Percheron Breeding Stud Established by Railroad Aid

A bulletin from the Agricultural Division of the N C O B L Ry describes the foundation breeding studs for Percheron horses at the West Tennessee Experiment Station in Jackson Tennessee. Five mares aged two to five and a young stallion form the initial stock funded by the railroad, with sale rules to keep stallions within the state. The program aims to supply affordable draft horses to farmers, improving size and efficiency, while proceeds fund the railroad loan repayment. A similar stud is planned at Knoxville through Holston National Bank funding.
