GREELEY MAN INVENTS A

H. T. Bacon of Greeley has patent

improvement over the present equip
ment for work horses and one that is
destined to come into general usage

New Future ofDriving Horses
BY A. L. Camp

contrary 10 Icd0ohopAS
ton the prices and demand for this
type of horses has increased rapid!
and steadily since the time OF the
automobiles advent, although 1he
latter has been so extensively used
for both business and pleasure. IL
was thought by many that the ma
chine would entirely supersede, al
least, the driving horse. That such
did not result has been shown by the
prices the horse has brought, up 10 a
period of about one year ago, when
the summit of value seems to nave
been reached After that for about
six months little or no change was
noticeable. Then began decline
not rapidly-but of an easy declina-
tion.
Though reference has been made
above to the automobile, that errac-
tic and expensive incarceration had
absolutely no bearing upon the horse
market, neither of price or demand.
These were occasioned by the same
conditions that produced the rise in
values of all other articles from real
estate down to the most insignificant
of merchandise. These conditions
we're the outcome of what is termed
an era of prosperity. This is, how
ever, missioner, for none are more
prosperous than before and many are
less SO. 1t was instead an era of
extravaganza. Though the things
one sold brought almost fabulous
prices-far more than ever before
the things one bought were equally
high, and no more profit remained
between selling and buying than had
done SO at former values. 1t was
moreover an era of debt, mortgages
and graft. Had this condition not
prevailed the demand for automo-
biles would not have been nearly so
great. With the acme of prices for
horses also occurred that of all
things else, which at first being
hardly precepitable, increased in ra-
pidity like stone rolling from
mountains top, until the fall in de-
mand and prices is at present some
what startling. Demands aside from
necessities are now few, and even
with these a big reduction has OBJ
tanned.
There is now most laudable and
prevalent desire to retrench, and this
retrenchment extends to every line.
The merchant is doing less, the lum-
ber dealer comparatively nothing.
The building contractor is idle. The
ring at the smiths anvil is only in
termittant. Railroads have decreas-
ed their labor rolls, and the laborer
finds himself unemployed. Many are
forced to sell something to live. SO
There is assuredly financial depres-
sion. The banks realize it and are
preparing.
The driving horse is supersensitive
to the effects of such6onditions-
much more so than hiS6rothers, the
drafter and mule, which partake
more of the nature OF necessities like
cattle and hogs. So sensitive is the
light horse that 1t felt this coming
cessation OF demand more than two
years ago, and the effect was mani
tested by the falling away Of their
breeding. The number OF mares Of
this type bred in 1909 was scarcely
80 per cent of the number bred IN
each OF the five preceding years.
Almost SO per cent Of the remainder
were INBRED in 1910; so that only
about 25 per cent were bred in 1910.
which were SO in 1908. These are
