CURRENT COMMENT
Training Ground for Cavalry.

Referring again to the utilization Of horse
show grounds by the United states government
for the training OF cavalry mounts the asem-
bling OF horses carefully selected by lay ex-
perts and the tuition OF officers and troopers
with view OF demonstrations at horse shows
in this country and abroad. We cannot too
strongly urge those who have the interests Of
our military organizations at heart to take up
the subject seriously with the authorities Know
ing as do the remarkable facilities at such
show grounds Hollywood, Long Branch.
Bfocton. Mas: Rockingham, Salem. \. H. and
many other places on the eastern circuit, whore
the grounds idle and stables empty for sew
eral months in the year, 1t is really astonishing
that horsemen who generally fdrseeng
in matters pertaining to the establishment Of
racing etc. have not realized that with these
show grounds in daily by cavalry troops and
the militia, rapid Improvement tn the proficiency
OF riders and the education OF horses could be
eHtcted. 1t is in the great horse shows OF the
world where military displays OF a competitive
nature now being made Our outdoor horse
show grounds, and many of indoor horse
show buildings would be invaluable for this
purpose There is ample stahing at the
places mentioned for hundreds of horses. and
tho structures could easily be enlarged to ac-
co1nmodate n thousand or more. The show
Ri gs form ideal parade grounds. the fences are
all there and the general conditions are pre-
ctscly what met with at the international
&c ntests Now. that the army authorities have
taken up the matter of exhibiting military
mounts in open competition It is only another
step to the appointment OF experienced horse
men, like Charles Holloway OF hay Side l.. l.
who has purchased patches of horses for the
Engl lsha army. to act in the same capacity on
oehaf az the United States government There
are dozen other well~known experts whom we
could name off-hand who could undertake this
important service and guarantee 10 give salts
faction. In a few months there could be hun
dreds OF likely army mounts undergoing train
ng at these show grounds throughout this coun
try weekly or monthly displays could be ar
ranged and advertised, and the public would
mock TO see them, Then. when the annual
shows came around. large section OF the cata
logue could be devoted to military classes. II
Is SAFE To say that such large crowds would con-
gregate that standing room would be at a pre-
MUM to say nothing of the seating capacity OF
