Wild Horse. Become Valuable.

zone might think that in this day
the wild horse of the plains had pass
ed away. but 1t is a fact that there are
hundreds of untamed steeds on the
plains Of Arizona said II. A. Claypool,
ranchman, at the Ebbitt. 'In some
parts of the state wild horses are num-
| erous. Ranchmen few years ago shot
| and killed many of them to make room
for sheep and cattle. The horses now,
however, are SO valuable that the cow
hoys spend much of their time captur-
ing them. Whenever these animals are
captured they are broken, tanned and
used for saddle and other purposes.
The wild horse is not very easy to
capture. It's haunts are in the foot
hills, seldom being found in the high
attitudes. They are perhaps more cas-
lily captured in the spring than in the
summer or fall, because in the spring
they are weak, due to the cold of the
winter months.
"The wild horse is just as wild as the
deer, and is ever on the lookout for his
enemies, just as are other wild ami
mails found in the mountain ranges.
have seen cowboys run down several
fast saddle horses. and then fail to
capture them. When captured and
broken they are very hardy and useful
on the ranches. On large ranches a
number of horses must be kept in use
at all times. because the ranchmen are
in the saddle the greater part of the
day, and each man requires half a
dozen horses. When the cowboys start
after wild horse the animal invari-
ably heads for high point where
there is brush and the ground is rough.
He can leap over places where the
horse carrying man cannot cross. a
fact the wild animal seems to under
stand"
Arizona is becoming the greatest
sheep state in the west" added Mr..
Claypool. Probably not in several
years have SO many sheep and cattle
been on the ranges Of Arizona as this
year."-Washington Post.
