Interest Is Revived
There is no denying the fact that
there's a big revival now Of interest in
the turf sport in many OF the states
where racing was abolished some years
ago and where there was a bitter feel
ing toward the sport OF kings,
revolution has come The people seem
to want racing again-but they want
honest racing
There is a big agitation in Missouri

state Undoubtedly a bill viii be pre-

Good Horses Are Scarce.
A general revival OF the racing game
cannot come for a number Of years. at
least, because Of the scarcity Of horses
Ten years ago there were many i'm

but the killing OF the turf game in
many states where il used 20 flourish
caused the closing OF many Of those
farms.
Today there aren't enough firstcIass
horses in America 20 populate more
than five or six tracks. It would re-
quire from three to five years to herd
enough horses to supply the tracks II
racing were revived in the half dozen
states where there is a possibility OF
the turf game being restored.
