VARIOUS HORSE MATTERS.

I have always read the column in HE BEE devoted to the interests of the horse, with considerable interest, still never before have you ever received commu-
 nication from me. always considered
 that such column would be of great h.
 terest to many of your readers, provided
 it was edited by disinterested person,
 one who was not particularly interested
 in any stallion owned in town. l have seen many articles of that nature, where each of the horses and different persons
 were all given word of praise. This 1
 think is as it hould be. But for most all the time it has looked to me as | though there was a decided preference shown for one horse. In one of your re- cent editions you said Miss Alice, who | sold for S40O0 in New York is a half
 sister to Birmingham. This is a mistake,
 as she is an aunt. The same relative as
 the produce of Old Kate, who sold for
 O,OOO, are to Pueblo. The owner of
 Bona Eide refused $SOOO for him. He is sire of Gene, 2.30. She will go
 through the grand circuit this year and
 has shown her ability to trot in 2.15 ;
 also Bonita, who is expected to beat 2.2O
 this season. He has several others with records below 30. Pueblo's colts have
 always been on our track and people
 know what kind of an appearance they
 make. You should always remember
 that to-day it is the colt you offer your
 tI hot Ix,o ats fO J
 he requires individual merit first of all
 then the pedigree is by no means over
 looked. A lilly by Arion,2. 1-2, ,out of 8 , daughter of Director, with a record o1 : FPS, only brought $750 in New York Here is breeding of the most 7 fashionable lines, still she probably lacked individual merit. Her breed 7 CT lost $1750 on service fee alone besides her cost of keeping. Nov = what 1 propose is this, to see whict } stallion is producing the best colts: Al the foals from 1889 to 1893 can be rep l., resented. 1 have the following sired b.
