In spite of denials to the contrary 1t
would appear from an Associated Press
dispatch from Lexington, KY, that Sena-
tor Joseph w Bailey of GAINESVILLE, Texas,
was really going into the breeding of
thoroughbreds on his Lexington estate. The
report says that the fveyear-old stallion,
Stalwart. by imported Meddler, Gam
Lamba imported Mortemer, owned by
Alexander Shields, has arrived at Senator
Bailey's farm, where he is TO go INTO the
stud. The senator has been very success
full as a breeder of light harness horses,
but doubtless believes that more and quick
er returns can be had from breeding from
runners that have the winning habit Inc
running horse is usually raced from his
two-year form until he finally breaks down,
while the trottng-bred horse is frequently
raced from his three-year-old form. Some
breeders of trotters-the late Cicero Hamlln
as a case in point-made it rule never to
race even light harness three-year-olds be-
lieVing that they lasted longer when they
had more age and produced better results
financially. Nevertheless, two-year old
colts and filles are raced but few, how
ever arrive at maturity sound. Imported
Meddler has proved himself to be a great
sire. He was the property of Mr. FORBES
of Boston, who imported him. At ms deatn
he was sold to the late w. c. Whitney OF
New York and is now owned by his son,
Harry C. Whitney who purchased him
from his fathers estate at a large price.
