(Continued on Page 26) Copyright 1956 by The Mogan Horse Magazine A Guest Editorial OUR COVER By MABEL OWEN Dear Mrs. Morrell: In the "Letters to the Editors" column in last month's magazine you asked a question, or rather, several. "Is the Morgan Horse going to the dogs? What was so wrong with old Justin anyway that every- one seems to be breeding for something else?" After a number of years unsuccessful tilting at the windmills of how modern Morgans are shown, I should have acquired enough bumps to have permanently callused even my volatile nature, but your letter seems to have proved otherwise. So now lets take your first question — "Is the Morgan Horse going to the dogs?" Answered in the light of number of foals registered, transfers, new owners in new areas and the great increase in general interest in the breed, there seems a reasonably well-justified belief that the Morgan is here to stay, and furthermore to flourish as We are indebted to Miss Sylvia the green bay tree. I rather suspect, however that this isn't exactly Kraus of 3817 West Walnut St., Mil- what you had in mind since you prefaced your question with a refer- waukee, Wis., for this exquisite cover ence to a recent magazine article querying the possible degeneration picture and the accompanying poem. of the purebred dog. Since that article provoked a sufficient flood of We know you will like both as well answers from those who took the contrary view, there seems small as we do and know this will be one point in referring to it farther. You have tied in with it however, of the most treasured issues of our the idea that the modern Morgan has degenerated when compared readers. with his forebear. Now are you quite certain that you know just what the original Morgan looked like? During the last twenty-five years there has been a great wave of feeling regarding the "old type" Morgan. Linsley has been quoted and Colonel Battell; and articles from the old "Albany Cultivator" have AMERICAN MORGAN HORSE been used to back one view, or another. Now anyone can quote.

To assist in the detection of spurious and the correction of inaccu- rate pedigrees, is one of the purposes of the present publication, in which respect the first Volume has been of acknowledged utility. The two together, it is hoped, will form a comprehensive and tole- rably correct Register of Pedigrees. It will be observed that some of the Mares which appeared in the last Supplement (whereof this is a republication and continua- tion) stand as they did there, i. e. without any additions to their produce since 1813 or 1814. — It has been ascertained that several of them were about that time sold by public auction, and as all attempts to trace them have failed, the probability is that they have either been converted to some other use, or been sent abroad. If any proof were wanting of the superiority of the English breed of horses over that of every other country, it might be found in the avidity with which they are sought by Foreigners. The exportation of them to Russia, France, Germany, etc. for the last five years has been so considerable, as to render it an object of some importance in a commercial point of view.

  • Land Under Pressure: the Value of Irish Land in a Period of Rapid Population Growth, 1730–1844*
    Land under pressure: The value of Irish land in a period of rapid population growth, 1730–1844* land under pressure by Peter M. Solar and Luc Hens Abstract This paper uses information on almost 5000 leases to arrive at estimates for the trends in current land values in County Armagh from 1730 to 1844. The estimates control for the length of the lease, the holding size, and the quality of land in the townland where the property was located, the last relying on information from the General Valuation of Ireland. They show growth in nominal rents up to the early 1770s, a plateau in the 1770s, 1780s and 1790s, an increase to the early 1810s, followed by a fall to the early 1820s and another plateau thereafter, stretching until the famine of the late 1840s. Taken together with information on wage and price trends, the new estimates show little change in real rents and negative total factor productivity growth from the 1780s to the 1830s. The Irish economy in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries was predominantly agricultural. In 1841, 53 per cent of the labour force worked on the land, and in the early eighteenth century the share was probably higher.1 The timing and direction of change in the intervening years are a matter of dispute, which is unlikely ever to be resolved fully in the absence of sufficiently reliable statistical information.2 Ireland was also experiencing one of the highest population growth rates in Europe: from the early 1750s until the 1820s upwards of 1.4 per cent per annum.3 The natural rate of population growth remained relatively high into the 1830s and early 1840s, with the actual rate slowing only with the beginnings of mass emigration.
