MEDIUM AND HEAVY HORSES
Drafters and Southern Chunks,
According to Reports.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
Although horses on farms slightly
decreased in number in the United
States in 1918, this general fact is by
no means true in all sections. 1t is
true In the North from the Atlantic
Ocean to Iowa and Missouri, and on
the Pacific coast. but the reverse is
the fact In one-half of the South, and
In nearly the whole region between
the Mississippi river and the coast
states, except Iowa. Missouri. Arkan-
sas, Texas, and Oklahoma.
In the North and in the Pacific
states the kind of horse that is pre-
ferred on and off farms is changing.
The automobile owner does not want
a driving horse and the farmer with
an automobile does not need a dual
purpose horse--a work animal that
will also serve as a road horse. Me-
dium and heavy draft horses are the
new requirements.
This tendency Is reflected In prices.
In the Chicago market the mean price
of draft horses rose from S171 In the
FIVE years. 19O1-19O5. to s213 In 1914.
The mean price declined in the early
period OF the war to sos In 1915. but
ascended to s252 in 1916. fell TO s212
In 1917, and recovered to 500 in 1918,
or 20 per cent above the mean price
OF the five years. 1eO1-19o5. The class
Of horses known in the Chicago mar
ket as general" had the mean OF S143
In the first five years of the century
and reached as high mark as sl65
In 1913, but the mean for 1918 was
1852. or o per cent above that of the
five years.
Carriage teams and drivers are small
features Of the market There is little
demand for them and the supply corre-
spends. However. snowy carriage
teams sold for 1880 to $4,000 In
1918 "Bussers and trammers" have
been fully out OF the market for sew
eral years.
The active southern demand for the
southern chunks" sent the mean price
In Chicago from $51 In the Ave yenrs

Oat straw gave nearly as good re-
suits in feeding horses at light work
as timothy hay, according to an expert
ment at the Missouri experiment sta
ton. In each case 1,4O0-pound horses
were fed 10 pounds corn and cob meal

Is the need less urgent? We say no! There is a
condition existing right here in Cedar City which
renders it an undesirable place to rear boys The
use of tobacco among boys only entering their
teens is the rule rather than the exception, and
boy of this age who has not acquired this filthy
and harmful habit is not safe in any society to
be found here of this age Is not this sufficient
warrant to spur you to the conhict-you parents
of young sons and daughters?
Then do not delay another minute. Use the
pulpit encourage the press, enforce the laws now
in existence and by your counsel and example put
the ban of public disapproval upon this degrading
habit and exert your influence on every hand for
its encouragement.
1t is useless and waste of energy to pass laws
to prevent boys from smoking while we counten-
ance the use of tobacco by men. AS well try to
strange a dragon by pinching its tail. If society
is ever freed from this curse that has fastened
itself upon u.s. it must be torn out, root and branch
and cast from us. By every law of God and
science, so far as Later-day Saints concerned,
tobacco is bad Then cast it out!

alton of the decision to call the fair projected for
that place the "Parowan City Fair" as announced
last week, and the adoption of the suggestion of
The Record for the regular fair to be held here
that of the "Iron County Fair" Well, even if one
lacks originality the next thing to it is to be a
good "copyst'-an art in which our friend on the
north is an adept. If Parowan is stuck on our
selection of name, and no other will do her, why
use it, We suggest that the fair to be held in
Cedar City this fall be not confined by its title to
the narrow limits of this county. Chicago Worlds
Fair" will be more in keeping with the mammoth
show to be pulled off at this place, for we can as
sure our readers that things here will not be done
in half-hearted or understood manner 1t will
be fair that will cause the sleepy old county seat
sit up and take notice. State fairs will be tame
by comparison, and a new pace will be established
for county fairs in this neck o the woods. We adj
wise The Times to keep sharp lookout, and it may
obtain a lot of good suggestions to work on from
time to time, September IL, II and l3 are the
dates tentatively decided upon for holding the

modify Strange, isn't it? Why, we thought they

also intimated that if the people here don't quit
talking cement plant a crimp will be put in the
project for concrete highway through the south
ern part of the state, and that graded, surfaced
road will be substituted. But for all this we be-
lieve that the ceemnt plant is the proper thing for
this district of country, and we believe that suf
ficent capital can be obtained locally to build it.

one of the very first small cities to adopt the
and efficient method of town development-town
planning Definite action has not yet been taken
in the matter but the subject is receiving careful
thought and investigation and from reports given
out has the endorsement of the mayor and city
council This is the modern-the eficient-way
of developing communities and eliminating expen-
sive mistakes, and will place Cedar City in the
very front ranks of the progressive young cities of
the state.
