Man Is the best friend OF the dog.
Horses come next. but between the
dog and all other farm animals. from
the house cat to the COW and the beef
steer. there seems to he a natural en-
nifty. Dogs, however. are fond OF
sheep and gosts-but as diet. not as
living friends. Cows and sheep and
goats should be kept as free from as
ISOLATION with dogs as is possible. with
the exception OF the trained shepherd
dog. A dog walking through a cow
pen will often cause a decrease in milk
flow that amounts to more than the
cash value OF the dog Many dogs are

Caspian and o,iveyvoo4 win.

NEW YORK, Aug. 15. 49, Excellent
sport marked the closing day Of the
Empire City grand circuit meeting. The
2:1S trot brought field of eleven to
the wire, with Caspian, the choice, at s.
to 5. In most exciting finish he won,
from HE Boy by neck, with Dillon
Boy good third. The favorite had an
easier time in the second heat, winning
by length. Strathlane was a hot
choice for the first pace, selling at 100
to As for the field. He won the first
heat in good style, but was defeated by
Olivewood easily in slower time in the
next heat. The judges decided to
change drivers and put up John Curry
behind Strathlane., The result was a
superb finish, as the two heat winners
fought the battle all down the stretch,
and as they shot under the wire it
looked like dead heat. The judges
caught Olivewood's nose in front, and
the verdict was popular. Curry was
also applauded for his great drive.

Dick weIleA Set a worlds Record.
CHICAGO, Aug. 10. - Dick Welles
won the special match with E. g.
Smathers' Grand Opera at Harlem and
in doing so set new worlds record
for one mile on circular track. The
winners time was 1877 2-5, which ii
one-ffth OF a second of the record
made by Allan-a-Dale at Washington
park this spring. The race did not
amount to much as contest, as Grand
Opera was at no time near Dick
Welles, the latter winning in O common
canter. It was the universal opinion Of
horsemen who saw the race that Dick
Welles could have run the mile In :37
fiat had he been extended.
