For some time past one of the horseless carriages has been under construction at Hoffman’s Car- riage Works, Erb St. and is now completed. it is a handsome vehicle, a model of mechanical and artistic skill and War terloo citizens may be doubly proud of' it because it was designed by enterprising young men and the work executed by local skill. The plans for its construction were furnished by Messrs. Nelson and Milton Good, electricians, for whom it was built, the iron _work being done by Mr. Geo.

A Horse Famine A horse famine is expected in this part of Canada because of the large number of animals purchased for war purposes. Messrs. J.M. Patterson and Thus. Flahiff, who during the past three months, have purchased several hundred horses for _service in South Africa, say there will be a difficulty to supply the market with horses for some years and that the prices of the animals will greatly increase. This surety is a fact that our farmers and horse breeders would do well to note and raise the necessary class of animals to meet the row ftertin Sept. 18th and 19th. demand. of business activity.
