PriceB on all classes were only fair, but shippers can find sale on the market for their supplies If they buy right in the country. Demand for horses to be used by the warring nation of EXtrope was strong. Heavy supplies were shipped and they are continuing to buy as freely as they have been. Prices range from $125 to $180.' Mules—There were many bnyers on the market looking for quality, but this was essential, as buyers would not look at anything that did not have the qualifications /of 'being the very best.
