HORSE RAISERS M VKING BIG
MONK A 1>.:SIMTE MOTORS
CHICAGO, Oct. 3.—The European
war has caused such a scarcity of
horses in the United States that
farmers who raise adaptable Ue'gians
whose weight range from 1200 to 1500
pounds makes it an excellent cavalry
or police mount, are putting a high
price on the animals which at the
present time is being accepted b\ the
horse dealers.
While thousands of Percherons and
I Belgians, weighing from 1500 to 1800
pounds are at present employed in
drawing cannon ami ammunition
wagons on the battlefields, they ure
not so commonly used here as the
ligiiter animal.
A cross between IVtvheron stock
1 and the American horses makes an
almost ideal goner:*.I purple horse,
and a well matched team will bring
from $500 to $000. where formerly a
team could be purchased at $200 to
$200. There is no importation of
horses at this time and therefore,
