independence Sentinel.
The country is being drained
of all surplus draught, saddle
and driving animals. The scare,
ity Of feed has impelled many
farmers to disposed of every
possible mule or horse. There
will hardly be animals enough
next spring to run the farms
Those who have sold off their
animals expecting TO replace
them in the spring will be dis
appointed in ali probability.
Horses will be scarce and nigh
priced
The people have not taken
sufficient notice of the fact that
thousands of mules nave been
bought by England in Mo. dur
ing the last year and especially
during the past summer. These
mules have been shipped to
South Africa to be used in wal
against the Beers. The Mis-
souri, farmer will feel the effect
of this trade next spring. Sc
will all contractors who are en-
gagged on public works which
require teams. The public
works and the large cities use
as many horses as are used il
the rural districts.
High prices must inevitably
rule for mules and horses of all
grades during auumber of years
to come. The low price of re-
cent years will be followed by
figures at the other extreme.
Stock raisers would do well to
turu their attention now to
horses. 1t is almost certain to
be Il paying business Auto
MOBILES, bicycles, railroads and
street cars have not yet taken
the place of the horse.
