coon STOCK PAYS

Reference was made in these columns
last week to the fact that Messrs. Buckman
d Carragher, of this city, had been offered
500 for three months-old colt by Noon
day, out of their Monroe Chief mare, Am.
ber. This shows the advantage of breed
ing good colts, instead of common ones.
On well-regulated farms it costs little more
to raise valuable stock than the poorer
quality, while the returns are vastly
greater.
The get MONDAY are in demand among
turfmen, as that sire has demonstrated his
ability to produce speedy colts. small
number of well-bred mares stinted to good
sires will put money in the pockets of any
man who understands the care and rearing
of young stock.
Our enterprising townsmen referred to
have displayed good judgment in the Sc
lection of their mares and sires, and are
laying the foundation for one of the best
breeding farms in this vicinity.
UNwEPT, BUT NOT UNHoNoRED.
One OF the most remarkable stations of
the age, Tom Hal, died at Buford's Rock
dale Farm, Bufords, Tenn, July 5th. OBJ
scure and upthought of, his son, Little
Brown jug, electrified the world by pacing
three consecutive heats in 2:l13, 2:l1a and
2:l22, and the sire at once became famous
Two other sons have since added to his
reputation, Brown Hal and Hal Pointer.
The former has a record of 2:l21, made in
race, while the former comes close up
with a mark of 2:13. This is the fastest
trio 10 the credit of one sire. and the per-
formances were all made in actual speed
contests.
THE CALIFORNIA HORSE, AL. FAkIow.
An Eastern exchange speaking of AL
Farrow, who has been very successful at
Chicago, says: "Al. Farrow. the California
race horse now at Washington Park track,
is q specimen of the substantial type of
thoroughbreds. At m lie, at fair weight,
he will give any horse in the country de-
termined argument. but be has yet to
demonstrate his ability to stay at a dis.
tance." A week ago he won grand race
from Almont and others at mile and q
quarter.
FLAMBEAU, THE GREAT.
Says "Grim," in the Breeder and Sports
man: Nv. Mccormick is credited with say
ing that Flambeau (Wildidle -Flirt, imp
can beat Racine after going a mile and any
part of the road before going it, and do it
easily. Henry Walsh assured me both
last year and this spring that from one
jump to the Rocky Mountains Flambeau
could beat Racine, and slowly but surely
had to acknowledge that the veteran was
right. Flambeau, had be been out East, all
right, this year would have romped away
from all the three-year-olds, and even
Salvador would have known he had had a
race when he got through with the regally
bred son of Wildidle and imp. Fiirt by

like Hermit, was Derby winner

Hickok will hold the money for the Sunol
proposition till July 30;h.
Mr.. Bonner says: 1T is almost certain
that Sunol can play with Belle Hamlin, an
