That night we were to take turf. in our first action and each was wrapped in his own thoughts and the silence was almost oppres- -IW.

FARM SOLD

one of the most important tran- sactions in harness racing in years was the sale last week of the I30-acre Galnsway Farm. Lexington. Kentucky, to a group of businessmen. The price was reported as Iiiilthflll. It will be used as a site for a Il5.tl)0.tI! L ' ,, 4- ' ' The pro- prietors of the farm were Mr. and Mrs. Clarence F. Gaines. Mrs. Gaines started making dog food in her kitchen. while Mr. Gaineai peddied it around. it was so well liked that they built a small fac- tory, the capacity of which was so taxed that new and larger premises had to be built from time to time.

Rilly Hauizhton has expressed himsclf in the followingi "Sure.i IIIP purses are a major fat-tor.t But before we ever race there again. they've got to fix up the frat-it and the stable accom- niotiations.
