North Dakota. l1O.2 per cent; Iowa

Of relative degrees Of equine cussed-

to identify the worst horse In the

Only in the West does value A.

an animal IL worse than valueless.
But in the West-the, land of the
broncho and those dauntless riders
who subjugate the outlaw strain in
the broncho's temperament - the

In the worst horse" contest,
owners Of outlaw bronchos will enter
their animals and provide riders for
them. The cowboys doing the riding
will be required to observe the same
rules as govern the championship

will not be Of the merits Of the rider.
but Of the strength. cunning and

as 1t is expected that the worst horse
In every state In which the broncho
thrives will be entered 1t well may be
said that the result of the contest will
be Identification of the worst horse In
