There is a great demand for horses
IN the country at present. There was
time when Denmark exported horses.
but now she finds herself in position
where she has to import them instead
In 1906 Denmark exported 10000
horses; in 1905 $4,000, and in 1907 only
10000. But now matters have beer
completely reversed. The demand for
horses in Denmark has been increa sine
owing to the fact that the tenants seem
to need more of them than ever before.
The country will this year import
about $4,000 horses. The horses i'm.
ported are mostly Of a small type and
as rule are purchased by the ten.
ants. '-.. -..- H.. .v-
Denmark has an interesting fish ex.
hiblt at the Trondhjem Fisheries ex.
hlbltlon and several of the exhibitors
are prize winners. Large delegations
of Danes have been attending the ex.
hibition at Trondhjem and many OF
them have taken advantage of the
tourist rates and gone farther up the
country.
The dairy, hog and chicken indus
tries OF the country are steadily in
creaslng. The value of the export OF
eggs. pork and butter from Denmark
during the first five months Of tbs
present year is no less than 5,eO4 OOC
crowns in excess Of the shipments dur.
Ing the same period last year.
During the recent Oly1rpian games
over one hundred athletes participated
IN the athletic contests. The govern
ment appropriated 1900 crowns to de.
