Governor question, presented by us
last week, served to generate an I'M
due amount of heat in the Free Press

somewhat familiar injunction: "Do
not let your zeal carry you beyond
certain limits marked down for the

PRESS EXTRACTS.
From the Newport Express.

The general trend of public senti-
ment seems to be toward making
Hon. C. S. Page of Hyde Park the
next Governor. The success of Mr..
Page in his own business; his able
administration of the Office of lnspec-
tor of Finance, and his service upon
the Republican State Committee, are
all elements in his favor. The feeling
that State expenditures have been
growing excessively late years is IN
ereasing, and desire for their cur
tailment is another reason why Mr..
Pages candidacy isregarded with Ia
yor, His administration, if he is al
lowed to have one, will be on the side
of true economy.

the betting on heats may be made more
important than the race. Suppose a

that any driver would .'lay up'' heat

Now, where do we look for the remedy?

EARLY FOALS.
A Famous Trainer Gives Some
Tips on Breeding.

A Famous Trainer Gives Some
Tips on Breeding.
John Porter. the well-known English
trainer, expresses the opinion that if we
had later foals, fewer two-year-olds rae
ing and longer races. we should have
better owners, better trainers and bet
ter jockeys. He says: "The three
worst months in the whole year in
which foals can be born are January,
February and March, and those that are
born in these months have to contend
with the very worst weather which we
experience during the whole course of
the year In this country. The mares
and fOals must be housed, and can
only be turned out during rare
intervals of sunshine. Then the
foal naturally galiops about. gets very
hot, afterWard stands Shivering by it's
mothers side, gets chill, and sows the
seed OF roaring and other diseases, from
which it afterwards suffers. through
life. Again, during these three months
the mares must be fed on dry food, with
a liuseed mash and few carrots occa-
siOnally for change. l question
whether this feeding can admit of the
mares nourishing her foal as she could
when feeding upon the young natural
grasses to be obtained in April and May.
| believe that early foaling will not be
found amongst horses running wild and
in their natural state, and in our at
tempts to breed good early foals we are
fighting against nature and getting the
worst of it.

In a chat on the subject of yearlings
with weHknown turfman, a rather
good story was told on a fellow racing
man and yearling purchased by him
at the Haggin sale last year for the sum
of $4,000. Selected by John Maekey,
than whom there is no better judge, the
yearling was considered by him one of
the best of very fine lot. In bis two
year-oid torn this yearling, named Por-
thos OH account Of-her size, proved a
tremendous fellow, and good locker,
but too clumsy and awkward to run
little bit (anOther proof of the uncer-
tainty of the running ability of any
yearling selected by however good a
judge. Recently Porthos was sold
to Alfred Lakeland for 1925,
who. finding him big and regular con-
sumner of about twelve, quarts of oats
per day, reduced his allowance to six
per day, the price of oats being particu-
larly high at present. PorthOs, being a
tremendous eater, could not stand this
sort of treatment. and began to devote
his attentions to the wooden bars In his
stall. In order to prevent him from do
ing himself injury by too large con-
sumption of wood Lakeland ordered the
stable boy to soap the bars. He being
called away during the act of applying
the supposed preventive, and, careless
ly leaving the bar of soap in the stall,
was surprised to find PorthOs finishing
the last bit of the soap on his return<
Lakeland has since sold PorthOS to
trainer Mccarthy for S275, and he to
Garrison for 1870, in whose care POrthOS
is at present.
