the ticket with him for lieutenant gov

the obnoxious man.
About two o'clock Odell's father,

Horses san in Demand.

Happily the horse has a faculty for
upsetting the gloomy predictions that
he is fated to be put out of business
by the automobile. The horse business
has kept right on developing in spite
of the fact that the automobile indus
try has been engaged in similar I'M
dertaking. The demand for horses is
still great. The supply of some
classes of them is inadequate The
prices are high. The automobile may
scare the horse into the ditch, but
it isn't likely to crowd him to the wall.
There will always be a field for the
horse, as there will always be a field

twice as much as a lecturer as his con-
