip in face, two white stockings, also left fore ankle white; he is 16 hands high, and weighs about 1,600 pounds. This colt, although, appearing low, strong and muscular, rather than leggy and airy, has the most wonderful trotting action we ever saw in any draft horse, which, together with his muscular power, excellent bone and great promise, make him one of the best, if not the very best colt of his age, for his purpose, in America. Mr. James Drummond, of Dunfermline, Scotland, who owned both this colt ‘and his sire, Donald Dinnie, (afterward sold for $5,000) pronounced him 1 no way inferior, and in some respects superior, to his sire. He is, as yet, of course, immature, but is developing rapidly, and will make a large and powerful, yet smooth and finishedhorse: i clulng s Sidivaam s o

He was sired by “Donald Dinnie,” who gained the £5O ($250) prize and medal, at Sterling in 1872, and was then' sold to go to Canada, where he was exhibited six times, and beat all of the imported horses of every age and of all classes, and \was sold at-pub-liec auction for $5,000 gold, which is said to be the highest price ever given for any draft horse in /America. He was exhibited at the! Illinois State Fair in 1875, where heigained the first premium and sweepstakes, over the largest field of draft horses evershown in this country. t B - Donald Dinnie was \sired by Mr, Bearyard’s “Glasgow Horse,” who was sold at a_ large price and taken ‘to Australia, = Vil iy DonaldiDinnie’s grandgire was Mr. David Riddell’s (Killbay, Glasgow, Scotland,) “ Black Campsie,” who, ‘when in the possession of Mr. R. gain‘ed the following prizes: | The first premium at the Highland Society Show, at Kelso; and the first for two years in succession, at Glasgow; also the first of the Perth, Fife and Kinross Associations, as -well as numerous others, ' ‘ it

Donald Dinnie’s dam, (the dasp also of the Duke of Edinburgh, No. 1,) was the famous Davidson mare, the winner of many prizes, and was purck}?sed by the Duke of Northumberland for breeding at his home farm, at Alnwick 'Castle, for £ll7 ($586,) when she was over eighteen years of age; she was bred by Mr. Davidson, of Outchester,and was sired by “Hall’s Clyde,” that wasgsold at the Glasgow Show, in 1851, for a long price,; . ¢Hall's Clyde,” was sired by the “Bent Horse,” who took many first prizes; also the sire of- many prize takers. T airea it :

- The Davidson Mare’s dam, was by “old Wonder;” he by “Farmer’s Glory,” and he by “Nobler.”! il “old Wonder” gained the following prizes: In 1864, a valuable piece of plate, donated by Sir Edmund Antrobus, for the best cart horse, at Croyden; he also won six firgt prizes, at the Northumberland Agricultural Society Show; his full brother was sold to the Grand Duke of Baden in 18G4, at a high price. _ '. - “oOld Wonder” was the sire.of “Topsman,” owned by Alexander Gilbrath, of Cory, Cunningham, and who won in 1872, the Aberdeen Society’s prize of £4O ($200); the Alloway Society’s prize of £7O ($850,) in 1873 ; the same again in 1874,—£70 ($350); and in 1875, the first prize at Glasgow, of £lOO ($500,) and the first prize at the Highland Society’s Show, at Sterling; as well as many otrﬁr prizes. The Davidson Mare's grand:dam was by “Young Star;’ he by #Old Star;”-he by “Farmer’s Delight;” he by “Cooley's Clyde,” and he by #QOld Bgzdkwell. all of whom were great prize takers,.’ ; L b ‘The “Yafd Bent Horse” was gired by ¥Barr’s Clyde,” who was the sire of “Sir Walter Scott;” he the sire of “General,” -the sire of “Prince of Wiales,” ect, : e ,lD_onald Dinnie, 2d’s dam, bred and raised by Mr. ?riqdell, of Dunfermline; & fing dark bay mare, and & sucs

cessful prize taker; was sired by “Furtheringham’s Clyde;” he by “Burn’s :Clyde,” and he by “Burnside’s Clyde,” % successful sires and. prize winners. “Burnside’s Clyde” was the sire of the famous “Donn’s Mare,” that won sixteen first prizes in suceession,and was never beaten; she was the dam of four first prize stallions, and three first prize mares; one of these mares was purchased by the Prussian Government; another was taken to Lancastershire, England, and there won’ numerous first prizes, being successful over every mare she competed against; and the third, “Jessie,” (the dam of Prince of Kilbride, one of our importation,) was purchased by Mr. Todd, of Kinross, Scotland. She won first prizes at Kinross, in 1871, 1872, and 1873; also the first prize at the Four County Show, held at Cooper, while her foal at her side also took first prize; she also won the Earl of Glasgow’s Gold Cup, as being the best Clydesdale animal on exhibition, competing against a large field of prize animals of all ages, including stallions, mares and geldings., In 1874 she again ‘won the first prize at the TFour County Show, held at Kinross, as the best brood mare, and her foal at her side, again also taking the first prize; she was then barred from farther competition.

Donald Dinnie, 2d’s grand dam, Mr. Drysdale’s celebrated prize mare, “Black Jessie;”’ sired by “Lofty” and he by the famous Scottish Champion.

For the comparative differences between the several classes of draught horses, we will inseit the following, from the Messrs. Powell Bro.’s, as being as correct and reliable as could g‘e expressed : i ; e 8 Our business for -years, has been such as to require the use of a very ‘large number of horses, in various ways,—on the road, under the saddle, on the farm and in heavy draft work; which has given us extended experience and observation with horses in all their various characteristics and uses. All these classes we have always found in large:supply, and at reasonable prices, except the wellbred first-class roadster, and the fine, large, strong, muscular farm and draft horse, with flat legs, sound feet and good action. ~Wehave always found these very limited in number, and commanding high prices. In fact, it has been almost impossible to find horses of the latter ¢lass, anywhere in this country, at any price. ! The different breeds of draft horses, now before the world, are: Canadian, Conestoga, Suffolk-Punch, LondonCart, English Draft, Belgian, NormanPercheron and Clydesdale. ; . THE CANADIAN is a low, pony-like horse, and formerly, was highly prized as a semi-draft horse, but with insufficient isize for heavy work. - He is rapidly becoming extingt, and is being superseded by heavier| breeds. | =

THE CONESTOGA was bred, and was somewhat popular in Pennsylvania, some half century ago, but only grades can now be found; and he, too, is be-coming-extinet. . v .el

Recognizing the sad ideficiency of the American draft horse, two of our firm went abroad in 1874, for the purpose of investigating the .various breeds of Ewmrope, and securing some of the best. ! » THE SUFFOLE-PUNCH was never but

little recognized outside of England, and while he is a horse with a fine crest, capable of much show, and is of large stature, yet he merits no commendation, and receives none. Outside of Suffolk County, England,where he originated, he is not bred, and even there is rapidly deteriorating. Tue LoNDON CART HORSE is a huge animal of which Henry William Herbert, (Frank Pourter) an Englishman, says in his “Hints to Horse Keepers,” page 90, “An animal incapable of working faster thania foots.pace, aud only bred, in fact, for show and ostentation, and not for utility.” Such we found him, i

f THE ENGLISH DRAFT HORSE,as near as .we could learn, by much inquiry, is not a distinct family, but a class of horses, various in type, and probably had its origin in a cross between the London-Cart and the Suffolk-Punch, - THE BELGIAN originated in Belgium, and, abroad, are pronounced “the softest brutes in all Europe.”. Of these there are two -classes,—the Belgian Coach, and the Belgian Draft. The former are of medium size, of great beauty, but of little worth, fit only for parade and funeral occasions, for which he is chiefly used, abroad, The latter, (Belgian Draft) is a large, coarse grained,paunchy horse,although immense in size, is far too light in limb, lacking in finish ‘and action, and of a flabby nature. .

THE PERCHRON-N ORMAN,—Itis-due } to him to say, that we left this country favorably inclined to this breed; and in his purity heis a superior horse for light draft, but he has been greatly deteriorated by crossing upon larger and coarser breeds, ia order to get a horse of sufficient size and weight, to meet the demands of the times,— railroads, and other rieans of irapid travel, having superseded, to a great extent, the diligence, the post-coach, ete., for. which he was, formerly, 50 much prized. By this objectionable and injudicious crossing, to get more size, he has lost many ‘of his éesirable characteristics, and having become a grade or a cross-breed, even though a particular animal may be all that might be desired in appearance, there is a want of uniformity in the offspring. -We were forced to this conclusion, even against our previous inclination. That none may think that this is imaginary we quote from “The Percheron Horse,” by the French author, Charles Du Huys, the recognized authority on that breed, (pages 14 and 15:) The height of the Percheron Horse 'is generally 1414 to 16 hands high;” and after describing the characteristics! of the ‘earlier Percheron Horse, adds, “These are the points which are still noticed upon what remain of some old horses, preserved from the transformation which commenced long ago; for at the present moment everything is much changed. Since’ the time of the foreign crossings, the foot has become flatter, the head overcharged, the tendon still weaker, the back longer, the shoulder has lost its direction, and the croup has become shorter.” In Chapter VII —*Causes of the Degeneracy of the Percheron Horse,” page. 28, he says: “It would be very difficult, if not impossible, to find there at the present moment, a Percheron. completely free from mixture of foreign blood.” From Chapter Vlll—“Starting point of this Degeneration,” - (page 30) we quote: “The change was so rapid, that, to-day, d 1 many places, there does no# remain the slightest trace of genuine Percheron bleod, It is'a mixture which betrays itself to the eye by coarse forms, foreign to the original type,” - | Hence they are without a pedigree. -~ THE CLYDESDALE, we found,possesses, by far, more desirabie qualities than anyother draft horse in existence. In this opinion we are fortified by the

judgment of a large portion of the civilized world; for there is hardly any progressive country to which this horse is not being transported. 'The demand for him-is already immense, and constantly increasing, To the German States, to France, to Austria, to Holland, to Belgium, to Russia, to England, to Canada, tlg the Unfted States, to Australia, to New Zealand, as well as to many other countries, is this mighty horse, which partakes of the sturdy nature of the Scotchman, being shipped; and in the great exhis bitions of thesg gountries he has, ake most uniformly, been successful over all other breeds. . ; DESCRIPTION OF THI OLYDEBDALE, In color, bays and browns predomis nate, with usually some white in the

face or on the feet. - In height he ranges from 15: 3 to 17:1, with an occasional one at nearly 18 hands, and in weight from 1,500 to 2,100 pounds, with an occasional horse 2,400 or 2,500 pounds. He is heavier boned than; any ' other ‘breed, aceording to his| weight, particularly in his limbs, which are of great width, flat, cordy ‘and hard. It is said that at the bonemills the bones of the Clyde can readily be distinguished from the ordinary horse, by toughness and solidity. Ringbones, bohe-spavins, splints, and such diseases <of the bony structure, are with him, in his native country, utterly unknown.. The hoofs are good - size, deep, well-shaped, fine grained, firm and tough. He has prominent‘ eyes, fine head, well-shaped neck, well set upon magniﬁ%nt shoulders. His ‘barrel is round ‘and straight, with none of the paunchy appearance; body generally long, and the quarters immense. The whole muscular structure is of prodigious development,and with none of the stall-fed and flabby appearance, S 0 common in some families of the draft horse; mane and tail heavy,’ and usually inclined to curl. The back of thé legs, from the knee and hocks to the fetlock,ls coveged with quite long hair, a cha.ractér;'lx}c as highly prized by the Scotchman, as the erumpled horn by the breeders of the Short-Horns; both being evidence of the purity of the blood. He is kind and gentle in disposition, but spirited, and with great nerve, vim and courdge. He is a rapid walker, with or without load, excellent traveler, for a heavy horse, of woiiderful power and -endurance, and by far the easiest kept horse, according to size, with which we ever had anything to do. Such we found the Clydesdale horse. : Simply for working purposes, the Clydesdale sells from twenty-five to fifty per cent. higher than any other horse, of equal size and weight, not only in Glasgow and Edinburgh, but also in] London, Liverpool, Manchester, and all other commercial and manufacturing centres of Europe. For breeding purposes, the difference is still greater. A All things considered, we believe him to be the very best horse for heavy draft and farm purposes, and the best adapted to our wants. Being more strongly bred than other breeds, will insure greater uniformity in the produce, when crossed upon our American mares; a most important consideration, ant one often overlooked, but cannot be over‘estimated.
