WILL HOLD HORSE
SHOW MEETING
OPEN AIR MEETING MAY BE
ANNUAL EVENT
Business Men Confer Tomorrow Re-
gardIne the Feasibility Of a
Proposition to Exhibit
Fine stock

Invitations have been issued to a
number of Los Angeles business men
requesting their presence at the horse
show meeting that is to be held In the
office of Byron Erkenbrecher, 203
Braly building, tomorrow afternoon at
p. m. The proposal involving an
open air horse show for Los Angeles
was published exclusively In the Her
aid of Friday last.
Whether Los Angeles Is to unite
with New York. Chicago and other
cities in making the horse show a
prominent factor of the social and bus
mess world of the city will largely de-
pend upon the outcome Of tomorrow
conference, at which time the FEAST
bility of the proposal will be discussed
from both standpoint Of anu sement
and municipal value.
A. z. Ashbrooke of Kansas City, who
has successfully launched many or the
greatest equine shows Of the country,
arrived but recently in Los Angeles
for the purpose of fostering the growth
Of an enterprise which he believes will
meet with approval and success in
Southern California.
Mr.. Ashbrooke's interest In the pos
sibilitles of a Los Angeles exhibition
was awakened two years ago at the
instlgation of Ferd K. Rule; treasurer
Oh IHe odl 1euTO, LOS Angeles ana
Salt Lake Railway company.
When seen last night Mr.. Ashbrooke
said that so far as he could prophesy
the meeting of tomorrow would be pro-
ductive of a sentiment favoring the
proposition.
"There is absolutely no reason so
far as 1 am able to judge" said Mr..
Ashbrooke, why Los Angeles would
not prove an ideal place for such an
exhibit Climatic conditions could not
be improved upon and the proposed
show would be held out of doors. Dur
ing my brief sojourn SO far have been
attracted by any number of pairs
which would look well in any horse
show, and I see no reason for enter
ing other than Southern California
horses, beyond the eastern flesh which
owners have shipped west for the win
ter"
When questioned as to the first steps
that will be taken, should the move
ment on foot find adoption at tomor-
rows meeting, Mr.. Ashbrooke said that
temporary organization, preceding a
permanent one, election of officers and
Incorporation would ensue. The ar
rangement for entries and prizes will
be the initial work of the committees
Mr.. Ashbrooke has already looked
into the situation involving a suitable
site for the exhibit and, although re-
ticent as to naming the location, says
that he has found a most desirable
place for holding show in the event
of the proposition becoming reality

son and expressed the opinion that his
bunch would make a better showing in
the pennant race than they did last
season.
'Puddin" Mcdaniel won another
handicap Saturday and added another
reason for bestowal Of the title OF the
"handicap rider" The little rider won
the Rose selling stakes with Rubric on
New Years day and has ridden the
winner OF four out of FIVE of the mid
week handicaps, in addition to win
ming many of the free $500 handicaps
that were featured during the nine
weeks of racing just past. During the
earlier weeks of the meeting "Puddin'
did not ride in his best form, but he
has more than made up for 1t since
the new year was ushered in and Is
now going at a clip which will worry
some of the other jockeys who aspire
to lead the bunch at the end of the
meeting. He is always trying to his
utmost and It Is no fault of his II his
mount is not first to the wire.

AUTO USED FOR
VARIED PURPOSES
COSMOPOLITAN NATURE OF SELF
MOVERS
The Farmer Has Recourse to Auto
Agricultural Machines In the Form
Of Threshers-Make Excel
lent Lawn Movers q

OF what use is the automobile?
Rather, what use cannot be made OF
1t, for It's aid to man Is incalcula BILE d?
Besides the familiar adaptations in We
hicles for pleasure and commercial
uses, the self-propelled machine is be-
coming of increasingly greater use in
other lines.
The warrior and man Of army tao
tics has imagined the automobile as
playing most important part in war
fare, and there are many schemes to
utilize 1t as movable fort, which,
properly protected, can advance or re-
treat at the will of the operator, while
the men behind the guns deal death
and destruction to the enemy.
For Country Use
The automobile has a distinct ad.
vantage over the horse, in that it can
rot be killed, and with armor thick
enough to defect shot and shell, it GER
tainly is destined to play a most i'm
rortant part in warfare. It is suscep-
tible to the slightest touch of the man
at the lever and obeys his slightest
wish far better than the trained
horse. 1t does not have to be whipped,
and, under the proper guidance, does
anything and everything that is asked
of it, going wherever horse can go
and never firing.
On the farm, too, the automobile Is
having greater and greater chances for
use. The farmer has been having his
country roads rolled and his threshing
machine operated these many years by
utomobiles-only the machines have
been called steam engines and steam
rollers. They are self-propelled ma
chimes, and hence automobiles never
theless.
Self-PropeIIed Lawn Mowers
Now country clubs and the parks are
having their lawns cut and rolled by
self-propelled lawn mowers. 1t is only
question of time, the sanguine man
ufacturers believe, before most of the
heavy and light work on the farm will
be done by self-propelled vehicles, and
the horse, mans aid on the farm from
time immemorial, will be relegated to
idleness.
In the city, aside from the usual COM
mercial uses, there are ambulances,
swifter flying than the horses; hearses,
somber, rubber tired, and moving with
out the noisy clatter of horses hoofs
omnibuses, fire engines chemical en-
gines and patrol wagons. To all of
these uses are automobiles put, and it
is believed they will be employed in
increasing numbers as time goes on.
Certainly the field is broad, and the
industry has but just begun.
The latest scheme for the automobile
is the adaptation of it's power to
sledges to carry explorers to the south
pole. Even the lowly dog is to be
relegated to the rear by the allan
bilious automobile.

NEXT CARD WILL
BE HEAVYWEIGHTS
BURNS AND HART TRAINING
FOR BATTLE
Tommy Ryan to Commence Boxing
With the Kentucklan Today and
Indications Are for Fast Contest
When the Men Meet

The next attraction in the contin-
uance fistic matinees of Tom McCarey
will be the heavyweight battle be-
tween Marvin Hart, the Kentucky
thoroughbred, and Tommy Burns of
Detroit.
Hart established training quarters
at Santa Monica three weeks ago and
has since settled down to the prepar-
atory work. When he arrived in Los
Angeles he appeared in good condi-
ton and has already played havoc
with fifteen pounds Of blue grass
flesh.
Dave Barry, the sturdy boxer, who
gave AL Kaufman such a gruelling
struggle a few weeks ago. has been
working with Hart, and today Tommy
Ryan will commence sparring with the
big fellow and from now until the day
of the bout will box from four to ten
rounds with the big fellow.
Ryan's knowledge of the finer
points of the game is inferior to none
and will be of great assistance to the
heavyweight, whose hitting powers
are sadly in need Of the added foot
work and GOODNESS which goes with
the top-notch boxer.
Burns, who is training at the Lewis
gymnasium, will appear much heavier
than ever before, and with the added
with Hart, whom he over-tops in the
way of cleverness. He has been
training for weeks, and with the as
sistance of Jack Irwin" Sullivan and
several minor lights is rapidly round
ing to the best trim of which he is
capable.
If Burns fails to get the decision in
the coming contest with Hart there is
small chance Of his ever reaching the

Al Kaufman, who has been prom
ised a go with the winner, is daily
spectator at Burns quarters and is
taking a deep interest in the outcome
of the pending battle.
