Bancroft can boast of something new and
novel as DIR. Taylor has secured the English
Setter trotting dogs, Bird and Ned, for his
little son Warde. These dogs have the
reputation of being the fastest team of trot-
ting dogs in the world, having trotted to the
pole in the remarkably quick time of two
minutes and eleven seconds for half mile
dash. They trot against pony, boy on BIZ
cycle or against any trotting dogs In the
world. He will match the dog ''Bird"
against the trotting dogs "Doc" or "JOe,"
both famous fast ones. The doctor intends
showing them this fall and from purely
financial standpoint the novelty of such a
race must commend itself to the officers Of
all race track associations and athletic clubs.
His little son Is sole owner and driver, the
doctor managing for him. Com
mercal. These dogs will be one of the at
fractions at the county fair Sept. 20, 30.
