MANY IRA 0RS
FOR THISSTATE
Government Wants Horses
For. Artillery-Tractor to
Replace Many of Them.

Bismarck, N. D., Oct. 14.-Within
the next few months 1t is PROBABLE
that thousands Of North Dakota farm
horses will be converted into small.
medium priced tractors. The short
age Of labor common throughout the
northwest during the last summer n
especially evere in North Dakota a
converted many progressive
to the tractor. Farmers realize that
one man, with a good tractor, can do
the work of three or four men using
teams. They appreciate, too, that a
steel horse eats only when 1t works.
while old Dobbin has just as hearty
an appetite during the long winter.
when he is resting, as he does during
the, summer months. And q shortage
OF feed has been one Of western
North Dakota's gravest difficulties.
Following a conference with Isaac
Lincoln of Aberdeen, Commissioner of
Agriculture and Labor John n. Hagan
market within the next six months for
the hardy. medium-weight horses
common to the Dakota farm. The
government soon will be. in the
market for such animals for its light
and heavy artillery. Horses raised
in our state will meet the require
ments." said MIR. Hagan today. the
government will want horses weighing
1880 to 1.400 pounds for light artil-
lery and those weighing 1.400 to 1.600
pounds for heavy artillery. They
:. should be between five and ten years
old. For the lighter type the govern
ment expects to pay 1925 and $3.50;
for heavier horses, between $50 and
$3.50. 1 urge that farmers having this
type of horses keep them in condition
for market"
Any good. light tractor will do the
work Of four horses. and some OF
these machines can be bought for the
price the government will pay for
four horses. Farmers find they car
plough more land with tractors thar
with horses and that the average
farm hand prefers to work with a
tractor. In view of these facts. and
because-feed lis not plentiful in many
places west of the river. Bismarck
dealers are inclined to believe that, j.
