Colorado Ideal Home of Horses.

Denyer-Colorado is the ideal place
to produce horses for army purposes.
declares the annual report of the
State Racing Commission presented
to Governor Ammons. Reasons for
that claim are cited: First, because
horses bred here have harder bone
and feet, as well as greater lung
power superinduced by the dry eli
mate of the plains; second, Colorado
horses can endure more and go far
ther on less feed than horses bred in
states to the east; third, Colorado can
mature horses more cheaply than
other states. Statistics from the I'm
ion Stock Yards of Denver are sub
mitted in the report, showing that in
two weeks 1,500 head of horses have
been sold to foreign nations at war.
200 of which were cavalry mounts
and the rest artillery horses The av-
erage price to the breeder for the for
mer kind was s127; for the latter.
$152.
