Stations in Demand

Trade in draft and coach stations Is
running pretty heavy throughout the
Central West just now. Several adver-
tisers who have offered horses for sale
through our columns have appealed to
us to state that they have been sold, In
order TO stop the food of correspondence
that has been started by the advertise
ments. The large importing establish.
ments are fairly overrun with visitors
intent on business and many sales are
now being closed. Nosuch activity has
characterized this trade for years. and
the selling season is by no means yet at
an end.
There is manifest a distinct DISPOSE
ton to look very carefully over mum.
Der Of studs before purchasing, and
buyers are operating with discretion
never before manifested. They know
horses much better than did the stall
lioners who entered upon the industry
a decade or more ago, and are decided
ly more critical in their selections.
Among the draft horses they are insist
ing on size, and at the same time are
manifesting an appreciation Of the fact
that coarseness is as undesirable now as
it ever was. Among the coachers and
Hackneys they are demanding carriage
horse patterns, with finish and all the
action it is possible to get In other
words they are learning the lessons Of
the market place and are entering upon
the new era Of horse breeding with their
eye teeth cut. Breeders Gazette.

evening, the information was definite

upon by the efforts of Mr.. L. c..
Spooner to donate Block 81 to the

sum each year,
The thanks of the people Of Nor
ris are due both to Pres. Hill and Mr..
Spooner, to the former for his gener
osity and to the latter for the public

it to get park for Morris. We re-
ioice that Morris now has park
which will some day be breathing
space in the midst of busy town.
