WHY Can't Maine Sell Her
Horses

There have been recent announce
ments that representatives OF the
waring nations of Europe were pur-
chasing horses in America for army
purposes Headquarters for shipping
were maintained at Portland and
more recently in Boston. Owing to
lessened activity In numbering oper-
atoms, there has been a decided sur
plus of draft animals in the Kenne-
bee region. Knowing that many
horses were for sale, we recently
wrote to a buyer who was reported as
wanting 10000 horses for shipment
across the Atlantic, offering to put
him in touch with those wishing to
sell, and received the following reply:
C. H. HANSON, Incorporated
Horses, Horse Clothing and Supplies
Auction Sales Every Thursday
Lowell, Mass, Mar 90, 1915
Independent-Repo Co,
Skowhegan, Maine.
Gentlemen:
My contract calls for purchas-
a million years to buy 10000
horses In the New England states.
! thank you just the same for the
courtesy you proffer.
Very truly yours
J. s. HANSON.
We interpret the above to mean,
that while there are plenty of horses
for sale in Maine, they are so scatter
ed and trading conditions so incon-
venient as to make the purchasing in
large lots very slow, indeed practi-
cally out of the question where 10000
animals are wanted in bunch. Pre-
sumably the buyer above quoted can
20 to dealers in the West who can fur
nish him from one hundred to one
thousand horses in lump for i'm
mediate shipment. In Maine we have
no such conditions and buyer would
have to pick them up two, or at most
four or five in a place. 1t would
doubtless take years to bring about a
change which would meet the needs
VI tuoSe WIN Wdhe ini sc huihoOio VI
animals quickly, and moreover, the
conditions which call for the present
wholesale purchase of horses are not
likely to be repeated in our genera
ton. Perhaps, nevertheless, the above
incident may be worthy of study with
view to developing horse market
conditions In Maine 80 that buyers
may be more frequently attracted to
this territory.
