Ulster lnsurrectknand the rebellion in
Dublin in 1918 were thoroughly discus

Price of Horses
on Down Grade
Washington, Dec 2. (U. P.) Hats
off to the faithful farm horse ! With
prices steadily soaring on almost every
thing under the sun, the cheery tidings
comes from the agricultural department
that farm horses are cheaper than, they
have been for 10 years. Prices paid this
year average $127.98. In 1910 the high
water mark was reached at $145.22; and
prices have fluctuated between the two
figures since then. Cynical folk, of
course, may argue that It's small con
solation to know farm horses are cheap
when they need a suit of clothes or a
roast of beef, but then you can't satisfy
everybody. ' iy- &
