FEWER HORSES IN AMERICA.
Notable Increase in Use of Motors
Mule Holding His Own.

Horses IN this country reached their
maximum in 1918 and since then have
been gradually decreasing, according to
data complied by the federal bureau
of crop estimates. While this state
ment applies to the United States as a
whole, the information gathered by the
bureau relates primarily to the supply
of horses on farms and ranches. the
gradual decrease of which is attributed
to motor vehicles. That the decline of
the horse on farms is not due merely
to the use of passenger automobiles is
indicated by a survey recently under
taken by approximately $4,000 crop re-
porters representing the bureau in all
parts of the country They have re-
ported the names of more than 10000
farmers who use motor trucks on their
farms.
But the extent to which these trucks
displace horses is problematieal. In
many cases the introduction of truck
on farm indicates provision for in
creased hauling rather than an actual
reduction in the number of horses used
The estimated number of horses on
farms and ranches JAM of this year
was 2l,l09.000, a decrease of $4,000
head, or IL per cent, compared with a
year ago. The total value of these ami
mails this year is estimated at 1892
$4,000 against $2,114,S97 900 last year.
This means an average value per head
for horses of all ages of $94.39, COM
pared with $9S.45 a year ago The aver

IN AUTO ACCIDENT.
Young Man From Norwich University
Also Injured-Cars Collided On
New Hampshire Road

FAIRLEE. June IA. = Howard r..
Root of Rutland was almost instantly
killed end Michael Glaseen, student
at Norwich university, Mortified, was
badly injured in an automobile accident
which occurred about l clock yester-
day morning on the New Hampshire
side of the river in the town of Oxford,
about two miles from this village
The young men had been attending
the weekend dancing party at Lake
Morev and were ON their way back to
Norwich university. In the same party
were Chester C. Bentley and Kenneth
McMinn of Rutland, with some young
ladies from Montpelier.
The party were obliged to make a de-
tour into New Hampshire on account
of repairs being made on the road be-
tween Bradford and Fairlee, and
shortly before reaching the Byron Dem
mis- place, whore the accident occurred,
Mr.. Root turned out to pass the car

car came suddenly on sharp. curve
and the rear wheels skidded in some
loose earth, the car swinging sharply
across the road Just what happened
thereafter is uncertain, but the ear
turned turtle, rolling over at least
twice before coming to a stop.
Mr.. Root was thrown clear of the
car and was struck on the temple, a
! sharp, severe blow, from which death
was practically instantaneous. Mr.
Glaseen was pinned under the car an6

bones broken or any serious injuries
other than bruises and a terrific shock

The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1920-06-14

age value per head ten years ago was
$l0S03 From these figures it is not
difficult to understand why the horse
market is regarded to be unsettled and
the future equally uncertain.
The best demand during the past year
has been in the South. while decreases
have occurred on the western ranges.
During the past two years the increased
demand for feed for high priced meat
animals has made it relatively more
costly to keep a horse on the farm.
Comments in the reports of field
agents to the bureau of crop estimates
throw interesting light on the decrease
in the number of horses The agent in
South Dakota writes: ''With the com
petition of the gas tractor there has
been a diminishing demand for the
horses of the class largely grown in this
state - The agent in Tennessee says:
THE raising of horses and mules has
declined to some extent in the past few
years. The auto is taking place of the
horse in many instances. With the
mule the decline is not SO marked, as he
is the mainstay of the farm. though a
few mules are being replaced by the
tractor
According to the field agent in New
Mexico there are no longer any wild
horses on ranges in his state and the
number of small Mexican COW ponies is
rapidly diminishing The field agent
in Utah states that horses are liabilities
rather than assets in his section Speak
ing of the decrease in certain sections
of Washington, the local representative
in that state says: 'Where a notable
