perceptible increase in the movement
of horses -vas noted. The movement
at first was almost exclusively to can
ada perhaps on account OF unfavOr-
able shipping facilities on the gulf at
that time Now a large per cent of
the war horses are going to the south
from this part of the country. The
horses from the northern states are
being rushed into Canada and those
from the middle west and eastern
states are being shipped to Newport
News
1t is said that the horses from the
western states, sturdy. reliable and eff
ficient animals, are more in demand
by the English cavalry officers than
the famed ones from the Kentucky
blue grass region.
