MANY HORSES EXPORTED

About a Million Have Been Shipped
Out Since the War Began.
The effect of the war on the demand
for horses has been important but
not so far reaching as many persons
have been led to believe, is the opin-
ion of DR.. C. W. McCampbell, asso-
ciate professor of animal husbandry
in the Kansas State Agricultural col
lege.
"Since the beginning of the waf
approximately 100000 horses
have been exported from the United
States" said Doctor McCampbell.
"This is large number when con-
sidered in the aggregate but when
compared with the total horse popu-
lation it has not been particularly
largely per cent of the whole or
one out of every forty horses
"The United States government
has not made heavy purchases to date
and the latest information from the
auartermaster generals office states
that only horses from six to 10 years
old weighing go to 1910 pounds are
being purchased.
"The British demand neater,
smoother, better made, better gated
and sounder horse than the French
and have been willing to pay more
for their horses. Most of the horses
taken have weighed less than 1,4OO
pounds-a type for which there is
very little commercial demand.
Marketmen express the opinion that
this class of horses would be selling
for $40 per head were it not for the
war demand"
In general the kind of horses that
are being taken for war purposes are
as follows:
French cavalry-mare or gelding
5 to 9 years old, weighing from 900
to 1850 pounds, and bringing at
point of inspection 500 to Sis.
Frenrh light artillery-mare or
gelding 5 to 9 years old, weighing
from 1890 to 1900 pounds, and
bringing f140.
British cavalry-mare or gelding
5 to 10 years old, weighing from
1,O5O to 1850 pounds, and bringing
$3.50 to $3.50.
French light artillery-mare or
gelding 5 to 10 years old, weighing
from 1880 to 1,450 pounds, and
bringing $14O to SITS.
British heavy artillery-mare or
gelding 5 to 10 years old, weighing
500 pounds or more, and costing
SITS to $500

started and stopped the fire from
spreading. Chief Kindschi informs
the Democrat that he will cause the
premises to be condemned. Several
times during the last two years the
department has answered calls in that
section and it is thought best to
eliminate any further trouble. This
will cause the barber shop of Cham
Der & Wall to have a new building or
move elsewhere. The lots on which
the three buildings stand are owned
by c. M. Light. The Democrat ex-
poets to see brick building erected
