been looking for a horse to boy an3 Tarn ceding advice from aD my friends One of the things I am not sure of to the matter of a bone head Some people say you can tell a horse Intelligence and how kind It Is by the type of bead It has but I don t really know what to look for Can you give me some rules for this Many years ago I bought my first Belgian colt and 1 t too bright about the type of head to look for either The colt had a fairly good body strong legs but a verj plain head Thinking he grow out of it or into it or something I brought him home and ignored the small piggy eyes narrow pointed forehead reman nose closeset ears and general moronic look about him As he grew older it became obvious that when they were handing out the brains he was standing behind the door and missed his He was the original Denny Dimwit and practically Impossible to train he was ac tually quite dangerous because of his intense stupidity So we sold him and the poor horse actually committed suicide in later life Yea the type of head often does denote temperament and intelligence Although there are exceptions it is wise to avoid the horse that docsn have good wide kind looking eyes set in a broad forehead A straight nose and wellshaped mouth and nostrils are a distinct asset The size of ears means little except where showing in line classes but they should not come out of the same hole in the top of the head Wall eyes though unattractive are not an indication of bad temper However exposed teeth snapping painfully around wrist usually is 1 understand hat there now a Half registry Just as there we tsc HaUAraba so yea skate tell me how to go about having a foal registered I would like also to know the qualifications for a Canadian Hunter I afraid none of my contacts or registry lists could help with the address of a Half Thoroughbred registry if indeed there is one It is thought that there used to be one in Canada but it is no more Perhaps a reader might know this par ticular answer However a registration in the Canadian Hunter Society would be of more use as far as resale and value Write to the Canadian National Livestock Records Canadian Hunter Society Ottawa Out for an application form and complete uptodate regulations 1 do know that the foal you wish to register must be out of a Foundation brood mare i a mare approved by and registered in the Light Horse Improvement Society and by a stallion approved by the Hunter Society If you wish to have the dam approved contact Mrs John Wilson Light Horse Improve ment Society or Mrs Holbrook in Ancestor she be in the phone book It is not easy to get into the Hunter Registry but it is well worth the effort if you intend to show or sell 1 would appreciate hearing from readers who have a funny horse story of their own to relate Or perhaps you have a story about some mistake you made with a horse what you learned from it and what advice can give someone in the same boat Please write to Jennifer View from a balloon WHEN A

association reason for appeal Leslie expressed the opinion shared by other members that pertinent information on costs presented at the final day of hearings was not fully considered by the Board We re saying you asked us to present costs then you hear them he explained Ixslie also said the ratepayers are asking that the word sub stantially be defined The word appears in the decision in connection with the catling of lenders for the project The statement reads Should the tender indicate a cost substantially greater than the value of 391 900 which this Board has found to be the estimated cost of the work it would not be within the ambit of the approval given to the application Same attitude According to Leslie the altitude of the association is still the same as it was when word of the application was first received last year It just too costly he said we feel it will force longtime residents out of the village simply because they can t afford it leslie suggested there
