number and quality of the horses named,
ever secured by the society. Last year
169 horses, were named, making the BAN
ner list UP to that time. This year
the total Is 212, an increase of 4S over
the largest list in the previous history
of the fair. The racing Will begin

strength and character to the whole pro-
gramme
