Her feed should supply the demand

At the risk Of perpetrating a pun,

At the bsgtnning Of the war anyway

great part played in war by the horse.
o'Neil Sewer, the great authority on
the history OF the development OF the
norse.. tells us:
AT the outbreak OF the great war
the German imperial studs of Graditz
and Trakenen were the domIciles OF
the British derby winning stations
Galtee More and Ard Patrick. each OF
which had cost the German Imperial
treasurer s110.000. also OF Biniou, a
French stallion and q Grand Prix du
Conseil Municipal winner. which had
cost another $4,000. Austria-Hungary
had In service French stallion called
Adam. which had seen stud service in
this country and had been purchased
1t public auction at Paris for SIS, 900 :
also Robert lie Diable, which had been
imported from Great Britain only a
few years before at a cost OF $50, 900,
along with the American stations Ayl.
ner. Blue Label. Fountainblue, King
Hanover, etc.
France had In service Hermis. a
Brighton Cup and Suburban handicap
winner on this side and upwards of
$500 other stations. one OF which,
Barney. a son OF our own Irish Lad,
had been presented to the Government
by the late Herman b. Duryea, of
Brooklyn.
"Hermis had been obtained by gift
from Edmond Blanc, the Monte Carlo
croesus. Germany maintained thor
oughbred stations at 1000 stallion sta

These stations served the mares of

nationalized the production of horses

her comparatively small standing army
OF less than 100000 soldiers of all
