So You Want a Horse?
Continued from page 15 You may even find there are some tax advantages to being an equine enthusiast. The Bensons, for example, buy all their feed and supplies under the name of "Balidi farm," thus saving Georgia's 3% sales tax, which is not levied on agricultural equipment or supplies. But in most states a horse is considered personal property and thus will add a few dollars to your local property-tax bill. PROSPECTIVE horse owners should also be sure to check any local ordinances that may interfere with keeping a horse in their yard. In Akron, for example, barbed-wire fences are illegal in the city or neighboring towns, so horse owners must use wooden fences. In the Atlanta area, barns must be built at least 200 feet from a property line—but a garage is not considered a barn. In most of Chicago's northern suburbs, village ordinances forbid owners keeping horses within the villages. Most horse owners living in the villages along Lake Michigan keep their horses at one of the area's five large stables. Northwestern Stables in Morton Grove, for example, boards horses for 46 local families. "A lot of people in this area have three or four horses here," says James Bernhard, a foreman at Lake Forest's Onwentsia Stables. Many California communities also have antihorse ordinances. Several communities in the Los Angeles area, such as Flintridge, near Pasadena, have recently passed such laws. A new Santa Cruz ordinance says horses presently housed in yards may stay, but residents may not acquire additional horses. And barns and stables within Santa Cruz may continue to be used, but they can't be expanded. It's a good idea, if you're planning to buy a horse, to ask the neighbors if they'd mind. Many of the California antihorse ordinances are being passed because residents objected to an occasional neigh or a few garden flowers being nibbled by a neighbor's horse. One result of these new laws is that "many people who really love horses and have been faced with the new ordinances, are moving farther out in the country where their neighbors won't object," says Mrs. Hermann Friedlaender, a Soquel, California, horsewoman and a regional supervisor of U.S. Pony Clubs. FOR A TEEN-AGER, owning a riding horse can be especially fun. Some 5,000 suburban teen-agers are members of 104 Pony Clubs across the country. The clubs, besides sponsoring trail rides, teach youngsters how to ride and care for their horses and equipment. In some communities, such organizations as the YMCA sponsor riding classes. Other groups, such as 4-H clubs, hold shows and contests. Later on, after you and your steed have become good companions, you may want to try some of the more exotic equine activities: polo, jumping, or fox hunting. When that time arrives, you'll probably wonder how you ever got along without a horse!
