Future of lite Horse Industry
Occupying such an important position
in the minds of those interested in ngri
cultural prosperity, the future of the
horse must be regarded as a sabject of
wide interest. Every now and then we
Lear pessimistic Biatementa made as to
the demand and value of draft atd light
J.orsfs in the near future. In this con
nection, it will be interesting to review
tiie figures regarding cert nr. features of
the horse industry in recent years. In
!' X there were a trifle over 13,500,000
horses in the United States, while in
'XS there were practically half as many
aiore, or nearly 20,000,0?0. The value
of horses in the United States in 1900
was placed at $603,000,000, while the
Talue for 1938 was put at three times as
much, which is, indeed, an interesting
act and bears out the statement which
we have frequently made that there la a
ifroiUDg demand for horses every vear.
Tnia io the only way that this large in
crease in value can be accounted for.
Tbe iaats are still more interesting
when we consider the rapid increase in
the Dumber of automobiles in the period
doubt be for a better class. Speed and
stamina wiil ba more sought, as Ihe ad
vantage of rahid transit has been illus
trated in a very conclusive manner since
the introduction of tt.e auton obile. Ii
ihe latest tvpes f automobiles, or those
which wiil be evolved the next few years
prove to be practical for c?nii!ry diiviru
under all conditions, it is not impossible
to believe that a better class of heavy-
horses will be kept on the farm. Thisl
would be true on account of the fact that
there wou'd be less of a demand for the
mediuri weight orgeneral purpose horse
since the farm horse would be uaed sole
ly for work in the field, and the extreme
heavy drafter would be more widely
adopted Iowa Homestead.
States Co-operate With
Forest Service to Ob
tain Forest Fire
Statistics.
State officials, associations, and
individuals will co-operate with the
United States Forest Service in an
attempt to get accurate records of
all fire looses in Washington and
Oregon this summer. The Forest
Service will compile a report show
ing bv counties, the area burned
over, of merchantable timber, non
merchantable timber, and cat over
land; the quantity and value of the
timber destroyed, and the cost of
fighting tne fires. In this way the
Federal and State Governments as
well as the public will be enabled
to obtain at once systematic infot-
aretween 19C0 and 190S It will be seen mation concerning all fire losses in
fcbat the borse not only he'd his on
daring this Deriod, but increased in pop
ularity and value. The fact wilt seem
to indicate that we are further than ever
from the time when we can supplant the
Ii )rae with steam, electric, or gas power.
The automobile is baviog the same effeot
n the horse industry that the bicycle
Had, but of course in a larger way. There
were many who predicted that the bi
cycle would greatly reduce the future de
stand for hortes; however, everyone has
had an opportunity to witness the fallacy
f the argument. The horses which are
taw supplanted by the bicycle would in
deed make a very insignificant number,
for the bicycle i8 now chiefly used by
tl.oee who can not afford to own horses.
A good many have ventured the pre
diction that the popularity of the auto
mobile among farmers would to an ex
tent rtduce their interest in horses. This
rtay be true to a certain extent, yet we
doubt if the bor e industry would suffer
an? ii any farmer in the count'v took up
the more rapid mode of travel;ng. The
majority of farmers have always held
that the keeping of driving horses is too
expensive and, while it must be admit
ted that it is equally expensive to main
tain an automobile, the saving of time
which tan be made in traveling to and
from, town or elsewhere with an automo
bile offsets considerably the cot of main
tenance. It is not difficult to Imagine
that the introduction of the automobile
wiil Lave a favorable influence on both
Iirfit end heavy horses. The demand
these states.
Heretofore, this information has
been only partially collected. The
Forest Service has secured compre
hensive reports from rangers on
the National Forests, but from no
other sourca. The State and Gov
ernment statistics were in different
form and not brought together.
Consequently, although those in
terested in the subject know in a
general way, that fire entails an
enormous loss to the community
every year, they have been unable
ial action ith any definite proof. IH MoiTOV Loilllty.

Hashed to Lawis from Washington
today. Not ouly are whiskered
gentlemen ineligible for jury duty,
but their usefulness as congress
men has ceased, according to Mr.
Lyon.
It happened this way: Repre
sentative William Russell Ellis,
who hails from Pendleton, Oregon,
and is the duly accredited ambas
sador from some 300,000 citizens,
bad a fine set of whiskers. They
were admired of all whiskers in
cocgre68. Snowy white for Mr.
Ellis never chews tobacco they
wera as homelike as a set of in
stallment house lace curtains. In
the languge of a house jimitor, ut
tered today after the catastrophe,
"Them was beautiful whiskers."
Today after Speaker Cannon's
gavotl fell and Chaplain Coudeu
had uttered a ferveut prayer, a
gentleman at'ired in red whiskers
entered the chamber and peated
himself in R 'presentative Ellis'
seat. He got to windward of a
sunbeam and shone resplendent in
pinker whiskers than Senator Pel
fer ever aspired to.
"Hist!"' said Doorkeeper Lyon
"There is a butter-in."
Then he started for Mr. Pink
Whiskers to put a set of ball-bear
ing castors under him. -
"Beware!? said Aid - de - Camp
Kennedy, "that is Representative
Ellis."
"Ellis has white whiskers," falt
ered Lyon. "This man's are red.'
"S-h-," answered Kennedy, "they
might bear about the switch out in
Oregon."
