A Denver paper in accounting Tor
the number of runaway horses In
that city says it is on account OF the
altitude, that horses in high altl-
tude are nervous and cannot be de-
pended ON as being perfectly gentle.
The altitude does not effect the
horses in this part of the country In
that way, we have some that are nat
urally wild and Others that are tame
enough.
