HOUSES v. MOTOR
DOBBIN STAGES A COME-BACK
(From "The Post's" Representative.) SYDNEY, 12th November. • The horse has not, by any moans, bad its day in New South .Wales, despite the motor. There is to-day a, kcenor demand for good working horses in the wheat districts of the .State than there has been for the past ten years. As much as £40 has been secured for good types, notwithstanding the hard times. That the farmers in the wheat areas are alive to the need for more horses is gathered from the remarkable increase in the number of draught stallions for service this season. Districts in which but one and in some cases no stallion was available, now have several horses on the road. Following good rains, there will bo a regular scramble, according to report, among farmers to secure draught horses fit to take off the heavy crops.
