Mr.. Miller presented to the Senate

In "order to make doubly sure that

regular officers be not eligible to COM

'The Legion feels" Mr.. Miller said,
that eventually the country will real
lie that a sane, universal military

under the plan proposed in the Senate

each year than the present system of

Horses in this country reached their
maximum in 1918, and since then have
been gradually decreasing, according to
data compiled by the Bureau OF Crop
Estimates, United States Department OF
Agriculture. While this statement ap-
plies to the United States as whole,
the information secured by the bureau
relates primarily to the supply Of horses
on farms and ranches, the gradual de-
crease 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 undertaken by approx
imately $4,000 crop reporters represent
ing the bureau in all sections of the
country. They have reported the names
of more than $4,000 farmers who use
motor trucks on their farms. But the
extent to which these trucks displace
horses is problematical. In many cas-
es the introduction of a truck on a
farm indicates provision for increased
hauling rather than an actual reduction
in the number Of horses used.
The estimated number Of horses on
farms and ranches January ! of this
year was 2l,lO9,000, decrease of 373,-
600 head, or IL per cent compared with
a year ago. The total value of these
animals this year is estimated at ST.,
1882, 900, as against $2,114,S9 ,00C
last year. This means an average value
per head for horses Of all ages Of 1914 80
compared with $9S.45 a year ago. The
average value per head 10 years age
was $108.03.
