The pool privileges for the coming
spring meeting Of the Nashville Blood
Horse Association have been awarded
to Messrs. Watts, Hughes & Co., of

ton is that the voice Of that silver

ing the meeting,

last Spirit of the Times: Nashville
made an experiment this spring. She
doubled the added money to her stakes,

doubled their entries. | hope this
may result in attractions at Nashville
which will encourage the Blood Horse
Association to further increase the
value of its stakes. 1t has quite as
many of them as it is entitled to, but
they should be more literally patron
lied, and will be as the added money
is increased
