SPEED ELEMENTS.

er of trotters. He has also a strain from

Diomed blood through both sire and dam,

the turf"
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 5. has five colts already in the
thirties and three OF them are 80 close to
2.3O 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

mare proves I'm foal. All mares no own
ers risk and If disposed of before foaling

The following editorial note from the
Boston CultiCdtOr OF May 4th, 1883, Is so
much TO the point that we make 10 "A part
Of this advertisement. IL well illustrates
the speed-producing power Of Henry 5.
HAMBLEToNIAN's LAsr.-Rysdyk's Hambletonian
began his stud career when but two years old. One
Of his first ioals u not his very first, was AcNan-
dcrs A bdallah. The latter died when but thirteen
years old, yet careful study OF the 230 list viii
show that greater number of the animals found
there traces to AleNander's Abdallah than to any
other stallion that ever lived excepting bis own
ancestors.
With the exception Of the year ls6s, Rysdyk's
uamblotonian was In the stud from 1851 60 the time
of his death IN 1870, period Of - years. During
this time he got 1883 living foas. The first OF these
10 acquire distinction upon the turf the famous
Dexter (2l7l), which was for several years king of
the trotting turf. DeXteris dam, a. is well known
