AS racing is encouraged in foreign
countries and these countries are far in
the lead in the production of horses of
quality, one must conclude that the
racetracl1 is absolutely essential in the
welfare of the horse.
Racing has been conducted on large,
beneficial scale in this country until
lately. the purses offered have been as
large and magnificent as those offered
in foreign counties, and this has been
the means of attracting to this sport
and industry men of prominence from
all walks in life. many who have gone
into the business on large scale inn
porting from foreign countries the best
blood that money could purchase. They
are therefore responsible to great
extent for the class of blooded horses
we find in this country at the present
time. IN former years this sport of
kings. was looked upon with a more
kindly eye BY the public. and it ap-
peared at one time that America was
to take the lead in the production of
'.thoroughbreds. Now many who were
actively engaged in this industry and
many who were contemplating joining
have retired or forsaken the American
field for that of the more profitable one
