THE GREAT EQUINE,
STAR POINTER, At
ROSEWOOD FARM
THE GREAT CHAMPION OF RACE
TRACK TO MAKE THE SEASON
IN MAURY.
TENNESSEE COMES INTO Her OWN
Francis Mckinney 44o3o-GeneraI Lee
134s-Porto Rieo-Read the An
nouneement in This Issue Of The
Herald.

1t is with much interest to the
breeders of Tennessee and Maury
county especially to know that the
great race champion Star Pointer
1:59A is at their services for breed
ing purposes. This animal was the
first in the world to pace mile in
less than two minutes. He is the orig
inal two minute beater' and he did the
feat without wind shield or without
runner accompanying him. For
many years he has been making stud
seasons in Ohio and California, and
Tennessee has felt that she was being
deprived of her rightful claim on one
of her own bred animals, and it re-
NAMED for Bob williams to right
this wrong. Mr.. Williams fully real
lied the merits of the horse and the
rights of the breeders of this county
to have a chance to breed to the best
and when Bob Williams makes up his
mind to do a thing 1t takes only a
short time for him to put his plans
into action.
Last winter Mr.. Williams was in
Columbia and stated to a Herald re-
porter that he would have something
good for the people of Maury county
this season and that not only would
he have one horse that would be wor-
thy of the fine mares Of Maury county
but that he would have several. Mr..
Williams has kept his promise and has
gathered together at Rosewood Stock
Farm a string of stations that can
not be beaten anywhere in the coun-
try.
Star Pointer was sired by Brown
Hal 2:12A, the greatest race horse
that ever pulled a sulky over track
and the greatest sire that ever lived.
A Maury county product, and after
racing all over the union he was
brought back to his native county and
allowed to spend his days here. The
same ought to be the case with his
son, he should be kept here the re-
mainder of his days.
In addition to Star Pointer Mr.. VIII
liams offers the services Of Francis
Mckinney 44O3O, by the great McKin-
ney 2:11A, first dam Frances Axinite.
This horse is not only royalty bred but
is a real trotter.
General Lee 134S registered sad
die and harness stallion sired by For
est Denmark dam Carrie B., will also
be found at Rosewood Stock Farm.
Imported Porto Rico, champion
gated saddle pony, who made the sea-
son of 1909 at South Side Park will
be in the stud at the same place.
Mr.. Williams has number OF 9TH
ers at his stables and invites the
breeders of the county and State to
visit his place of business. Read the
announcement in this issue OF The
Herald and watch the parade at the
Horse Show next Monday. All OF
these animals will be on exhibition.

a horse possessing every requisite 10
make a truly great sire.
Empire Hal is a beautiful black
horse with commanding conformation,
standing 16 hands and weighs 1850
pounds. He is strong in bone and
muscle, without being coarse, and a
glance at his pedigree should con-
vince the most skeptical that he has
every right of inheritance to become
the leading sire of the South, Mr..
Geers says: "He is one OF Brown
Halls greatest sons, and as a sire
bright future is predicted for him"
From every angle he is pre-eminently
possessed of every quality necessary
to become the South's leading sire.
AS a stable companion for the
above named horse, Mr.. Alexander is
offering to the breeders, that splendid
" bred young sire Actonward, No.

to his care, in fact we do not know OF
any farm with better blue grass past

fail to read the advertisement OF Mr..

many months of ill-health here. during
which time he steadily declined, he
accepted the advice of physicians and
friends and went to the Coast in the
hope of prolonging his life either by
q change Of climate or an operation.
That he believed he would live longer
is evidenced by the fact that he had
set his heart on going to San Pedro TO
witness the departure of the yacht Ha-
wall in the transpacifc race to Homo
