YEARS BIG HORSE TRADE

"The year now closing has been the
most prosperous in the history Of the
horse trade, notwithstanding the. fact
that the season opened with a gloomy
aspect said a member Of the firm of
Barrett & Zimmerman, the Midway
horse dealers, to a representative of
The Journal yesterday.
''The Minneapolis business has been
larger than ever before. This may be
accounted for by the fact that there was
a great demand for horses thruout the
northwest, which is fast settling up.
Hundreds of animals have been sold
here for the northern logging woods,
and the scarcity Of big horses thruout
the country, and the great demand
made them sell high. Minneapolis also
filled a contract for several hundred
had Of horses this season for the United
States government. ''
"More horses, of better quality, are
being sold than ever before, and indi
cations point to a still greater trade in
1906. This seems safe prediction fol-
the reason that vast amount of rail
road work is planned for next spring
and the influx Of people into the north
west, will create still greater demand
tho next twelve months. In fact the
outlook for the coming year looks very
BRIGHT "
