CUBA BUYS HORSES
TO IMPROVE BREED

Havana. Cuba, May lin carry
ing out his systematic campaign
for the Improvement of the breed
OF horses in Cuba. President Mem
ocal, of the Republic of Cuba. COM
missioned an agent to purchase
mares during the
closing days OF the recent Cuban
American race meet. This prac-
tice Is likely TO be continued so
that Americans who race in Cuba
will md q ready market for their
surplus stock and save the expense
Of the return trip to the States.
II Is only recently that the sub
ject of horse BREEDING has been
seriously considered by the Cuban
authorities. whose supply Of caval-
ry remount and police horses has
been PIT chased in the United States
to the number OF from 5000 to 5000
annually. Finding the supply d.
minishing due to the drain of the
war and sensing the need OF a bet
ter horse type, the President and
his advisers resolved to breed their
own chargers and at the same
time raise enough animals of the
army type to have some to sell to
friendly nations.
