Another Breeding Farm.

Messrs, Daniels and Winsor have
started breeding farm near Kelso,
Trail county, Oak, where they are
breeding and raising first-class trotting
stock and Percherons. In the trotting
line Erie King, $3.50, takes the lead. He
is bay stallion 1917 hands high, very
handsome and stylish. He is fine gated
and can trot fast, and has never been
beaten in the show ring. He was sired
by Mambrino King, 1879, which is re-
garded as the handsomest horse IN the
world His first dam was Sophia, by
Hamlin's Almont, Jr.. 1929; second,
Black Woful by Hamlin's Patchin, 1919;
third, Miss Minchin by Young Woful,
119; fourth dam, Miss Sears by Hero,
son of Abdallah, l. MessrS. Daniels and
Winsor have commenced with stock that
is among the best, and they ought to
succeed in establishing in the Northwest
fine and successful breeding farm.

A Correction,
To the Editor of the Globe

10 the Editor OF the GLOBE
DAKOTA, June l, 1SSS.-There is an
article in last Mondays GLOBE,
from Milbank, OAK, over the fc-
titious signature 3D." that con-
tains a few errors. Jewell's record
is not 2:34112, but 2:24%. Jewell
was not sired by Buckingham No. 1743,
of which ''B' writes, but by Bucking-
yam No. 49, an entirely different horse.
Buckingham No. 50, sire of Jewell
2:2433l, was sired by Rysdyke's Hamble-
tonion No. 10. Buckingham No. 1743,
that stood at Parker and Mitchell, Oak,
and referred to by 3D." was sired by
Knickerbocker. This Buckingham, to
wit, No. 1743, never sired a single trot-
ter, let alone ga family of trotters." as
''B'so enthusiastically states. Such reck-
less blunders are hardly eXcusable, as
they have been SO many times exposed
and corrected in leading horse journals,
to-wit: Chicago Horseman," Esprit
of the Turf" and other papers. Let us
keep our enthusiasm for our horses
within due bound and not bring them
into disrepute, or diseredit on their
owners. Truth.

SnUggler.


Breeders Gazette.
The trotting stallion Young Snug
gler, that came out in 1884 and made
record of 2:2914, is dead at the age of
twelve years. Like most of the get of
Smuggler he had none of the character
isticS of his sire, and it is wonderful
how few 2:30 horses Smuggler got when
one takes into account the high class of
mares that for ten years were bred to
him while he was owned by Col. II. S.
Russell. Sold for $4,000 when in the
flush of his trotting career, Smuggler
failed utterly to make mark as sire,
and when, still in full vigor and fine
health, he was put up at auction 1t was
hard to get $1,000 for him-only one
fortieth of the sum willingly paid when
he was untried as a sire but known to
be about the fastest trotter on the turf.
The story of SmUggler is a romantic
one, and the ending of it is almost pa
thetic. He is now standing for mares
on well-known stock farm near Hor-
ncllsville, n. Y, but his whereabouts
makes no noise in the breeding world.
He has been a failure, and as the trot-
ting horse is nothing if not progressive
there is no room for failures.
