I wish to take this opportunity to thank the members of the Rules Committee for the work the.y have done in clarifying our Morgan Rules. Since we are a nation -wide association, it is not practical to hold meetings as distances are too great, so the rules had to be wo.rked out by mail and telephon e.. I am pleased to say the final Rules as accepted by the A.H.S.A. were approve.cl by the majority of our rules committee members. It is sincerely hope.cl that judges of Morgan classes will follow these rules and that our exhibito.rs will abide by them. The following are the 1964 rules for showing Morgan Horses with permission of the American Horse Show We feature this month as is our Association. The.se rules become effective as soon as the A.H.S .A. rule bo.ok custom, the Grand Champion Stallion is in the mail which should be early March. of the last National Show. Orcland Those who are interested are urged to join the A.H.S.A. which is possible Dondarling is the holder of this honor. by sending $10.00 to the American Horse Show Association, 527 Madison Ave., He is by Ulendon out of Anna Darling New York 22, N.

MARCH 1964 27 HIGH PASTURESMORGAN HORSE FARM

BROWNSVILLE,VERMONT

An impression existent in the Northeast Morgan horse world is, that a "pleasure" Morgan is only that, because he does not have what it takes to make a "perform ance" Morgan. Therefore, he is not a top grade Morgan and should be priced accordingly. This is an impression that should be corrected BECAUSE:

# 1 - All Morgan breeders are striving to raise good Morgans. The cost is not cheap.

# 2 - The cost of training a thoroughly dependable, useful Morgan horse may well be even more expensive than training a "performance" horse. It takes time and a lot of it, to train a horse to not only be well mannered in a ring, but to train one that is safe on the road.

# 3 - He is being trained for a life time job and for the Morgan, that can be a long one. It is not a bit unusual to find useful Morgans that are over twenty years of age. \

# 4 It takes a real good individual of any breed to be a contender in todQy's pleasure classes and competitive trail rides, goals of many pleasure horse owners, although not of prime importance.

'· , So it is our contention that a pleasure Morgan is every bit as valuable an animal as a "performance" Morgan and therefore, should bring as good a price.

Introducing CRITERION13371

Last Spring we suffered the sad loss of our lovely oJd Jubilee's Courage from strang les. He was a stallion very hard to replace for the excellence of certain points and qualities he passed on and the constant joy he gave the beholder when in motion. He is grea tly missed. We were mo.st fortun ate to have kept this handsome 3 year old good dispositioned son out of Lippitt Robrita, who now promises to. be able to carry on for his sire. When CRITERION is nearer complete maturity we hope to get a satisfactory photograph to show the e.ntire horse. Many of you have s.een this colt when you visited the form. You will have no.ticed how much he is like his sire. - yet showing some of his dam. He took most of the good points from each. He is a very high-headed, high-stepping mover with loads of style.

Romac was born, raised and used on a range cattle operation. He is a proven cow horse and sire of cow horses both grades and purebreds. Romac puts his good disposition, conformation, Morgan type and gaits , and an abundance of natural cow working ability in his offspring. Romac is a consistant ribbon winner in halter and performance classes at the age of 18. Very few of his foals have ever been shown (they are working), but when they have been, they do very well. 1963 was his first season at public stud. Watch for his foals in the show ring this year.

1964 NATIONAL MORGAN HORSE SHOW. JULY 23. 24, 25. 26 ATTENTIONEXHIBITORS Dear Exhibitors: Due to the large number of Morgans entered in the National Morgan Horse Show and the limited number of stalls, we have a serious stabling problem. The 1964 show committee met recently and discussed tha matter. It is our desire to keep the cost of the stalls to the exhibitor to a minimum, and we have set up the following plan. Stall 'reservations submitted now, accompanied by check in payment therefore, will be at the rate of $15.00 each, providing they are mailed and bear a postmark not later than April 30, 1964. Applications for stalls postmarked from May 1, 1964 on, will be at the rate of $20.00 each. Reservations \ may be made on the blanks for same that are being mailed to last year's exhibitors, or by written request addressed to Mr. Seth P. Holcombe, Secretary, National Morgan Horse Show, P. 0. Box 2157 Bishops Corner Branch, West Hartford 17, Connecticut. Every effort will be made to allocate the stalls according to the request of the exhibitor with preference being given to those who ask for the same stalls that they had in 1963. There will be no refunds made except under the following condition. Should you desire to cancel your reservation for stalls and you have notified us in writing in time, your stall or stalls will be offered to the waiting list. If and when someone else takes the stall or stalls and payment for the same is received by the sliow1 committee, you will then receive a refund. It will not be necessary for you to make any decision as to your entries in the show before the usual time. Stall reservations are to be handled separately from entries this year. In order for us to have suffi cient and proper stalls for all desiring them, we must know the number of stalls that are going to be needed well in advance. Your cooperation will be greatly appreciated and will help to make things run more smoothly. National Morgan Horse Show Committee

Yes, snow blankets the countryside here, in the "home town" of the original Justin Morgan. But weather is no deterrent to our training program. Trainers Clyde Roberts (W~stern, including cutting), Jim Borden (English) and Jim Anderson (English) are at work in our large indoor arena. Additional horses for training are invited. Rates on request. Also, plans are well underway for our horsemanship camp for boys, June 28 through July 25. Here, amid the Green Mountains, a limited number of boys will be privileged to enjoy country life on an operating farm of 1200 acres. Full information is available. GREENMOUNTAIN STOCKFARM

102 The MORGAN HORSE FUNQUEST F. RMS - Each sprin g we impatiently awa it the. arrival of o.ur foals to see the latest proof of our breed ing program. Sur e, some of them will not be just what we are hopin g f.or but we love them all the same. With ar rival of the foals comes the perplexing question regardin g matings to produce more of the kind of foals that we like best. To these. questions we have ap plied some research and are happy to pass on to others so.me of our findin gs TYPE for what they are worth. DISPOSITION Among the plains Indi ans, no horse PERFORMANCE was more popular than the pinto. To insure that a mare would produce a pinto, many Indi ans, with appropr iate supplicat ions, tied the feathered body of a magpie with a buckskin thong to the neck of the mare where it hun g Stuart ~. ;J.i.azara until it f.ell off. Wh en the pinto foal arrived in the spring there was of 1308 College Avenue course great rejoicing and reaffi rma tion of faith in magpies . We haven't Topeka, Kansas learned of the power of bird s of oth er colors, so in this regard you are on your own. To insure a big healthy foal, Piegan f ndians often roasted a "big turnip " (Lepto taenia multifida) cut the roasted herb into slices, str ung the slices on a buck skin thon g and secured the same about the neck of the mare. The odor THE BROWN FALCON of the big turnip kept the mare in fine condition all winter. The fastest Pie CHIEF RED HAWK ,I I gan horse of his time is reputed to have been produced by this treatment. How PUKWANA ever, if a really fast horse was wanted , the front feet of a jackrab bit were FUNQUEST FALCON usually added to thong about the neck of the mare. FLYHAWK'SBLACK STAR 1 We have neither magpies nor "big turnip" at Funquest Farms but the FUNQUEST BENMORE proven stallions we use are. producin g foals that are true to their Morgan heri tage of type, disposition and perform ance ability. Our plans are rapidly be ing completed for our first production sale at publi c auction this Fa ll. We plan Yearling & Older to offer a large group of 1964 foals and some older horses. Th e date has FOR SALE NOW been fixed as October 3, 1964 so we in vite you to plan to attend the sale. ff you want to wait and try the method In making inquiry, please be specific as to your nee:ls . employed by the Indians, we would like to know of your success.
