HORSE SALESMAN GETS
- GOOD FIGURES IN EAST

e. S. Delaney of Valley City, who
handled horses for North Dakota
farmers. in cooperation with the North
Dakota Farm Bureau federation, sell
Ing them in the east at auction largely
through county farm bureau organiza
lions there, recently returned after
spending four months in New York and
New England states, and reports that
47S head of horses were handled. The
expense was about $47 to SOL per head.
"The top individual brought $277.5O,"
said Mr.. Delaney. HE belonged to
Alex Currie of Cando. The top team
in price, which was not the best team
shipped east, brought $50. They were
from Casselton load. The next best
team brought $500. They belonged to
R. ]. Lyness of Fessenden.
"The top load was one shipped out
Of Cando with Alex Currie in charge
They brought an average of $252.5O
each. The next highest load was ship
ped out Of Casselton, "a horses in
charge of James Farrell, which brought
an average of $500 per head.
r "We got $15 to sos more than would
have been received for the horses had
they been sold through the regular mar
ket channels. am convinced that is
conservative statement and this was
accomplished in the face of the heav-
lest run Of horses. known in 10 years
and a market drop of at least $50 a
head. At least 80 per cent of the
horses we handled could not have been
sold in the markets at Chicago or Buff
falo. They were too plain and COM
mon. We took them into the country
md through the cooperation of the
county agents were able to place them
with buyers who were glad to get them
without paying heavy dealer commits
