SOUTH GARDINER.

A JotRsAL reporter recently visited River
View Stock Farm, owned by W. ID. Haley,
and iocated Ia the lower part of South Gar
diner, about miles from the city. This
farm y hich comprises about 20 acres is
situated on 4 high hill overlooking the
kennebec. From it one can several
miles both up and down the river. When
Mr.. Haley purchased this farm, about four
wears ago, il was covered with thick woods,
a greater part Of which has been cut down
md the ground used for hay fields and pas
ture land. \ large and rommodious stable
has been bJilt which will accommodate
) horses Near IL have been built several
colt yards, where the young colts have their
daily exercise. One colt in particular
which was about weeks old. did not know
any other gait than trotting, ii showing fine
knee action, considering its age. Return
ing to the stable, quite protuberance is
noticed on the side Of the stable, this being
the fire escape from IIaley's stall. Haley s
stall is conspicuous among the rest, it being
large and we'll lighted. The stallion Haley,
232 -, trial 2.2G 81, by Nelson,
dam, Graynose, is Il handsome horse,
being over IL hands high. He is
very deep through the shoulders and has
well rounded ami very muscular limbs.
Haley has filed his service book for this
season with the exception of but four
places. Probably money could not buy
this horse of Mr. Haley, as he is much at
tached to him and expects to see him lower
some good records the coming season.
Directly opposite lIaley's stall IS that of
the l-vear-old Nelson colt, Ethel Nelson,

by far the pet of the stable. Near by are

the cause of his astonishing activity. Mr.
Gladstone replied that many years ago he
heard there was road leading out of Lon
don which killed more horses than any
other road Now this particular road was
a dead level, and accordingly only brought
one set of the muscles of horse into play
Applying the moral, Mr. Gladstone thought
