PRODUCE
1t is well known that many stock hors-
es of the very best breeding, and them
selves fast, do not sire trotters. Occas-
ionally one has the mysterious power Of
producing speed. But whether or not
one has this Invaluable power can be
| known certainly only from actual results.
| Henry S. has five colts already la the
thirties and three of them are 50 close TO
$50 that some OF them are almost certain
TO reach that charmed limit the present
season, which will make him standard, Of
which he now fails by reason Of his sire
being but one second short. When stand
ard let those who think of using him ask
themselves If the service fee will be likely
to remain at the present low figure.

The following editorial note from the
Boston CultiUatOr of May 4th, 1889, IN so
much to the point that we make IL part
of this advertisement. 1t well illustrates
the speed-producing power OF Henry s..
HAMBLEroNIAS's LAsT.-Rysdyk's Hamblctonian
began his stud career when but two years old. One
OF his first foals, IL not his very first, was AcNan
der's Abdallah. The latter died when bat thirteen
years old, yet a careful study Of the 230 list will
show that a greater number of the animals found
there traces 10 Alexander Abdallah than 90 any
other stallion that ever lived, excepting his own
ancestors.
Hanbletonian was in the stud from 1851 to the time
of his death In 1879 period of - years. During
TINS time ne got loo" living ioN Inc NlfA ~ Aitrt
to acquire distinction upon the turf WAS the famous
Dexter (2l7i), which was for several years king Of
the trotting turf DeXter's dam, rs is well known,
was Clara, 14i hand, nervy, rcsolutc daughter Of
Secly's American Star. The last foM produced by
IIambletonIan is Dr. }. A. sherman's handsome
stallion very appropriately named llnmhlctonian'r
Last, a likeness Of which appears upon another
page. He Is "A smoothly turned, speedy fellow, bred
by his present owner and ioaled in 1870. In .tis
eight-year-old form he got record Of 22al. HIS
dam, like that of Dexter (2l7l), was by Seely's
American Star. Daughters of Secly's American
Star have already produced thrty-threc stations
which have got 2.30 performers. IL h. safe % pre-.
dict that before many years HambletOniHn's last
will be numbered in that class.
