Feb. is a great deal of uneasiness in army circles over the problem of an adequate supply of army horses in the United States. The officials of the war department declare that cavalry light artillery mounted on ordinary draft horses would be next to useless, yet they cannot see where a i sufficient supply of lighter horses may be secured In case of war. Two prin- cipal causes have contributed to the i big' and growing shortage of horses suitable for army purposes. The first of these is the remarkable success that has attended the efforts of the department of agriculture to get the farmers of the country to raise draft horses; the other is the automobile.

At the end of the civil war there were almost no heavy draft horses in the United States. Then followed an era of education for the farmer, in which it was pointed out that he would find it to his interest to raise draft stock rather than lighter animals. The process of education was slow; but it has been so sure that now the farmers of the country are breeding draft horses almost exclusively. They find such animals better suited for farm work, and in the past they have found a much more attractive market for siurplus horses of this for those of lighter weight. Automobile shortage.

The other principal cause for the growing shortage in the number of lighter horses Is the automobile. People who used carriage horses a decade ago use the automobile now. Men who always had saddle horses a decade ago are satisfied with a touring car now. The result is that the city demand for lighter horses for carriage and saddle purposes has fallen off, while the demand for draft horses, in spite of the growing use of the automobile truck, has continued to increase. The expansion of American industry has been going forw'ard even more rapidly than the breeding of draft horses and the building of auto trucks.

FlorseH Scarce. There Is another element in the horse situation that occasions alarm to the army officer who would see an adequate supply of military horses to meet the demands of a big war. That is the exportation of nearly all of the racing stock. The prohibition of race track gambling is admitted by most people to be right and 1 proper, but it has resulted in dozens of the best sires in the country being shipped to England and elsewhere, giving those countries just that much advantage over us in the question of a future supply of army horses. The department of agriculture and the war department have joined hands in trying to get the horse breeders of the coiintry to breed enough light horses to meet the prospective, as well as the immediate, demands of the United States army.

It is pointed out that the outbreak of histillties In this country would require 50,000 light horses at once. It is likewise pointed out that the number of horses needed annually in the case of war w'ould be very large. During a single year of the civil war the federal government bought nearly 200,000 hordes, and the capture of more than 20,000 was reported. This required a daily supply of some 600 horses. During eight months the cavalry of the army of the Potomac was twice remounted, nearly 40.000 horses being required.

Under General Phil Sheridan the cav'alry of the army of the Shenandoah had to be remounted every four months. It is estimated that if we had to fight a war of such consequence as to require 50.000 horses for officers, cavalry and field artillery at one time, it would take 150,000 a year to keep the supply up to that The armj officials admit that they do not know where such a supply would come from. They point to the fact that CJreat Britain bought more than 100.000 horses in the United States for service in the Boer war, and that even this demand went a long way toward causing the shortage of horses of the army type which now exists In the United Slates. Prior to the Boer war. England content to rely on the colonies and the United States for its army horses, but the of that war were such that the British have The Man We Expect to Please Most is the man who really knows and appreciates good customers invariably There is a certain dash and life to Mansfield made garments not to be found in other clothes.

The plan which the department of agriculture and the war department have w'orked out to lend effective encouragement to the breeding of army horses involves a government stud of a hundred horses, about 50 of them thoroughbreds, 25 standard breds. 15 saddle horses, and 10 morgans. These horses would be distributed through four districts especially suited for breeding army horses, and the colts from these horses would be subject to an option of the government at 3 years of age.

It is estimated that the maintenance of this stud would cost $250,000 for the first year and $100.000 a year thereafter. Germany Dlffloulfy.

was bothered with pimples and blackheads in the worst way for over four years. My face and arms were completely cohered with them. The pimples would come out on my face and fester all up. They would scMb over, and make ray face sore, besides being so disfiguring that I shunned my friends. I tried facial cream balms and benzoine with no effect.

night I asked a friend what was good for pimples, and he advised me tc try Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment which I did I would wash my face first with hot water and Cuticura Soap, and then put on some Cuticura Ointment, let it stay on five minutes, and then wash my face again with the Cuticura Soap. It would draw the blackheads out as nice, and the pimples, oh say, it was one grand relief to go among my friends and be jolly again. After using two cakes of Cuticura Soap and two boxes of Cuticura Ointment, my face is as smooth as if there never had been a pimple on it. I cannot speak too highly of the cura Soap and Ointment, and hope others will profit by them as much as I have. I know they will after giving them just one (Signed) Arthur IjJ.
