Johns, mayor of Mott and Adams county sup- erintendent of health, in a letter di- rected Saturday to Herbert C. Hoover, food administrator. ‘Dr. Johns’ communication is pre sented herewith in full. “Having noticed by press despatch- es-from’ Washington, that the world’s Supply of meat animals has decreased 150,000,000 in the last three years and that the problem of supplying the Al- lies ‘with meat.is becoming daily more burdensome, I take the pleasure and ifberty of mentioning the fact that we have ih North and South Dakota. ‘Montana’'and Wyoming several hun- dred thousand: horses that are at this time fat and in fine condition, rang- ing ‘from: six to eleven hundred pounds. These’ horses at this time havé no market owing to the gencr- af‘use ‘of auto machines for transpor- fation. Why not use these horses for food? -Is it not a false prejudice against horse meat: in this country that keeps them from our markets? The American. Indian ate their ponies and considered them a delicacy. All carnivorous animals prefer — horse meat to either beef or pork. It is just as nutritious as beef or pork. Would you not rather eat a piece of good Young fat horse than a piece of old broken-down milk-cow, commonly known as a canner, whose only bar to the. market is her inability to stand up until she gets there? I would.
