M motor cars were manufactured In
the United States last year. and the
manufacturers estimate tina; twice the
output will be sold IN 1910 Has the
price OF horses been lowered? VIII
II be affected In the future!
Men who deal In horses say that the
horse Industry In general not only has
been unaffected by the development OF
power vehicles. but the price OF
horses has increased more than NIFTY
per cent. within the last Ave year.
To prove this assertion. the horse
lover refers 10 the last report OF the
United States department o. asri-
culture. The report contains several
complimentary statements about Dob
bin.
The government statistician has
found that since 1890 horses have In
creased si.2 per cent. In price and
33.s per cent In number. Two years
ago there were 100000 horses In
Kansas and $4,000 In Missouri The
average value head was ss7 In Kan
sas and SIS In Missouri One year
later-January 1. is0s-the number
OF horses In Kansas had increased 10
1.152.000. with an increase In value OF
two dollars head. In Missouri on
the same date the number OF horses
was $4,000 and their value had In
creased three dollars a head.
The horse lover Is careful 20 explain
that In arriving at the values given
the statistician has had to estimate
thousands of horses worth not more
than si.4s each. which brings down
the average.
