Poultry have not been counted fill the last few years. According lo the statistics of 1928 they numbered 36 000, which is probably too low. EXPORT OF LIVE STOCK The export of horses, begun about the middle of the nineteenth cen- tury, increased considerably after 1870, chiefly to England, where they were employed in the coal mines. But since 1900 horses have also heen sold to Denmark, where they are used by the small holders as beasts of draught. During the Great War Denmark was the only mar- ket for Icelandic horses. The export of horses for fiftv vears has been as follows: 1871—1880, on the average 1881-1890, 1891—1900, 1901-1910, 1911-1920, 1921 —1028. | 477 head 2241 — 2129 3229 2 609 I 646 The highest figure was reached in 1899, when 5700 head were ex- ported. During the last stages of the Great War this trade almost completely ceased. After the conclusion of peace some increase was again observable, though the pre-war level was never reached; and in recent years a decline has once more set in, According to law of 1907 no lean horses, nor horses in an other- wise poor condition, nor those having any marked blemishes or defects, may be exported. Horses ranging from 4 to 10 years may be exported, if in other respects they come up to the standard, and 3 year-olds if #) Foals ara not included in these figures.
