Never in the history of this country,
or any other, for that matter, has the
heavy draught horse been in such de-
mand or so valuable as he is today.
Indeed, he is the most valuable asset
the farmer has who breeds him right.
No mechanical contrivance or motor
vehicle has been discovered that will
fill the place Of this magnificent, ami
mate creature of flesh and blood, or
will any continuance of any kind be
perfected for many a long day, that
will accomplish what he can, and do
the work as we'll and so thoroughly,
as well as, as cheaply as he can.
Motor trucks have failed not only
to cope with the heavy loads imposed
upon the brewers dray for instance,
and the hauling of cumberous and
