We are in receipt of Robt Bon
ner's last catalogue. Amongst other
things he SAYS: During the year
nearly one thousand horses. To show
the wonderful progress that has re-
Gently been made in developing speed
it is only necessary to state that when
[ began driving trotting horses in
1855, there were not twenty horses in
the whole country eligible to the 2:3O
list, and there was not even one in
the 1920 list, or anywhere near it.
Had / not made it a rule of
| lily lll6 n6N6I W lIOJ a llOIEb lOI
| money, there are number of animals
on my farm, in addition 10 those
whose records l have given, that
could have been added to both of
these lists. 1890 has come
and gone. During the past six years
| there has been an extra rdinary in
crease in the number of horses that
have trotted i'm 2:30 and better; but
neither the record of 2:09A made by
Maud S., in 1884, nor her record of
2:OSh made i'm 1885, has yet been |
| equalled. We can imagine Maud s.,
with queenly dign ty, listening during
! those six years to the numerous pre-
| iictions that were made concerning
the many rivals that were gOing-al- |
ways going-:o dethrone her. First
| JaV-Eye-See, who stands next to her |
by the record, vas going to do 1t; then |
| MaXey Cobb, his owner proclaimed,
was certain to do it. He was followed |
by Belle Hamliu, Guy, Axtell, Sunol
and others. To none of these did |
Maud S condescend to reply, except |
Suuol. When the latter trotted half
a mile i'm :0215 at Detroit, Maud was
tempted to send her the following |
telegram: "Miss SunOl-It takes two |
halves to make a whOle.-Maud s."
As there have been many |
erroneous statements published re- |
garding the price that L paid Gov.
Stanford for Sunol, it may be as well |
to state here that L gave Sal 600 for |
her-just 81 900 more than L paid Mr.. |
| Vanderbilt for Maud 5.
In another column will be found |

1t will be gratifying to the lovers
of track horses to know that Brown
Hal has recently been examined by
Dr. Alex. w. HarthiIl, of Louisville,
} one OF the most distinguished veteri-
, nary surgeons in the country, and by
him pronounced to be entirely over
the lameness with which he has suf-
fered the past several seasons, and
that he is in perfect condition to stand
f track work ag lin and il this favor
, able condition. continues the records
of all harness horses will be in danger
when the bell rings for him to start
next season.
-Jay-Eye-See, 2:1O, though his
days as a trotter are gone, still heads
the list of five-year-olds.
Five trOtters during the past sea
son have beaten the four-year-old
record of 2:l6-Sunvl, Margaret s.,
Allerton, Nancy Hanks and Ala
baster.
( eff you are not sure that groom
: ing pays, just double the dose for a
e while,h is the advice of an expert
Y enced horseman. "NOthiDg will be
more convincing. The trouble with
most grooming of farm horses IS the
doses are entirely too small and too
4 far between"
a The latest phenomenon IN Cali
!, fornia is the two-year-Old PAGER Chief
Thorne, that made record of 2:2O1a
not long since. He is by hawthorne
4 a son of Nutwood, 2:lSs4, and from
: the style in which he stepped mile
i in 2:201& at Stockton, it is thought
that 2:14 or better will be his mark al
a three-year-old.
