The question of what we shall dc
with our horses is becoming one OF the
most absorbing of the hour. The in-
PRODUCTION of cable and electric power
on street railways has thrown tens of
thousands of working horses out of
employment, and their value has consc-
quently largely decreased. Good car
riage horses, of course, command the
usual prices but draught horses can
now be had for a song. We hear of no
protest from the equine tribe, however.
