PURCHASED HERE
Horse Buyer Secured Twenty Three

Thursday Of last Week. ).

drcds OF Horses to St. Louis

A horse buyer was in Denison on
Thursday of last week and purchased
twenty-thrce head of horses, to be
shipped to st. Louis and then to
Europe for war purposes. The price
paid for the horses was very good.
The horses were shipped to Des
Moines, where special train load of
500 horses was made up and shipped
to st. Louis. The shipment is billed
to Holland. Nugent- Maxwell Brothers,
who have contracts for buying horses
for the English, Belgian, French and
Italian governments, and who are the
sole representatives of the Italian gov
ernment in this respect in the United
States. Although the Des Moines
Horse Sales company has shipped
more horses in one week than arc in
cluded in this order it is considered a
remarkably large one and is the larg-
est single shipment which has been
handled from this city.
The Des MOines company has set
two records since the foreign govern
ments began buying horses in this
country. One is that of having sold
more horses than any other firm in
the United States and the other, that
of having sold the largest number of
horses in any one day to one man. One
sale alone made to an English buyer
included 3S3 horses.
The trainload of horses which was
shipped to st. Louis is made up of
four classes of animals. one for each
of the four nations buying through the
st. Louis agency. The English buy
the best horses. taking only those that
are fully matured and are between S
and years old. The French and Bel
gian government take lower grade
of horses and the Italians take what
is known as an English horse, but is
q younger class than will be accepted
by the British.

Speaking of the trip, Mr.. Osterman
said that when he first left New York

roads. taking into consideration the
fact that the heavy rains of the past
two months have done considerable
damage to them.
The purpose of the trip is not only
to show the practicability Of an ocean

already been effected for displaying
