SHEPHERD DOG CLUB.

Information that the American Kennel
Club proposed to increase its fee for
registering dogs after February from
81 to 81 In each case is causing some
disquietude among breeders, who feel
that they already have enough in the
way of taxes to contend with. The Shep-
herd Dog Club OF America is cutting
the Gordian knot by making progress on
plan to bring out stud book of its
own. This stud book will be accepted
by the Department of Agriculture at
Washington as the official record In the
breed. The fee for a single registry will
be so cents and for an entire litter SO,
which is on the lines of the stud book
in Germany for this breed. A very
gratifying progress Is reported and reg
istrations arc coming in from all parts
of the country by every mail.
The American Kennel Club has agreed
not to register any shepherd dog until
the pedigree has first been submitted
to the Shepherd Dog Club of America

of speed.
Didn't Meet Exterminator.
At Saratoga on August 81 he made
another brilliant performance in win
wing the historic Travers Stakes. With
129 pounds up he ran the first half in
46 S-5, the three-quarters in 10, the
mile in :35 3-5 and the mile and a
quarter in 2:01 As, beating both Upset
and John P. Grier from flag fall to fM-
ish and with seeming ease. The win
ner's time for the distance has never
been beaten, except when WhislS Broom

take at Belmont Park in 1913. Sir
Barton. however. equalled Man o. Wars

1t will always be matter Of regret
that Man O. War did not start against
Eyterminator for the Saratoga Cup on
August 81, when the gelding ran a mile
and three-quarters In 2 :56 3-5 with 1875
pounds up, making a new record for the
distance. Instead Of doing so he came
on to Belmont Park to virtually walk
over for the Realization Stakes, in win
ming which he ran a mile and five fur
longs in 2 40 As. lowering all records
for the distance by fraction less than
five seconds with 126 pounds up. This

water fowl. pigeons, hares, CAVES and
cage birds ever held in the world. Clerks
have been tabulating the entries since
January I, when the lists formally
closed, and they are still behind In
their tasks
There will be at least 49, individ-
pal exhibits. Last year the poultry and
water fowl entries totalled 2.124, the
bantams numbered 22S. the exhibition
pens, each of which contains five in
mates, numbered 270. while there were
1870 pigeons and 623 hares and CAVES.
In addition there will be fifty display
pens of fancy poultry and rare birds,
each of which will contain from thirty
to fifty inmates. It'is easy to see how
the individual exhibits will reach a total
of $1,000.
For the first time In twelve years
there will be an exhibition of cage birds
under the auspices of the Empire City
Cage Bird Club, of which Frank Gambo
Of Flushing. l.. l., is president. He ex-
poets to cage fully 400 specimens, rang
ing from the diminutive strawberry
finches to the gaudy red and blue mac
kaws. Every type of song bird will be
included. Each bird will be shown in
cage especially designed for the exhi-
btion.
Special exhibits will be of mich goats
and of standard bred utility poultry,
which will be sold just as they are re-
ceived from the farms and at a very
moderate price. The idea is to give to
the keepers of poultry fiocks in the SUBJ
urbs an opportunity to freshen up their
stock with standard bred fowl at a mod
crate cost.

HORSE BREEDING
SHOT TO PIECES

Preliminary figures from the Federal
census of agriculture for Ohio disclose
some interesting and important facts
concerning the number of registered
horses of the various breeds in the
Buckeye State. Ohio has long been
noted for its heavy drafters, but many
horsemen will be surprised to learn how
far they now outnumber the lighter
types. OF 1857 registered horses in the
State 6,4n are big ones, Percherons pre-
dominating to a truly remarkable eX-
tent. with 1929 stations and 3,517 mares,
thus making a total of 1876 Percherons,
as against 1875 for all other draft
breeds combined. Belgians number 1,411.
French draft 100 and Shires los. No re-
ports have yet been made on the Suf-
folks and the Clydesdales, but their
numbers are probably about the same
as those of the Shires.
OF the light breeds the trotters far
outnumber all others combined, and yet
there are only fifty stations and III
mares In the State, according to this
preliminary report. The number of
hackneys reported Is only nineteen. of
German coach horses fifteen and thor
oughbred runners thirteen. Morgans
and saddle bred horses, once numerous
in Ohio. are now negligible in numbers
and are listed among the call others" in
the census returns.
AS this Is the first enumeration of
registered or pure bred" live stock in
the history of the country no past re-
ports are available for comparison of
the figures with those of ten or twenty
years ago. but 1t is certain that the
falling off has been extraordinary in all
the light breeds since the advent of the
automobile. Ohio was once the stamping
ground of the Morgans in the West, its
! numerous thoroughbred stations in
cluded such sires as Gray Eagle and
Bonnie Scotland, while small studs of
trotters literally dotted the State. To-
day there are only two thoroughbred
stations within it's borders and of trot-
ting stations only fifty all told.

HARNESS HORSE
ISKING OF RING
English Exhibitor Spurns Of
fer Of Less Than 100000 for
Two High Steppers.
ny G. CHAPLIN.

1t is one of the striking singularities
OF the show ring that while the harness
horse has so far as actual use Is con-
cerned been hit harder than any other
by the advent of the motor car, an out
standing winner of this type is still
worth in the market far more than any
saddle horse or hunter, just as he al
ways has been. This fact was brought
out few days ago by a letter from
England notifying a once prominent
American exhibitor what It would cost
to obtain two hackney high steppers
that were among the leading winners at
last seasons shows. The Yankee horse
man wanted only one of the animals
but the British owners reply to his re-
quest for a price ran like this:
I'VE had not thought of selling -,
but If we do we might as well sell -
and start fresh some other time. To sell
the two the price would have to be big
any offer under 10000 for both would
not be considered"
Putting a price on horse and selling
1t are of course two different matters
but the correspondence shows what dizzy
heights the expectation of some owners
attain when they get a real good one
and find that q wealthy American would
like TO buy him. 1t is perhaps needless
to cross the Atlantic this winter.
The incident Is a reminder that the
high stepping harness horse has always
been the real king of the show ring, and
in some ways is to-day more secure in
his place than ever before. AS a class
the exhibitors of harness horses are the
pillars of the edifice, so to speak. One
has only to mention a few of them by
name-William II. Moore, Mrs. Loula
Long Combs. William Fl. Wanamaker,
Jr.; A. w. Atkinson, William du Pont,
r. Lawrence Smith, John r. Thompson
to prove the assertion. Only those who
take little or no account of the differ
ence between receipts and disbursements
are exhibitors of harness horses now
adays. when the added cost of obtaining
and shipping all the paraphernalia that
goes with them far exceed the expense
incident to showing any other type of
horses. And in the last analysis 1t is
doubtless the conspicuous ability and
willingness of their owners as n class
to foot the bills and treat the showing
of horses as a pleasure. pure and sim
pie, which makes them cost so much
more than any other type known to the
show ring.
