Notwithstanding the opposition of some
people to the roller skating Kinks, they thrive
and continue to attract increased attendance.
1t seems to be something more than popu-

To the Editor of the Globe:
MooRHRAD, Feb 24-Occasional's let
ter in the GLOBE of the 29d, in regard
at the National Trotting association, led
me to look over the list of kings and
queens of the turf that had trotted fifty
or more races and won a majority of
them, as published in the Chicago Horseman
of the 21st inst. The number is twenty-four
beginning with Goldsmith Maid made a
hasty search and place their breeding in the
following order: New York 9, Connecticut 3,
Massachusetts 2, Canada, New Jersey, Yer
mont, New Hampshire, Wisconsin. Ten nessee
and Kentucky each one, Lady Thorne be-
ing the only one in that long list of the
greatest trotting horses ever bred and raced
that Kentucky can claim. The following
three horses place of breeding l cannot
place: DR.. Lewis, record 2:24, Chicago, rec
ord 2:24$4, and Lady Sherman, Cali
fornia, does not even get a
place in the whole list. One
secret of California being considered great
state for maturing the trotter is that one or
two men have spent more money on fitting
nesota is worth, unless it be three or four Of
our largest breeders, and those gentlemen
are all opposed to driving and training their
stock young. | think If Commodore Kittson
or c. A. DeGrafr would expend the money
on a few of their colts, beginning as soon as
they are three months old, the same as Gov
Stanford of California does, Minnesota stock
would stand as high to-day in the market as
ptpcl- IN hc Golden ~. IL
quires not only breeding and speed to make
a trotter, but money, just how much | am
not prepared to say, but can positively assert
have expended quite bit of money, and
have not yet succeeded in making mark in
the 2:90 list Perhaps the only reason is
the winters heretofore have been too mild in
Minnesota, but l think the thermometer
went low enough, and remained as long as
was necessary below zero this winter for me
to reach it next season. Yours truly,

Mr.. B. Magofiin, Jr., Of St. Paul In regaru W
wintering stock in this cold latitude, Wnere
the mercury occasionally goes to 40 below
and frequently from 10 to 900 below. Under
this condition Of the temperature Whlcn con-
tinues during considerable portion OF tne
wear. it becomes matter of great importance
to find out the best way to take care OF STOCK
during these cold months. Breeding IN MID
nesota may be said to be in its infancy, con-
seuuently practical experience IN TINS mater
is of vital importance to the breeding inter-
ests of the state for the reason that many
hundreds Of thousands OF dollars are DC
ing invested in the venture. The colo weather
is no terror. That is now setteed. When
Mr.. Charles A. DeGraff, one of the most
practical men in the state. said that he kept
his stock in open sheds in the winter, with
the mercury at 400 below zero; men could
hardly believe him. Since Mr.. De Gra1 5
statement was published we have had the
testimony OF Fl. G. Fiukle of Moorehead
and other gentlemen, which fully sustained
Mr.. De CRAFTS method. Now we have
statement from Mr. i. Magoflin. Jr. Ihs
gentleman is well-known in st. Paul as
practical farmer. He was born in Ken
lucky, in the heart of the blue grass region,
and there lived till early manhood, when
he came to Minnesota, where he is now farnl-
ing in a practical manner. His testimony
upon this very important matter Is gwen IN
tue letter to be found in this department OF
the GLOBE to-day. 1t is an important paper,
and will be read with great interest by all
breeders.

same blue grass that has made Kentucky ia
nous grows spontaneously and luxuriousy

the writer has seen the same blue grass
growing about old Fort Garry at Winnipeg.
On the durability of timothy field | have to
say that here in Ramsey comfy between St.
Paul and Minneapolis l have forty acres that
was seeded down to timothy, red top and red
clover in 1864, and has yielded good crop
of hay every year since then, and hope to
get equally as good crop this next season of
'S5. have another forty adjoining that was
seeded TO timothy and red clover in 1870 and
have got good crop of hay every year since,
and expect to get as good this year.
And another field that was seeded in 1873,
and another in 1880, each field yields me a
good crop every year, the Oldest field averagg-
Ing well with the others. Hence I submit
that timothy and red clover here are perma-
nent crops, ard will never freeze out as it
does in the states further south.

Notwithstanding the hard times. The bust
ness men have all had good trade and
some of them are now in the Eastern mar
kets buying their spring goods. The winter
has been very cold here but the usual heavy
fall of snow has not visited us yet and the
prairies are at the present bare. The farm
ers are buying their machinery and getting
ready to commence putting in their spring
crops. There will not be as many acres OF
wheat sown this season as last, as the farmers
have come to the conclusion that diversified
husbandry is the most profitable. Many of
the farmers have commenced to raise stock,
for which this section of Dakota is best
adapted.

For twenty years the Turf, Field and Farm
has been under the same direction, and il
has grown up with the breeding industries
founded since the civil war. 1t also has
largely Influenced the wonderful develop
ment of turf, field, athletic, aquatic and
other sports. No journal in the country
stands so close to the breeders and track
managers, and none more truly voices their
sentiments. Having had so much expert
ence it always gives wise counsel, and its
views command the widest respect and are
quoted throughout America and Europe. 1t
is paper that has a remarkably large and
strong staff. 1t secures the best talent to be
found for each department. It is paper
that is accurate in statement and vigorous
in its expression. 1t is not a matter
of wonder therefore that its circulation is so
large, and that it should be known aud read
wherever the breeding of horses is carried
on and intelligent sports of all kinds are
pursued. The enterprise of the Turf, Field
and Farm is not less marked than its ability,
and it is a pleasure to find it so numerously
read and welding so much power.

Hamhletonian ns q Sire.

From Wilkes Spirit.
To present the standing of the Hambletou-
ian family from the $50 point of view would
make a serious draft upon the Spirits pace,
and after all would only be going over beaten
ground. For the information of those inter
ested in the breeding question, we have taken
the trouble TO collate the facts regarding the
leading trottlng family. Upon careful in
vestIgation we find So sons Of old Handle
touian figuring in the list of 80 sires, with
81 performers to their credit. The grand
sons are 50 in number, with ISL a:30 per-
formers. The great grandsous number 80
with IL sons and daughters, and in the next
generation We ind 2 sires with performer
each. To sum up, Rysdyk's HANDLE
toriau left $50 male descend
ants, who sired 500 performers in $50 or
better Adding the IS performers credited
to Hambletonian, the grand total is 544
with fast records, or over one-fourth OF the
entire list.
OF the grandsous Of Hambletouiau, Volun-
teer heads the list with II sons. Alcxander's
Abdallah follows with 10. Edward Everett
and George Wilkes with each. Since
publishing our list under the sires We have
sscertaiRed the fact that Lumps has 8 son
who last year entered the $3.50 cojerie. Mes

sooner than he had expected.
Both Paddy Ryan and Dominick Mccartney
having repeatedly expressed an al-consum-
ing desire to meet Sullivan, and reiterated
their belief that they can knock the conceit
out of him, it woul seem to be the proper
thing for them to first engage each other and
see which is the better man. That would
take part of the job off Sully's hands; but
then they doubtless are Influenced by the be-
lief that there's less money in it.
Champion Sullivan has been keeping him
self extremely quiet for some time past,
which may be accepted as evidence that
there is something in the wind which bodies
no good to those parties who threaten to ''do
him up'' when they get a chance at him. 1t
wouldn't surprise us bit to find John l.. as
much of cyclone as ever when next he puts
