GERMANS CONTINUE TO
BUY AMERICAN HORSES
How They Send Them Home Is
a Deep Mystery to Dealers.

Lincoln, Neb.-Representatives Of all
of the principal nations at war in Eu-
rope are combng the west for horses
for the armies. Several of the horse
buyers bear titles: the majority of
them are men who have been at the
head Of great establishments in Bel
gium and France which formerly sup
piled America with draft horse stall
lions. One who was recently in Lin
coin was paid S2 day and expenses
for his work. Before the war he drew
$4,000 year as manager of a great
breeding stable in Normandy.
How the few German buyers get
their purchases through is mystery,
and they refuse to elucidate. They
make it plain that that is their own
business, and they keep on buying.
Some Of the largest dealers in this
section have been asked to bid on Il
25,0O0 head shipment for the German
government payable by drafts on New
York.
In the beginning spectators and
business men jumped into the game.
taking large contracts or subcontracts.
The ruling prices for the grades de-
sired were $3.50 and $115. subject to
inspection, which was very rigid, and
large portion of each shipment was
rejected. Rather than carry these back
to the west the dealers sold them at
the points of shipment for what they
could get.
That there are horse traders in Eu-
rope and dealers with sharp eyeteeth
was proved by the fact that a number
of these rejected animals were ship
ped to Europe. the purchasers being
government agents, who took this
means of showing American dealers
some tricks in horse buying, purchas-
ing in the guise of contractors who de-
sired the animals for the northwest.
The fact that the greater part of the
supply in the west has already been
purchased or is in the hands of specu-
lators, holding for the raise they feel
certain will come with continuance
of the war, has led to letting down
of the inspection bars. Hundreds of
animals that formerly would have not
received a second lCok are now going
through. The stable boys say that
the fat ones are given the preference
White and gray horses are taboo
because they are shining marks on the
battlefield. The one thing the buyers
are particular about is the wind. They
require swift galloping for a block or
| two before the inspector decides.

WALKED
Distance Of ESQ Miles To
Join The Army

Wellington, New Zealand, May 2S-
a French naval reservist was at Tau
maranni, in the interior of the North
Island of the New Zealand group,
when the news of the world war
finally penetrated to that spot. He
Immediately decided he must return
lC Paris. TO do SO he had to reach
Wellington. He had no money and
being too proud to beg he set out on
foot The distance is 250 miles.
He would not accept any money
from kindly disposed persons he met
on the journey-only a little food.
He ended the long tramp at about
midnight a week after he started.
Not morsel of food had passed his
lips since the second day before and
a bowling, cold gale had almost
frozen him. Looking like an ordinary
tramp he accosted Wellington po-
liceman and asked to be locked up so
his case would come to the notice of
the French consul The policeman,
however, gave him meal, dry clothes
and bed and a few hours later he
embarked for France.

Levering will speak on Good Roads
Progress in Knox County" A. review
will be given Of what has been done
in the past, what roads are to be con-
structed this summer and what plans
are being made for the future. With
the determination of the route of the
Dixie" highway to Cincinnati, it has
become more and more important,
both for business and sentimental
reasons, that the through inter-county
highway between Cleveland and Gin
cinnati, by way of Mt. Vernon and
Columbus, be pushed to completion as
rapidly as possible.
AS this will probably be the last
meeting of the association until Sep
tember, and both of the addresses are

there will be large attendance. A
cordial invitation is extended to all
citizens, whether members of the as
sociation or not.
