Excerpt from Types, Breeds, and Market Classes of Horses, Vol. 2 The Percheron breed has proved very popular in America and may be said to be increasing in public favor. Percherons have crossed extremely well with native American mares, imparting quality and size and producing marketable horses. Due to their being clean-limbed, free from super uous hair, and of good disposition, they have always been great favorites with the American farmers, and users of heavy horses in cities show decided preference for grade Percherons. In the United States the number of recorded Percherons is greater than the number of recorded horses of all the other draft breeds com bined, which fact indicates that the breed is very popular.
