Difficulty is being experienced b.
many farmers In obtaining work horses

10 w. H. Peters. chief Of the animal
husbandry division of the University
Of Minnesota, by the number Of In
quiries made by him and members of
his staff as to the available supply sf
farm work horses.
There isn't any doubt that for the
last two years the number Of colts
raised has been less than the number
OF horses that have died." said Pro
fessor Peters. as the inevitable re-
suit Of this condition already making
itself evident? If this condition IN
maintained an acute shortage Of work
horses Is bound to result.
Farmers who have good sound
mares will find it profitable to breed
them. This will he particularly true
if the mares can he mated to a good
sound stallion Of desirable draft type.
In communities where such stallion
is not available any farmer with a half
dozen or more mares will And II prof
