With the decided, decrease of ae-
tivity in the raising Of thoroughbred
Horses, comes a commensurate i'm
petus in the business and interests
OF breeding and developing the light
harness horse. The fast driving
horse is now the ideal animal of the
American gentleman, and the de-
mand for American driving trotters
has never been greater, is continu-
ously increasing, and has even
reached foreign shores. Men OF
means are familiar with the delights
of hunting to hounds, OF thrashing
to windward in yacht, OF scoreh-
sng in a motor car; they know the
Joys of the point to point steepie
chase; of polo, and all other forms
of outdoor sport; yet, all agree that
the acme of human Joy is felt only
in the thrill that attends the driV-
ing of a smooth-going. rapid gated
trotfer, at a high rate of speed, and
the ticklish sensation one feels when
first seated in rakish little speed |

men give years of study and atten-

constitutes the truest type OF the
Kentucky horse. than R. A. Tyler,

drouth, but improved elsewhere on

The situation in Texas and Okla

shedding being reported in the driest
places. Temperatures were very
high an most times, which makes the
lack of moisture more acute. A good

crop wonderfully, but its growth and

however, been severe, and the plant
has not yet recuperated, and drouth
continued for long will work great
injury. During the coming week
moderate showers would be helpful.
Reports are irregular. There is
some very good cotton, much that Is
Indifferent and some that is exceed
ingly poor. The plant is generally
small and is now beginning to bloom
freely and make hollis. II will be
cultivated much later than usual,
and If the frost date is long delayed
and the August and September mois-
ture supply is sufficient to enable the
setting of bolls to continue late
their is yet hope for fair or good
crop. Without late autumn reports
indicate a very moderate outturn In
the valley and Atlantic states.

The farm embraces a tract of 1927

The Oakwood Stock Farm has, for
several years, been devoted to the
breeding of trotting horses, and the
owner, r. A. Tyler, has invested a
considerable amount Of money in
securing the purest strains from
which he has developed the most
perfect individuals Of the trotting
family. His success is well shown
In the enumeration OF a few of the
inmates of his stables. The grand
old horse,
"AIfred G." 12,452, 4 w., 2:10%,
has been one of the great American
racers in his day, starting 16 times
and never out of the money. He is
