In the late issue OF Stock Journal OF

statement that Great Britain affords the
argest and best market for horses among
the nations OF Europe. The number OF
horses imported into England during 1896
was 1850. valued at S5i35, 900. or this
number the United States supplied 1890.
valued at s2.650000: Canada. $50, valued
at si.59O00o. and Russia. Denmark, and
Germany, 1900. $500 and 800. respectively.
The horse industry in the United States
and Canada has. during the last few
years. advanced by leaps and bounds.
These two countries are fast monopolizing
the horse trade In Great Britain. and as
an illustration OF the increase In the de-
mand for horses In the United Kingdom IN
1852. $500 horses were imported. whereas

changes regarding the management OF the

change is that all automobiles and motor

fore they are taken into the garden TO be
exhibited at the show. Last year ma
ch.nes ready for operating were taken In

also decided To support the ordinance ie-
lating 10 street springling now before the

send a committee TO represent the organi-
zation at the public hearing on the ordi-
nance. Five new active members were
