HORSE COMING BACK
INLAST STRUGGLE

iliy Associated Press to The Banner1
CHICAGO, March 3l--The horse is
coming back in a last struggle to hold
his place against the progress of the
automobile, tractor, truck and air.
plane. The Department of Agricul-
ture estimates that horses on United
States farms increased from 19,S33.-
900 in 1910 to 21,1O9,OO0 on January
/, 1920. Mules increased too accord
ing to the estimates.
The Horse Association of America,
with headquarters here, propose to
encourage the breeding. rearing and
use of horses. The Association which
is non.profit organization, incorpor-
ated under the laws of Illinois, is
backed by horse breeders represent
ing all breeds of horses. by the sad
dlery and harness interests. by the
horseshoe manufacturers and master
horseshoers, by the hay, grain and
feed interests, and by the carriage
and wagon builders of America.
THE horse is-next to man himself
the most efficient power unit in ex-
istence. delivering more effective mo-
tive energy in proportion to energy
consumed than any other type of mo-
tive-power unit when the work done
as a self-reproducing, self.repairing
organism, is taken itno account de-
clared Wayne Dinsm0re, secretary of
the association.
Millions of horses have worked
from the time they were three years
old until they were twelve years of
age without the expenditure of a dol
lar for repairs" Mr.. Dinsmore said.
THE horse carries reserve power
which the truck doesn't have. and
therefore does not often get stuck in
tight place like the motor vehicle"
Mr.. Dinsmore said the horse can
do short haul work just as rapidly as
n truck and from 25 to 40 percent
cheaper.
During the recent snowstorm in
New York when every means of NOV
ing traffic was said to have failed but

merchants paid as high as fifty dol.

that no girl who had ever been enter

IT had been a trying one for her. She
was conscious every time that she saw
the commanding officer at the post that
all he did was for her. She had worn

him say so many times In the old
days that blue was his favorite color,
and she wanted to please him because
he was doing so much for her.

over her own cnre-eree days and her
unwise choice Of a partner She would
try TO save Helen from the same fate.
She wondered II the girl had come
really to care for any of the men who
had danced attendance on her. None
OF them probably cared a straw for
the girl herself or course. they
rushed her to please the colonel.
There was IA little lieutenant who had

lips. The little visitor was in a flame
