pushed forward aud everything now gives promise
of being In entire readiness for the opening Of the

Der Of close stalls and those added are Of larger
dimensions than the old ones, giving thus ample
room FOR the largest horses aud for mares with
foais nj their sides.
The track has been re. graded, smoo,hed and
dressed, and IL now undoubtedly one Of the best
half.mile tracks in this section. A new fence has
been erected, extending along the quarter stretch
the face Of the inner field, which will serve 10
prevent all intrusion on the track by excited or
anxious spectators at the finish Of the races aud
trots.
The newly seeded grass has taken fairly and the
shade trees set out around the driving tract and

tablished and are growing thriily. Before another
