To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The final distribution of goods, carried out by smaller horses, in much smaller quantities, over a much wider area, will, I estimate, occupy roughly an equal number of horses. Taking the total light and heavy cart-horses used for other than agricultural purposes at 2,500,000 I will estimate 40% are heavy dray- and 60% are light cart-horses. The price of the former I will put at £60 and the latter at £30. The breeding stock of this class of horse is no doubt chiefly owned in this country. Taking... fifteen years as the working life of such horses, and allowing 10% for failures, it is necessary to employ 73,332 heavy dray- and 110,000 light cart-horse mares per annum; that is, 183,332 mares are required for the production of 166,666 foals. Horses used for agricultural purposes total VALUE OF THE BREEDING INDUSTRY 65 1477,991. In order to keep up the supply, allow- ing a working life of 15 years, 98,533 foals per annum are required; allowing 10% for failures a total of 108,386 mares are required.
