Asies Pay 131 Million for Animals and Mules
The United States shipped 678 443 horses and mules worth 131 014 000 to Europe for allied armies in the last year and a half. In 1913 only about 30 000 were sent, but after hostilities began 20 000 a month were shipped, peaking at 56 000 in October. Prices for farm animals have fallen notably amid the steady export flow and waning supply.
