Many Horses Slaughtered.

The British army sends between 400
and 500 horses a week to Paris butch
ers to be slaughtered and put ON sale
in the horse markets. The French ar
my furnishes a smaller number. The
total makes such an important contri-
button to the feed of Paris that the
horse butchers are using it a. an argu-
ment against the closing of their estab-
lishments two days 4 week along with
the other butchers. The result, they
say, will he that a great many wounded
horses that are now killed at the front
then shipped 10 Paris to be dressed and
sold, will be buried on the spot with,
out profit to anyone
