entry lists for State fair stakes that have
already closed are very large, and are so
encouraging to Secretary Smith that he
prophesies the greatest fair held in the
history of California.
There will be particularly attractive
programme in the thoroughbred depart
ment this year, and already SO many
owners have entered first-class animals
that the State Agricultural Society has
decided to give no races for aged horses at
less than six furlongs. This is move in
the right direction and one that all true
lovers of the thoroughbred will appre-
ciate.
As Secretary Smith says. "there is no
room for the sprinters,' and the quicker
owners realize this the better it will be for
the sport of kings.
Galen Brown, owner of the great Liber-
tine and other crack racers, will arrive at
the fair grounds in about ten days. and so
many others have applied for stable room
as to make it certain that fully 500 horses
will be quartered at the track by Septem-
Der 1.
Space in the pavilion is already at pre-
MUM, and as the time for the fair draws
