BREEDING FOB A PURPOSE.
Eastern Oregon is over-run with achiss
t monKrel-bred horses that there Ih
nit much sale for, exoept at very low
irices. 1 believe this is owing rincipal
y to a lack of knowledge in horsemen of
the principnU of breeding and the laws
if hereditary transmission.
Breeding to mongrel stock is like
ottery -one does not know what he is
going to gel. Mongrel-bred animals
seldom b ive any prapitent pivir i. e.
they have not power to trausinit their
own peculiarities to their ofi'inng with
any oertaiuty. The progeny will take
after the parent that has the longest line
of iuheritanoe fro n a fimily of Bi '.l
characteristics. It we breed a scrub
mare to a pure bred peroheroa niallion,
the offspring invariably take after
the stallion. This is because the stallion
domes from a family of tited character
istics. The peroherons have b'ea ai
established breed for hundreds of yean,
so when we.breed a mongrel mare to a
full blood percheron horse, bo has a com
plete monopoly of the whole business.
There areotherpropoteut breeds of dra't
horses, snch as the Clydesdales, the Sof
folke nud Shire horses. Lst every one
breed for a purpose; if he wants to raise
trolling horses, breed to trotting horses,
and etick to it; but don't mix breeds,
I know a man wlm has ll half-breed
Clyde mare that he olairns to have paid
8350 for in the Willamette. This mare
be bred to an impirted Cleveland liiy
stallion, with tbe expeutation of getting
a large animal with the style and action
of the Cleveland B ly. The colt thus
bred will be three years ld in the spring,
and when grown, will probably be worth
from t'.h to $10 I. It has the sizo id the
Cleveland Biy. and the f irm and sloven
actiou of Ike Clydesdale. II id the mare
been bre l to a pure.bred Clydesdale stal
lion, the colt would hiing from 8500 to
$80 ), if it should be a staiiion.
Men who are ignoiaut of the laws of
hereditary transmission, say that they
look at the animal an 1 not the pedigree.
It is all well enough to look at the horse,
but the pedigree should be examined as
well. It makes no difference how tine a
horse he might be, if be does not come
from a family of fixed cbarcteristios, he
will not transmit bis good qualities to
his offspring with any certainty.
I would like to see a law enacted mak
ing it a criminal offmse to let stallions
run on tbe range at any season of the
year. If one man is trying to improve
bis horses, it is an imposition for bis
ueigbbor to turn a so nil) stallion on the
ranae. I do uot particularly objeet ti
my neighbor raising sorub horses, but. I
lo object to them oorapelliug me to raise
them. There is a law to prevent tuein
from running at large in oertuiu mouths
in the year, but if t understand it right,
tl re is not much sh to ieu Ver dam
ages iu a wild c oiutiy like this.

I'hey were Hcconimodated, for Willis
bo bad also served iu the 8;iuie c m

would suffer nulesH be quietly yielde I i
their demands This he did aud dis
piitohed a messenger to Lacuna to iu
form R T. Elsou of the visitors, and iu
vile him to spend the evening with the
bojs, mihiug six of Company G, Klih
1 iwa, holding a reuuiou. The names ol
the four visitors were; Elias Hicks, W
V. Parker, John Barker, of Sand) ville,
ind E. J. Hicks, of Republic county,
Kau ., a brother of Elias who was visit
ing iu old Warren umoug relatives end
friends. It will soon be thirty years
since these smne boys, with many others
enlisted at ludiauola. under Capt. Heu
lerson, leavii g home aud friends to do
oatlle for their country.' Theu they Ben
full of life and vigor, buoyant with liopi
of an early and oompltte victory which
would soon return them home again. I
need not be told how their hopes win
realized. Some of them followed Shei
oiiiu in his march to the sea. Now the)
are all broken down tvilh premature age.
Tnotjil est of them is. but fifty-two, and
the j.iunuest foit.y-seveii. This was the
rlrst limo we had met the boys since the
close of ihe. war. Two of thum, Puikei
and E. .1. Links, are fullering wiiu ex
treme weak eyes, almost to blindness.
Two of them were captured nud sent to
tV. A. Willis and Elias Hicks at BelU
ale, where Willis cmuu near djiug and
was saved only through the brotberl
cure of Hioks, who, while Willis win
sick with a fever, at a time when tin
.lames river ws froZ-'ti so as to cany
footmen safely over, and with uo wood oi
fuel of any kind nor shelter to protect
them from the chilly blast of winter,
while Willis was l.ting there exposed to
the bleak wiudr, Ilieks with his hande
piled Ihe sand up ag oust him, and then
with Ihe kindest attention he was en
. bled to pull through. Hicks was after
nurd transferred to Audersouville, where
lie was kept, over seveu mouths, and sot'
fereil ull the horrors of that rebel bell
Ilieks related the following bit of expert
eneo while at Audersouville whieb we
think worthy of spies in yo.tr pipsr. He
bad, when admitted into A t Isrso iville,
ab nit one-half of an I oi l army blanket
with which be tried to m ike a tent or
place in which to sleep, by handing soum
small sticks after the fashion of wagon
b iws, sticking each end in the groun I,
or in the sand, rather, then using the
hilf blanket for a covering aid ming
p ue lira io les to spline oat tin little
ro if, and Iu t iys he w is su-prise I at the
shelter from rain and hiio which Ibis af
forded him. Nowcoines the fanny part,
in his r ale nis of corn meal, li" Ireqaeiitlt
f.oiiid whole imiins of corn, ami more
through curi 'Bity than any other motive,
he plan'ed several of these grams of corn
along the outer edge of bis hut, or tent,
as hoalle l it, in the sand. Tbe drip
pinir from the pine branches whei it
would rain, gave sullli ieut moisture to
sprout the com, a id soon it was growing
ncely lie said he bad several tiuhis
aud skirmishes to protect his onip, and
one night whe i asleep he was awakened
by that peculiar Bound made when twist
ing a roasting ear from the stiaik, and
scrambling from his nest he found him
self confronted tiy an Irishman who had
thought to appropriate some of this corn
to satisfy his intense hunger, but nt tbe
audit, of Hoiks, be scampered, muttering
s ime Ii ihIi uihhernga about the inhu
manity of man to the race. That stalk
of com died, .hut fmm t ie whole crop
thus planted and cultivated, Hi tks mi) I
he enjoyed two good meals of roasting
ears, ii nle.l in an old oyster can, uumb"r
iog ah ut twenty nnhtiins in ull. At Mr.
Willis' that night, the boys were all hap
py. They told ull the army stories they
had ever known or beard. They suntf all
the army songs they knew or could tind,
and not hoiui satisfied with army songs,
they used the "Gospel Hymns" and other
oliurch music (for b' it renvm'iered they
were all coiirch members except one, and
we believe he is likely to be at no distant
day.) until midnight, or later. The next
day tliuv all took dinner nt the home f
It 1'. K son, in I. in m i, after wli oh th -y
returned to their homes. Thus ended a
very pleasant reunion of seven of Com
pany U. for we called on Capt. J. M.

making seven of Ihe Company together.
