BASE BALL.
woodbury. Easily Defeated WestviIIe
Yesterday by Ia to e.

The Country Club yesterday at Alcyon
Park won she deciding game Of the series
with Westyille by hitting both Miller and
Abbott hard. Both teams had won their
home game and each were out with their
strongest lineup. Dopson held the visitors
down to five hits, one of which scored
Westyille's two tallies. With one man oa
base, G. Davis connected with one of Dop-
sons straight ones and banged it over left
fielder Halls head for home run. West
vile was dangerous in both the first and
second innings. In the first inning with a
man on first and second and fast double
play, Dopson to Davis TO Mueller cut off
Westyille's hopes, and in the second inning
with man on sfirst and second and one
out, Dopson held them safe by good twirl-
ing.
Woodbury. scored three runs in both the
first and second innings by finding Miller
for seven hits. Abbott then went into the
box and was hit safely six times which
combined with Westyille's errors added six
more runs to the score. The hitting Of
Mueller, Wooibnry's second baseman, was
the feature Of the game, he having four hits,
one Of which was a triple to left, out Of
FIVE trips to the plate.

Alleged Conspiracy.
To seize the Property of Mrs. sarah
VAIN Hendriekson.

Former Judge John NJ Wescott and
Attorney Matthew Jefferson, acting as
counsel for Richard VAIN, of Allentown.
Monmouth county, fled an application be-
fore Vice Chancellor Leaning on Wednes-
day, asking for rule to show cause why
John Wilson, John Meirs, an attorney Of
Camden, and Ellen Richardson should not
be enioined from selling or parting with
any portion of the estate of the late Mrs.
Sarah VAIN Hendrickson.
The application sets forth the fact that
shortly before the death Of Mrs, Hendrick-
son, Msils induced her to deed al Fer
property to John Wilson, negro servant,
and Ellen Richardson, her housekeeper,
upon the plea that she owed to Wilson
some S., 600 for back wages.
The application recites the additional
facts that Wilson owed Mrs. Hendrickson
fully $1,000 in borrowed money, and charges
Meirs with s., 600 loan in 1905, and also
that he received the family diamonds
valued at 81, 600 and chest of old silver
plate worth at least SIS, 600
The bill also reeites that at the time of
her death Mrs Hendrickson was 80 years Of
age, and died intestate, and was not capa-
BILE Of making will, and also that after
the death Of the old woman Wilson, acting
under Meirs' adYice, took full charge Of the
property in accordance with the alleged
deciding of the estate to him.
u is also contended that Meirs wrote
letter to Sarah VAIN Nelson, asking for the
life insurance policy for S2, 700, which was
made out in form for her By her aunt, but
assigned to him.
Judge westcott charges that the whole
affair is one of conspiracy upon the part Of
Meirs to get control Of the property OF his
clients.

and judgment, he can claim many times
this price for his grain fed to nothing else
than growthy drafters Of his own raising or
by purchasing those disposed Of by some
farmer who fails to recognize the difference
in value between q finished and an nm
finished draft horse.
Gloucester County Democrat., 1907-08-08

A draft horse is unquestionabIy the ami
NAL for New Jersey farmers to produce He
is in crater demand than ever just now,
besides few farmers ever make the light
horse business pan out. You may in few
cases produce high priced road horses, but
NOT with the degree Of regularity possible
where your whole attention is directed to-
ward the draft horse. Breed for size,
weight, quality and good action. Misfts
don't count for much.
Gloucester County Democrat., 1907-08-08

Light or road horses must be we'll broken,
clean lirabed and strictly sound with beau
ty, symmetry and high action in order TO
command good prices, besides mated in
matched pairs and usually city broken.
When you get this sort Of specimen you
are hardly disposed TO part with it for less
than fancy price, hut even then it is the
exception for the farmer or producer to get
in on these record prices. It remains for
some middleman to make the 'fnd'' Of a
prospective high stopper, or fancy roader,
who by special training and tireless devo-
tion is able to land such animals in rich
mems stables where price cuts little or no
figure.
Gloucester County Democrat., 1907-08-08

No doubt few readers will doubt the
statement that horse flesh is worth SO cents
or 81 per pound. don't mean to say that
the animals are disposed of by scale weight,
but do infer that additional flesh or I'M
finished or half fat animals would be worth
that much money if feeders would recog-
nize the fact and feed them out The draft
horse market has always demanded heavy
horses, but never before has weight govern
ed the price as it does at the present time.
Horses weighing from !, 800 to 1900 pounds
sell at a premium, while light chunks tip
ping the scales at from 1850 to 500
pounds are proportionately discounted. Ib
is safe to say that four-ffths Of the horses
marketed as drafters weighing from ! 1900
to / 800 pounds could be made to weigh at
least 200 pounds more per head, providing
their owners would shove the feed into
them and sell them as finished horses.
Every pound Of flesh added to !, 400
pound horse that has the frame and confor-
nation to carry 900 pounds is we'll worth
25 cents per pound; likewise, additional
flesh on ] 1000 pound horses possessing the
above quality is worth so cents per pound,
and, when ], 700 pound horses in ordinary
flesh are finished and rounded ont the value
Of the extra muscles is well worth 81 per
pound. Feeders Of cattle and swine are
more than satisfied when they receive six
and eight cents per pound for finished beef
which comes well nigh paying rs cents per
bushel Of grain when the market is rated at
its present schedule. Why then, should
not the inisher Of draft horses prosper,
when, by exercising bit Of common sense
Gloucester County Democrat., 1907-08-08


just few days ago visited one of the
Oldest horse breeding establishments in
this little State and found four stations in
service, one Percheron weighing 1000
pounds, at four years old; another sort of
coach horse. and the other two toppy road
horses The last two were stylish and
rather active; were well kept and cared for
and to the eye were very pleasing. The
owner admitted that large PERCENTAGE of
his patrons preferred to use the smaller
horses, and that most of his trade was from
the farmers, but, " said he, 81 know they
are making mistake. II they would breed
to heavy draft horse they would produce
a salable class of colts, but now they sell
the misfts to the distriet jobber, who
breaks the colts and makes the heavy end
of the proftsn Ii is very evident that
such market centers as New York and Phil
adelphia within marketable distance of any
portion of this little State she opportunities
for money making draft horses are not
eqnalled, even in the West
Gloucester County Democrat., 1907-08-08

1t is common practice for harvest field
hands and hay makers to drink freely and
often from fresh supply OF water, but
how many of the horses are given re-
freshing drink during this same period.
Surely the few. OF course horses are not
human beingss but when it comes TO work
ing very hard in warm weather at heavy
load hauling or pulling the binder, I am
sure an occasional drink Of water would
cool their systems and refresh their energy
equally as much as it stimulates the men,
1t is not supposed, however, that any
horseman will allow his team to tank up
on cold water when in very heated state;
but it is reasonable to expect him to allow
them the privilege Of taking few swallows
to quench their thirst and driye the bnrn-
ing impulse away.
Gloucester County Democrat., 1907-08-08

On the other hand there is not so much
development or such as are possibly with
draft horses bnt rather ready and steady
ishes do not detract much from the selling
price and often youngsters are placed on
sale green and unbroken. Its weight that
brings premium with drafters and with
due attention to this one quality it IS
possible to supply horses at net profit. It
is sure folly to mate draft mare with a
roadster just to get something that can go a
little faster. It is not speed nor high action
that the farmer wants, but rather weight
and quality. These qualities are found
only in draft stations Of the low-down
blocky type, possessed of all the units
necessary to make up an ideal specimen.
Gloucester County Democrat., 1907-08-08

1t must be remembered, however, that
the draft horse breeder, the owner Of. farm
mares must cease his everlasting dabbling
with fast or light road horses, making un-
fruitful attempts to raise horse with a
record; one that will bring possibly $500 in
about one case out of fifty, the 49 selling at
loss when the care and feed is considered
Any mar. especially the farmer who tills his
soil, has no business dipping in on side lines,
but rather should be content to follow the
conservative lines of his business, and if he
is raising horses on his farm, road ones are
side lines, while drafters are the dependable
ones If you are going to be jocky and
run a race horse stable, it is all right to go
into such business, but for the sake of your
own success, if you are grain or general
live stock farmer, don t meddle with sulky
carts or fast horses. It ruins nearly every
farmer who ever attemnted it, besides the
environment is far from wholesome or even
decent. 1t is just like trying to paint a
barn with feather when brushes are
plentiful and cheap. Stick to the draft
horse.
There is place for the road horse, how
ever, and we could not do without him,
but it is business that belongs to special
breeders. Neither is it wrong for the farmer
to raise enough for his own use, but rather
what am condemning IS the idea Of whole
sale breeding Of farm mares to road horses.
Il is paying business TO raise these light
horses if one has the time and temperament
TO properly care for, break and educate
them, in fact, there is always demand for
the best Of them, but TO reach this end, road
