MAN O. WAR TO BE
PRIVATE STALLION?
Breeders May Have No Oppor
tunity to Mate Mares With
Him in 1921.

American breeders Of race horses may
not have an opportunity to mate their
choice mares with the mighty Man o
War before 1922. According to an offi-
cial of the Jockey Club, the great son or
Fair Play and Mahubah is to be a pri-
viate stallion next season, his owner,
Samuel ID. Riddle, and his family hav-
ing all the mares 1t is deemed Wise 10
breed TO him. The number will be small
racing men generally having the notion
that better results may be expected from
twenty foals than from three or four
times that number.
That Man o. War might command
stud fee OF s2.500 and earn more In the
stud than he did in his first year on the
turf IL kept as public stallion Is the
belief OF good many horsemen. Un-
tried sires, fresh from their turf tri-
umphs. have long commanded the high
est stud fees In England. and the tend
ency among American breeders is APP
parently setting in the same direction.
Hourless, after his defeat of Omar
Khayyam. stood at $1,000, while Fair
Play, the sire OF Man o. War. was In the
same stud at a fee of. $500. But that
was before Mr.. Riddles colt had beaten
everything OF his age. Fair Play last
year stood at s1.500. and may COM
mand a still higher fee next year II his
popular son is private stallion.
There are breeders of long experience
who would hesitate before choosing be-
tween the horse that Is king of the turf
and the horse that Is the sire OF the
king IL they could breed to either Man
o. War or Fair Play at the same cost.
Turf history is dotted with the names of
great and well bred race horses that
were complete or comparative failures
as sires. Who knows whether Man o.
war may not be another Salvador? Time
alone can tell. but his dazzling speed,
his nervous energy, indomitable deter
mination and masculine character all in
dicate that he will prove to be great
stock horse.

LOSS OF 100000
HORSES IN EAST
Census Returns ShozU Small
Decrease on Farms.

Advance census reports, like prelimi-
nary election returns. are not infalllble,
yet they usually give a fair approxima-
ton of final results. The United States
Bureau of Census has just made public
preliminary figures covering the live
stock census for the States OF Delaware.
New Hampshire. Rhode Island and YER
mont These gave the number OF horses
and mules in 1910, and again In 1920,
In both agricultural and non-agricultural
service.
The 1910 figures revealed a total OF
61,92S horses and mules in non-agrs-
cultural service in these four States
while in 1920 the same territory had
but 37.417, a decrease of 24,5l1. or 3S.2
per cent. In ten years in the number OF
horses not on farms.
II the figures for the other States
disclose a corresponding situation as to
horses In Pennsylvania, Maryland. Del
aware and the eight States East and
North where conditions respecting use
and production are much the same. II
will amount 10 3s2.222 head very
sizable reduction in the last ten years.
The decrease in farm horses in these
eleven States is not nearly so great.
The four States referred to. for which
the preliminary census figures have peen
issued, show decrease from 16S.1sO
horses in 1910 TO 14s.717 IN 1920. or a
decrease OF only 1s,463 head. This is
approximately IL per cent. reduction
in ten years. On this basis the entire
eleven States will probably show a re-
duction OF 204.30s. The total loss in
horses of both farms and cities In this
area will probably run to 586.530 head.
The reduction indicates that an an
nual market for $4,000 horses has been
destroyed and demands for hay and
grain reduced by about s8S 1000. 900. fig
uring that each horse displaced con-
sumed $3.50 worth Of feed a year.
which is approximately correct Farm
ers have lost in two markets-in horse
sales and in the sale of their hay and
cnarse grains.

Rose Scott, 2:O6 IL, Winter

Though Sister Bertha, 2:02E, and
Arion Guy, 2:04A, the outstanding
-year-old trotters OF 1920. were
virtually unknown as two-year-olds, the
winter books are quoting short odds on
Rose Scott. 2 :061a, for the futurities for
three-year-olds In 1921. Fast as her
record is. she had few hard races, and
she was accounted equal to mile right

old OF the season by the records. was

Mrs. PompIe Satisfied Cows Were Not

One after the ether, customers had
come to the shop and complained
about the milk.
"What l want to know" said Mrs.
Pomple, who looked almost as thin as
the milk, sis what you feed your cows
on?"
"Feed them on?' snapped the dairy
man. ''Why, reckon we feeds them
better than good many human be-
ings know feeds themselves"-this
with a chalky stare at the thin Gus

were many boys and girls and they

milton Of Morals.

The tramp was a long, skinny indi-
vidual with a particularly villainous
cast of countenance, and he wore a
pair of trousers that had been de-
signed for a man of at least three
times his diameter. His rap on the
farmhouse door brought out sour,
hard-faced puritanical woman who
froze him with one glance and then
proceeded to eye him up and down
especially down.
'sYou needn't ask me for anything, !"

Before the fairy who had promised
to grant the requests of the toys and
clothes In the great children's store
had told the Wishing Fairy that she
was needed, the things in the store
kept on talking and wishing.
I'm tired of Dances" said the party
dress. Eyes. I'm tired enough of such
things. I'm no hand for conversations
either. just want to play"
'You don't know much about hands,"
said toy from nearby, ''if you say
you're not much Of hand for CONVEX
satiOn. Conversation is talk and is
done by moving the mouth and utter
ing sounds"
"Wen," said the party dress, IT'D
like to be a regular dress, instead Of
always fixed up as I am. wonder
why they made US to suit themselves
rather than to suit u.s."
'They might have asked US how we
wanted to be made" said the blue
apron.
"Of course" said the fairy. "you
were cut out to be what you are now.
still. If you want to change. I'll tell
you what I'll do about it. AS I prom
ised you, I'll call the Wishing Fairy.
She is not always around. but I know
she is tonight"
The fairy waved her wand and sang
to herself In a low, sing-song. Soon
there appeared another. fairy with a
wand of silver. She was dressed In
silver and her cap was Of a deep blue
like the sky.
"Hello. aprons, gloves, toys, books.
games. gold fish, party dresses, ging-
ham dresses" she called.
They all called back "Hello." That
Is, all the ones did who were awake
this evening and who weren't so tired
that they went to sleep at once.
"What is this hear that you want?"
she asked.

ST want to be a toy" said the gold
fish.
"And OH" said a pair of brown
jumpers. ST want to be myself. But
want a playmate. I'd like to have a
doll, please, Fairy"
"The doll you shall have" said the
fairy. It'll wave my wand"
The Wishing Fairy waved her wand.
and the whole store began to grow and
grow, it seemed. Each counter was
now like a store In itself and none Of
the counters were near each other.
There were great, enormous roadways
between the counters and the things
were all different themselves. The
gingham dress was now a party dress.
It was wonderful how a party dress
