The most desirable horse for Kansas
requirements is one that performs the
work required most efficiently and eco
nomically, and sells at the greatest pro-
fit, if sale is desired or necessary, is
the opinion of DR.. C. W. McCampbell,
assistant professor of animal hus-
bandry.
"Under average conditions" said
DR.. McCampbell, "this horse will be
one in which we will find combination
Of size, substance, style, step, and
quality. The urgent need of today in
horse raising is a greater appreciation
upon the part of the horse raiser of
style, action, and quality in big horses.
Nothing adds more to the value of big
horse than these three things.
'tIn fact, a big horse without style,
action, AMI quality is very undesir-
able, unsatisfactory. and expensive
form of motive power on the farm and
IN the city. Each year sees greater
discrimination against and less demand
for inferior horses, both large and
small, and corresponding increase in
values of high class horses Of three
kinds, wagon horses, chunks, and
drafters. Horses of these three classes
are derived from draft breeds.
Wagon horses weigh from 1 $50 to
1,50O pounds and show style, action,
finish, and substance to a marked de-
gree. Chunks weigh from ], $50 to l.
600 pounds and are, as the names i'm
plies, compactly built, averaging about
two inches less IN height than wagon
horses of equal weight. They, too,
must show plenty of quality, action,
and especiallG substance TO sell well.
''Drafteas weigh from !, 900 pounds
up, the bigger the better if they have
style, substance, action, and finish and
are snappy movers.
The most desirable horse for Kan
sas requirements then is the one that
renders efficient services, increases
enough in value while rendering this
service to pay for his keep, and finds a
ready market when fully mature and
ready to go. Well made horses weigh
ing from 1 800 pounds up, with style,
substance, quality, and action, will dc
these things if they are bred anC
handled properly. -

HENRY FORD SAYS D0DGEs
TRIED TO MAKE HIM BUY
Automobile Man Angry During Ex-
animation in Suit Brought to
Prevent Extensions.

DETROIT. Mich, November 10
Henry Ford. president Of the Ford Mo-
tor Car Company, testifying today at
the hearing of the Dodge brothers in
junction case. declared that the petit
toners. John F. and Horace E. Dodge.
sought to force him to buy their inter-
est In the Ford Motor Car Company.
The Dodges own 10 per cent of the
stock. and Ford said they demanded
S3o.O00.00O for their holdings.
Ford declared that the Dodge broth
ers told him he must buy the stock "or
they would harass me in everything I
tried to do
Shaking his finger at one of the at
torneys for the Dodges, Ford said: IF
you sat there until you were petrif1ed
I wouldn't buy the Dodge stock, nor
would I buy that of any other stock
holder"
Fords testimony was given before a
circuit court commissioner who is
taking dispositions which will be sub
dell. Recently Judge Mandell granted
the Dodge brothers a temporary in
junction restraining Ford from using
the immense profits of his company to
double or treble the capacity of his
factories. The Dodges demand that the
profits be disbursed as dividends and
the present hearing is upon their petit
ton to have the temporary injunction
made permanent.
