1t is said the average life of the
horse in the European war is only
about ten days. II this is true, 1t IS
no wonder the prices being paid here
are low, $50 to Sl50. Buyers who say
they are buying for the British v
airy are not demanding the best
grade Of animals, The demand is for
a cheap class of horses, and If these
are cleaned out it will certainly have
a tendency to make the other grades
worth more money.

E. M.RoWLAND, of the Haas-Lie-
Der Company, of Mexico, has the
thanks of the Ledger for a splendid
address by Oscar B. McGlasson, pres
ident of the National Wholesale Gro
Gerry Association, Of the United
States which is of great interest to
the public generally at this time. Mr..
McGlasson takes the position that
American made goods have been adj
vanced very little in price since the
war and that there has been too
much talk about the high prices of
the necessities of life. The reason
that sugar is much higher is on ac-
count Of so much beet sugar coming
from abroad but home made and
homegrown products which should
be good enough for everybody, have
advanced very little If any in price.
Mr.. McGlasson closes his most appro-
pirate and timely address with the fol
lowing: "The rocking Of the boat, the
big business boat of this country,
ought to cease. That big business
boat that carries the life. the very ex-
istence Of the nation has run against
many snags in the past year, and has
been dangerously near going into dry
dock.
"A master hand is at the helm Of
this, the greatest government on
earth. II has required e master mind
To keep this nation free from serious

plomacy, the intuition of a Lincoln,
