The Most Promising Trotter Of
CrescO,

Wentworth s. Flood, of Cresco have
brought home from Waverly their
four year-old colt, John Conway, by
Antar Jr. He has proved to be a
very fine colt. When Mr.. Flood
bought him last spring, he had not
been drove to develop his speed. He
won the four year-old race at Cresco
in three strait heats; record 3:034,
under pull on slow track. He trot-
ted the Waverly track which is four
rods and six feet over a mile in 2:56,
2:55t and 2:55 strait heats, Oct. 30th.
Also mile in 2:53, first half in les,
last quarter in 40 seconds, n $40 gait
Mr.. Clark says he is one of the best
and most promising colts he has ever
drove, and barring accidents, he will
drive him in the thirties the coming
season. He is the most speedy horse
IN the county and will win many
laurels the coming season.
Aldine, the coming flyer, had been
in harness but ten weeks, had no
track work, and she won the farmers
race, record 3:O7; mile trial in 2:5S,
half mile trial 1:27. Those colts with
little driving have shown extraordi-
nary speed and will prove to be fine

several suggestions for legislation in

giving the mostgagor of land the
privilege of paying the tax and ap-
plying portion of it as q setoff on
the mortgage might be well enough
where mortgagors eventually pay
the mortgage and save the land, but
where they loose the land what is the
benefit to them in the application
They will have parted with the
money and get no returns.
