The one with n wealth of crimson fluid
And the steel blue tint in the eye.
The one who moves with earnest mien.

Who feels the prize already his own.

FUTURE OF THE HORSE.
Can the Heavy Draft Animal Survive
the Motor Truck?

the Motor Truck?
The heavy draft horse is doomed.
He will not vanish suddenly, but his
hour has struck. Motor vehicles al
ready are displacing him in cities. The
cheap farm tractor will do the same in
the country. In a few decades the
great, magnificent brutes will be little
more than memory. Their places
will be taken by bloodless machines,
that never whihny greetings to kind
master, never search ones pockets for
sugar-and never break their legs on
icy pavements or drag out friendless
old age under the whips of stupid.
greedy drivers.
When one thinks of these last con-
sideratiOns the horseless age doesn't
seem so gloomy prophecy. But If
man is wise there will be no horseless
age.
If man has any real wisdOm-and
that belief, though often disappointed,
never dies-the horse will be promoted
to the position of humanity's chief pet
and plaything, but always with a sub
stratum of usefulness which will keep
him from degenerating into mere toy.
The draft horse, the trotter-even the
general purpose animal'-may go, but
the saddle horse ought to stay and
thrive. Just as a medical prescription,
he is we'll worth while, for the old Eng
fish phrase that 1.-THE outside of horse
is the best thing for the insides Of a
man" still holds true, and as an in
structor of youth and means Of real
contact with nature he has no rival but
the dog.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.
