HELP WANTED!
Colonel K. Y. Benson,
U S A F, is in immediate and
urgent need of expert advice. He
reports that since May he and his
family have been suffering from
Walking Horse fever “in its most
dangerous stage and in order to
reduce it plan to start a breeding
operation of some forty to fifty
mares with a relatively small
training effort alongside (fifteen
horses). We plan to set up shop in
Tennessee, somewhere within fifty
miles of Nashville (or in any warm
climate in the vicinity of an Air
Force base or permanent military
establishment).”
Lt. Colonel Benson requests
VOICE readers to assist him in his
hour of need by answering these
pertinent questions:
1. What pasture acreage would
be necessary?
2. Where can I get advice or
plans on the various types of
stables; size of stalls; ideal con­
struction materials for roof, walls,
stall floors, etc.; ventilation; ar­
rangement of tack room, feed room,
office and stalls and so forth?
3. Which real estate agents in
Tennessee would be most know­
ledgeable and helpful?
4. Is there planning information
available on the costs of raising
horses?
5. What basic books would you
suggest on the general subject?
6. Would you advise owning
your own studs or using others?
(Money is a limitation.)
7. Where can I get back issues of
the Blue Ribbon?
8. Where can I get large frame-
able pictures of famous Walking
Horses?
