BIC SHIPMENTS
Of LIVE STOCK
THOUSANDS OF HORSES HAVE
GONE EAST DURING THE
PRESENT SEASON.
THERE IS APPARENTLY
NO DECREASE IN DEMAND.
Cattle. Commencing to Move Towards
Eastern Markets-Railroad
Notes.

The enormous demand for horses this
year has made the shipping of the noble
animal a big feature in Montana railroad
traffic.
t'Thousands upon thousands of head have
been shipped out of Montana during the
year, said one general agent to the Inter
Mountain today. First came a heavy
demand for horses for our army, and the
country east of the river was drawn upon.
Then the British government sent its rep
rssentatives over and they have been buy
Ing all the horses they could find.
TITS strange, too, that the demand is
just about as keen now as it was before,
aid the Montana range horses that were
practically worthless not long ago now
good prices.
1.-THE recent sale at Dillon took away
something like 2,o0o head. These were
bought by representatives Of big eastern
dealers. who took all these animals back
to Sioux City, Omaha, ST. Louis and Chi
cago, where they were disposed of to army
contractors, and many are by this time on
the way to England.
The other western states have all been
drawn. upon. Only today. a big train of
Il carloads of horses is being moved by
the Oregon Short Line from Dubois, Idaho,
to the eastern market.
NO, the horse is no longer a drug, and
the ranchmen are putting by some easy
money on account of this demand, while
the ranges are being cleaned up"
Another big auction sale of Montana
horses is to alike place at Dillon on Sep
TENDER II and p, and the Short Line Off
clals estimate that about 2,NO head will
be disposed of.
Montana cattle are now moving freely,
tralnioad after trainload being shipped out.
All the railroad men agree that the ship
ments this season will be the heaviest in
the history of the state. The ranges are
very poor, making it undesirable to hold
stock over, the market is good, and by the
end of the season the range will be closely
stripped. Cattlemen are sending out every
thing that can be marketed in order to
lessen their chances of loss through the
winter.
The general agents of the roads in Butte
agree that their Montana business this year
Will show an increase of all the way from
10 to 30 per cent. The gain comes largely
from the almost unprecedented shipments
of stock of all kinds in the freight depart
ment and the heavy travel in the passen-
ger departments.
