museums" We have heard some such
prediction a thousand times. What is
the fact? Reports of the department
Of commerce show that In the last II
years the number of horses In the
United States, far from decreasing.
has increased over 80 per cent. In 1915
il was estimated there were more than

at $1,000 100000. Manifestly. the
horse Is not so easily crowded out az

the fact that racing is less popular and
automobiles multiply beyond all count.
the horse more than holds his own.
