Purebred Stallions Lead Iowa Breeding in 1924
Des Moines reports from the Iowa Department of Agriculture show purebred stallions rising to 72.7 percent of all stallions and jacks licensed in 1924, with grade stallions at 0.1 percent and purebred and grade jacks at 19.2 percent. The total registered animals were 5.4 percent purebred, up from 65.9 percent in 1912. The current law restricts licenses to grade stallions only if they hold a permanent soundness certificate, predicting a faster decrease in grade stallions in coming years.
