HORSE BUYERS DEMAND
GOOD BROKEN STOCK

Gillette. Wyo.-The first big horse
sale OF the season has closed here. Ac-
cording to G. ]. Boyle. who conducted
the sale, the bidding demonstrated be-
yond doubt that the demand is for
broke hcrses that are mature Up
broke horses secured very few bids
and many Of them were turned back.
The buyers would not touch mare
scarcely any bidding on young light
boned stuff.
Twelve buyers were here: one came
buqueraue. n M. mad stiil another
from st. Louis. They bought all of
the good horses that came into the
ring. Henry Harry was the auction
eer. In an interview with him he de-
ciared that the prices for good ami
mails were higher at the Gillette sale
than at any sale he had cried this
year. The outstanding feature of the
sale is this: Our herds must be i'm
proved by the Introduction of more
good stock. and horses should be
broke.
