FINE WESTERN HORSES.
They Should Bring High Prices but
Breeders Don't Understand
Marketing Them.

THE Western horseraiser seldom gets
more than half the value of the horses he
Sells" said D. Arnheim, of New York, at
the Coates House. THE reason is he does
not take the pains to get his animals in
proper condition for the market, and the
buyer of fine horses must take into con-
sideration, in naming a price, the cost of
putting the horse in good shape. With
15-cent corn and cheap oats and PASTURE
the cost of putting a horse in fine shape
for sale is trifling. Sixty lays will suffice
and with proper care this usually means
an addition of fifty or more dollars to the
selling price. l ave seen horses offered
worth $3.50 tina sold for less than half that
sum because they were thin in flesh, had
poor hair and were not trimmed up for
sale. With a little time, a small amount
of feed and some careful attention, the
animal would have been picked up quick
at a fancy price.
There is always a good market for a
big, fine horse when he is in shape for
showing to good effect. / bought a pony
at one of the sales here in Kansas City for
$50. 1t was thin and in poor condition. but
it suited my purpose. l shipped it to New
York, put it in shape for sale there and
disposed of it for 800, and 1 have an order
to buy another like 1t for anything up to
500 each that had been bought in Kansas
City for 500, simply because they were
put in shape for showing before we Of
fered to sell them. II the men who raise
good horses about here paid the same at
tention to them that is given in Kentucky
the prices would be as high here as at
~eXingtOn.

PRAISES FOR THE MULE.
Captain Tough, Who Thous-
ands of Mules, Sounds Loudly
Their Good traits.

Captain W. s.. Tough, who has been man
ager of the horse and mule barns at the
stock yards for many years., and is one
OF the best posted horsemen of the West,
says it's all wrong for the public TO deride
and malign the mule. say all manner OF
evil n no good of him. He says 1t is be-
cause the public does not know the real
traits of the animal and Is convinced by
clamor and Jest rather than by fact and
real experience.
When given kind treatment and handled
by a careful man." says Captain Tough,
"the mule is as capable of affection as a
horse and there is scarcely a case where
he does not repay care with a better serv-
ice. l have seen mules, plenty OF them,
that would do routine work. show an APP
probation of 1t and do it with painstaking
care to a degree that was wonderful. Mules
have in many cases broken away from a
cruel master and travelled miles to get
back to the home of a master who was
kind. 1 ave handled thousands OF them
and in almost every case they respond
emp to any kindness shown them"

heretofore, although not as widely d.

plentiful in the market, but confined their
orders to certain lines of fall goods and

tons are without feature in any line.
Bleached and brown goods are dull in all
grades. except export goods, which show
tons generally quiet. Denims less so than
stripes, checks, cheviots and the like. Print
cloths are quiet, sales of odd goods continu-

figure. Prints sell with considerable free
dom in all fall lines at recent prices. Wool

less active than mems wear fabrics.

Stocks and Ronda.

New York. June 23.-To-day was another
day of marked strength in the market for
stocks, the dealings being large and the
buying demand keen, so that the tendency
of prices was strongly upward. There were
ups and down during the day, the latter
on profit taking for the most part. but
the close of the days trading found prices
generally above last nights close. The
outside interest in the market shows large
increase and commission houses report q
great accession of orders of a speculative
Character following the solid investment
buying that has been going on for some
time, and which to-day's developments in
dictate is still going on. The buying was
almost wholly a result of the confidence
in the general outlook for business. There
was little news accompanying the upward
movement of prices and, therefore, little
to record beyond the mere changes in
prices.
The pond market showed no abatement
of the decided strength that has character
lied its operation for some time.
The following was the range of prices
yesterday. as furnished by the G. S. Lee
Commission Company, 200 New York Life
building:
