something of a stole, so he bound up
his wound without seeking assistance.

cribed the accident "But how on

thrilling Race Marks
Games of Singer 4. 4.
THE HIGH WATER
MARK IN RACING
REACHED IN 1903
W. S. Vosburgh Gives Figures
Covering Period of twenty
seven Years.

Figures IN the possession of Walter
S. Vosburgh, the Official Handicapped
Of the Jockey Club, give some idea Of
the shrinkage n the production Of the
thoroughbred in the United States dur
ing the last decade. This official has
minute record Of his labors for the
twenty-seven years be has been adjust
ing the weights, and from them it is
CLEANED that the high water mark for
the racing of thoroughbreds in this
country was reached in 1908, when he
handicapped no fewer than 300 indi-
vidual horses.
When it is remembered that there
were other thousands of horses that
did not race on the Jockey Club courses
Mr.. Vosburgh's jurisdiction not ex-
tending 10 any Of the courses in Can
ada, California, Kentucky, Louisiana or
other distant ponts-some idea Of the
magnitude Of the thoroughbred breed
ing industry may be obtained.
The number varied from the maxi
mum IN 1908 down TO less than 5000
IN 1914, while TO date this year 1900
different horses have come up for Of
fetal consideration. By the close of
the Maryland season perhaps the total
will reach 5000.
The brighter days which have come
for the turf Will no doubt see a very
material increase for 1917. The foal
registrations in the Jockey Clubs stud
book for the current year are better
than in 1915. but the total is not so
great as many would think. much Of
our brood mare stock having been sold
overseas or put TO mental uses. many
good mares having become producers
of mules instead of race horses.
IL is from the extensive importations
Of English and French stock that this
new material will be recruited Already
more than 400 head of yearlings. brood
mares and sires have been imported in
1916, and with Thomas Walsh. j. @.
heene and Others abroad eager for
bargains there will be az least 500 for
Cign bred thOroughbreds on our shores
by New Years.
The fact that the agents from this
country are at present taking nothing
but the best bred ones that can be
found is being commented upon by
English farciers. who DO not relish the
thought OF parting with the blood
which has made turf history abroad.
Some of the earlier purchases for
American account were not remarkable
Ter either individuality or blood lines.
and they ran as they looked; but when
the Joel and Blanc studs were invaded
BY Messrs MacOmber and WiCener
there was a real protest that something
should be done 20 prevent the further
Cesnoiiation of the representative studs
Of England and France.
The announcement from Mr. Joel
that he would continue breeding has
scotbed John Bull somewhat, but
everywhere there is a demand for more
racing in order that the horse breeding
industry of England may not become
an empty shadow Of its former glory
when IL was the Thoroughbred nursery
of the universe.
