A starting Judge can do more to
add to the success of a race meeting
or to detract therefzom than any other
official. A capable judge Is a. valuable
acquisition, while an incompetent is
a menace to the racing game.
Grand Forks offers a purse for the
1900 class pace. This is an excellent
idea and viii meet with the general
approval OF all that class who are
breeding raising youngsters for the
speed class In the 300 classes will
be found a larger percentage Of green
ones than in the 2:40 or 2:45 classes.
And the man with a novice at the
game does not like to start him against
horses who have been racing a season
or more.
The stake entries for the Winnipeg
July meeting closed April is. Entries
for the class races close July 2. The
eight running races close the day be-
fore the races. The meeting is July
14-22.
The stake races for the Great North

With the advent of the brick pave
ment in Fargo the owners of driving
horses are finding the use of pads
under shoes advisable. It takes off
the concussiOn.
SThe Huron, s. D., management make
a nice bid for those who are attempt
ing to promote the breeding of race
horses in the northwest. Among their
early closing events MAY 16) are D
year-old and 3-year-old trots and SIM
liar events for the PAGERS Of same age.
The races are to be half mile heats,
two I'm three, for colts bred in South
Dakota. The idea is worthy of emu
lation. The Montana meeting also has
2-year old and 3-year-old trotting
classes. Winnipeg has a S-year-old
trot or pace. --.s q.

there will be something didding." All
of which goes to show that the great
northwest is rapidly becoming the
mecca Of the horseman.
The old-style training system of
sweating and scraping a horse until
he was weak and rubbing him until
he was dry, incidentally giving him
