Army officers Interested In getting

with satisfaction ot tho promising re
sults ot the first Installment of ani
mals acquired for tho new remount
depot at Tort Itono, Okla. This 1b
tho beginning ot u sjstem of remount
depots, located in the horse-breed
ing sections ot the countiy, with the
idea ot obtaining for the Arm) the
special kinds of horses needed, In
cluding draft animals, fast runners,
and polo ponies. Tho ponies are for
training cavalrymen In mounted ath
letics and for uso of cadets ut West
I'olnt. Tlio (list hoises to bo pur
chased cumo from Montana, being
speclllcall) selected by an officer who
made a round of visits among tho
lunches foi the purpose. It was
honed that other horses would bn ob
tallied In tlio Uust, but the maiW
thoie Is too high, although tliu
horses are considered admirably suit
cd for the most part. Theie has been
so much complaint of tlio horses fur
nished the Army that it has been de
elded to oxtond tho new cistern as
lupldly as posslblo and get rid ot
tho method of buying animals by
contiact. Although the purchasing
officers have been oxperts in the se
lection ot horses, it is Impossible so
far to obtain Just tho hoises desired,
and it Is bellovod that the training
of young horses will produco a moro
efficient canlij, which will, In tho
end, be moro economical to maintain.
