1t is not right for man to work for
his pleasure on Sunday the horse which
has labored for his profit during the
week. The pampered horse that is
kept for pleasure alone is left out of the
question. He needs a Sundays spin to
keep HIM down as much as his owner
needs it to tone himself up. But the
ordinary work horse is as tired and worn
out on Saturday night as IS the average
workingman. He is entitled. under the
Divine ordinance, to enc days rest in
seven as much AS his master. The owner
of the horse is the trustee of that horse.
and invested with authority to use the
animal with fairness and moderation
six days in the week, resting on the
seventh.
1T seems to me-" says writer on
trotting horse matters, who evidently
has some notable recent strainingS after
great records in mind, THAT the start
ing of horses under such circumstances,
with not an hours previous notice to
the public, is wretched business" 1t
is; and, though done usually with a
seeming seriousness, it is the counter
part of quackery. II is one of many and
fast multiplying illustrations TO the
pffaat that fhp ra0nrd lQaSt liolAln RI ha
obtained by corrupt methods is that
regularly obtained in race.
There is much less talk now than
formerly ON the subject OF cutters
among trotterS, whole families then
coming in for such characterization.
Among those thus blackened were the
Happy Mediums. but when they come
along and step like Nancy Hanks, the
talk ceases on the subject and the need
for quitting is greatly lessened, though
it should not be forgotten that the dead
game Dictator blood is there also.
Faustino's three heats in 2:1S14, 2:17
and 2:lS15 are the three fastest ever
won by three-year-old trotter. Ak
tells 2:l4 is the only heat ever trotted
by three-year-old in a race that was
faster, and. as his other heats were
slow, and he had nothing to drive him
out, the heat was practically an exhibit
ton of speed.
Monbars, 2:2o. by Eagle Bird, 2:2lL,
dam Lady Maud, 2:1S14, is the fastest
new two year old ever bred east of Cali
fornia. He is the fastest two-year-old
whose dam has record better than 2:30,
and is the fastest two-year-old out by a
developed sire and out of developed
mare.
A California paper says: "That Arion
can give MonbarS cards and spades and
about as easy beating as he did Kebir,
in an actual race, can not be doubted by
those who witnessed the baby colt troi
mile, eased up all the way down the
home stretch. in 2:21 fiat"
Now is the time to take up the colts
and see that they are carefully pre-.
pared for winter. See that they are in
good shape, that their feet are trimmed
properly and that they get enough
strong food to keep in flesh.

one that has produced veritable won.
