It was known that the subscriptions

What was termed a love feast at the

sDoct0- Kulp was the speaker at the
meetins Hardly an eye remained UNI
diE1med at the close of his talk, which
painted IT. the plainest terms the ruth
lass and frightful practices of the
Huns.
KuIp Made Good Talk.
fDocto' Kulp told the story of the
canadian contingent in England's
first hundred thousand and the his
toric me ssage they sent back to their
comma n 1er when the order came to
retire. The message was Retire and
be dan,.sed to you The Canadians
went fo' ward that night and occupied

We are going to do this thing so

point in mis- talk. THE nation that
mas stained its escutcheon with the
black bar sinister of the gas attack
and the horror of liquid fire has put
hi G1a hot
wiped out in a hundred years of
decent life. The nation that intro

that This is your war and it is you
that will have to win it. If you say
stop the boys will have to stop. But
you will not say stop, for the boys are
battling for the very honor and safety
of the American women, and the
women of our allies
There is nothing that America
holds that is too good to be placed at
the disposal of the boys in the
trenches" continued Doctor Kulp,
and all this talk of duplication by
the parsimonious ones is foolish If
those boys want palace for each one
of them behind the trenches it is up
to US to give it to them if possible.
All that we are able to do when all
has been said is to merely scrape the
surface of that hell over there with

Substitutlons for the horse have so
far failed to diminish his number on
farms, where he Is mostly bred. The
railroad did not verify the common
prophecy Of the horses gloomy future
nearly century ago, and many years
elapsed before the heyday Of the BIZ
cycle arrived with it's expected menace
20 the horse. That machine oil pleas
ure and toll diverted attention from
the first real antagonist Of the horse,
the electric street railway, and this
was a formidable one. Street-car sery-
ice could not have been developed by
horses to the extent that 1t has been
carried by electricity, yet there was an
enormous displacement Of horses
when they no longer pulled street cars.
It Is roughly estimated that 100000
horses would be required to move the
street cars now in city service, and
that farmers would need to keep a
stock Of perhaps 100000 horses to
produce this supply. Yet, horses Kept
on increasing.
Apparently the most effective foe Of
the horse has appeared In the last ten
years in the motor vehicle, although
its Importance in this respect is pop-
ularly exaggerated. According to sta
tistics collected by the United States
department of agriculture, the total
state registrations of motor cars were
$4,000 in 1906, about 100000 in 1910,
over 100000 in 1912, over ?, 100000 In
1915, and 3,512,996 in 1916.
Automobiles do not merely displace
horses but many are used by men in
occupations dependent on either horses
Or automobiles for personal movement,
such as real estate agents, builders,
and some merchants and manufactu-
ters, and there is also the large public
automobile passenger service in cities
and, again, the large number of auto
mobiles owned by farmers in place of
driving horses.
With motor trucks and commercial
vehicles the case is different. Here is
clearly complete substitution of fuel
power for horse power, 1t is the opin-
Jon that every motor truck on the av-
erage displaces three horses. The state
records often merge the registration
Of motor trucks and commercial We.
hlcles with that of automobiles, but,
to the extent that separation is
made, it is known that 1862 Of the
former were registered In 1916. Prob

tor trucks and commercial vehicles

represents stock on farms Of few
million horses, and to these must be
added the stock eliminated by the au-
| tom0bile.
Last Of all, the farm tractor has APP
peared, with conjectural possibilities,
but as vet with 40 perceptible dis
placement of horses.
Unusual and large demands for
horses for war purposes have been
made since the autumn of 1914. Dur
ing the ten years preceding. from 49,
600 to 10000 horses were exported an
nually, while the imports were from
5000 to 5000, so that the net exports
were no appreciate draft on domes-
tic production. In the first year Of the
war 289,340 horses were exported, In
the second 357, 1858, and In the third
278,674 horses, and within less than a
year the needs of the army of this
country have called for large number
of horses.
Notwithstanding the various forces
that have been working against in
crease Of horses at their breeding
places, or rather, in common expecta-
ton, to reduce their numbers at q
strong rate, the fact Is that horses on
farms increased at the average yearly
rate Of $4,000 since 1900 and more
than that since 1910, or $4,000 per
year. Per capita Of the population,
farm horses tended to increase from
0.19 Of ] horse In 1850 to O.24 in 1eeO
and 1900, after which the decline has
been to 0.20ls in 1918, or stilI above
1850. At the same time, however, By
means Of machinery the farm horse
has constantly gained as a producer.
Strange though 1t may seem. the av-
erage price OF a horse at the farm,
ali ages and conditions included, is
less than 1t was four years ago, and
even eight years ago. Since 1897
horse prices at the farm for January
/ had risen from $s1.51 to $11I.46 by
1911. the highest average In the de-
pertinent Of agriculture's record Of So
