Horse Breeding Profitable.

The horse from time mmcmoriul has
been L factor in industrialsm ana cvili-
zation, says Goodalls Farmer. The evo-
luton of man from savagCry developed
use for the horse as beast of burden and
for pleasure use. Countries that lead in
commercial development give the great
est Importance to the horse. With the
manufacture of modern vehicles and agri-
cultural machinery the sphere OF the horse
in commerciaiism has materially broad
encd. There appears to Dc no normal
substitute for the horse in the field Of ir-
duStrial evolution, this useful animal be
ing more indispensable to the prosccu-
ton Of the several industries than halt Il
century ago.
The expense of raising a horse is not
more than % per cent above ths. cost oi
raising a steer, while the horse Of Il
standard commercial class will command
around two to three times the price OF Il
steer The difference in the initial cost
is represented principally by the differ
cnca IN the service fee of tn" sire.
Registered stations command around
three tC five times as large Il ScrNic" Zee
as bulls. The expense of fcedirS 4 steer
which will sell az 81 is about much as
feeding a gclding that will command 80
to $500. The difference in the expense i'll
raising the two classes of animals is 50
culation of farmers In early maturity
the steer takes precedence over the horse,
but not in the expense Of raising or prof
its in the industry.
Breeders need not feel apnrvhensivc
about the future demand for horses.
Prices generally are very attractive and
remuneratiVe to III ccderS. Sine" 1855.
when prices touched tn" low point in thr
industry since the close OF thC civil war.
values have steadily appreciated until
several standard commercial classes h1v"
increased in price upward OF 100 Ter cent.
1t had been anticipated that prices would
be nominally stationary since 1900. hut an
era of wonderful industrial prosperity has
steadily Increased values annually s. TO
SO per head. The higher level Of prices
has made further advance the current
year.
The gain in values has been achieved in
the face Of strenuous opposition by
horsc1eSS vehicle promoters. While th,'
use of automobiles has largely increased,
it has made no apprcciative impression on
the rSe of horses. At the leading whole
sale market demand for commercial offer
incs has ruled broader than the supply at
an advance of S5uS10 per head the current
year. Notwithstanding the first seven
months receipts showed an incrcaS" Of
| H. .OS9 head Of classified horses. When
exploited intelligently at present prices
farmers will find that horse hUSbandry
will r1y n handsome profit.

Central, Point, Ore, May 4.-(Edi-
tor East OregOnian)-I notice an ar
ticle taken from Baker City paper,
In which an alleged travelling man
makes some statements in regard to
the liquor situation in Ashland. which
are so utterly false and wilfully and
knowingly false, that 1 venture the
assertion that no travelling man who
has any regard for truth or honesty,
will ever allow such a statement to
go out over his true name.
He says in substance that while
Ashland is a very healthy place, there
are many more drug stores there than
In other towns of the same size, that
they are all practically blind pigs"
and that there is more liquor drank
and more drunkenness there than in
saloon towns.
Ashland is spread over a good deal
of ground, and is very hilly and not
convenient to get around in, and the
consequence is, there are more little
stores scattered around in various
places than is usual in towns of that
size, but the number of drug stores is
less in proportion than that of any
other kind of business in town.
That there are places where a man
can get stuff to make him drunk, 1
do not doubt, but that there is as
much or more drunkenness there
than in saloon towns is absolutely
false, and I challenge any man for
his proofs to the contrary.
In nine days that l walked the
streets of Ashland, and carefully no.
ticed conditions l never saw one man
or boy drunk, or who showed that he
had been drinking to excess, or who
was boisterous or noisy on the streets.
A woman could pass along any
street in the town without meeting a

drunken man or crowd of loafing
gamblers and pimps. Even If one
should meet a drunk on the street IT
is no proof that he got the stuff in
Ashland, for It is only a few miles
down the road to Medford. which is
saloon town. and many quarts and
gallons for aught l know, of the stuff
is carried by individuals from one
place to the other.
There never was a day went by.
week day or Sunday while l was in
Medford, that l did not see drunken
men; old men and boys. day and
night, on the streets, in the hotels
everywhere; and then for man to
have the inexpressble gall to tell me-
after what / have seen, that there is
as much drunknness in Ashland as in
a saloon town!
No man who has the slightest re-
gard for truth or decency would
make such an assertion. even though
he were soliciting for a whlskey
house.
l do not claim that the law is en-
forced to the utmost, or that the busi-
ness is entirely strangled, but even
with the measure of enforcement
which they have, the moral atmos-
phere is so far above that of the
saloon towns around here and in other
places, it ought to encourage people
in other towns to make an effort along
the same lines.
The surroundings are attracting the
best class of people to the town. New
corners are going in there right along,
and they are universally of the moral
class; many of them are people of
comfortable means, who go there be-
cause they can enjoy church and
school privileges and rear their chill
dren in a reasonably pure and moral
atmosphere.
l assure that man with the seven
boys, that so far as the surroundings
are concerned, he will never regret
taking his boys to Ashland. A lady,
who was accustomed to saloons and
did not know Ashland was dry, told
me that, for four days, she passed up
and down the main streets of Ashland
and kept wondering where the sa-
looms were, as she saw no indications
of either drunken men or rowdies.
Besides Ashland find two or three
small towns down the road without
saloons, and the people in all of them
tell me there are practically no
drunks and no rowdies in any of
them.
