Horse Racing. _ iy the minds of perhaps not a few there is an idaa that horse-racipg should not be encouraged, because it is assumed that the morals of the turf are not exactly what they should be to prevent men of character and integrity participating in the pleasure.
honestly, conducted trotting meetings | Perhaps there was a time when this assumption was correct ; but I believe the ‘imeris past when the transactions of the turf were not of @ savory character. No doubt, as in other affairs of life, there are to be fund among those who take part in horse-racing some whose actions tend to bring it into difrepute. The way to make racing decent and respectable is for men of character, who are interested: in the profitable development of the trotting horse industry, to take an active part in making our trotting meetings a success. When this is done, it is for the managers of race tracks to give liberal encourage- ment by off-ring larger purses for the various —_ ee ee Park Asso- )Clation, managed by Mr. C. W. Williams, \ breeder of Seen ing $90,000 in stakes. and purses Be trotted for in A nab. ; af
he intelligent breeding and develop- ment of the trotting horse have made mighty strides in the United States in the Since 1844 when Lady
trotted to her record of 2.264. The number has since risen to 5,865, including pacers. Men of wealth, of unquestionable character and standing in society, are numbered among the breeders of the United States. In California, Senator Stanford, one of the greatest and most liberal patrons of insti- tutions for the higher education of the! people, is the famous breeder of Pale Alto
Stock. Fa: including 11,000 acres, and lateowner g sire, thedead Election- eer. The Breeders of the country can be
counted bythe thousauds,and in their ranks is to be: found the man of humble means as well asthe willienaire. The breeder, trainer and driver of the .world’s highest priced trotter was a smal! breeder—a poor telegraph operator. It will be admitted that all hands are not going (o draw so rich a prize a8 Mr. Williams drew. But, then, to strive for*the highest place, although it is not always attained, is better every way than listless inactivity. ‘There is no department, connected wish agricultural life whieh requires more acquaintance with the practice and experience of those success- ful breeders who have demonstrated that, if it is desirable to produce the trotter with speed and endurance, it can only be done by starting right, avd followmg closely certain well-detined lines and principles governing ail animal life, that *‘ like pro. duces like,” and that jualities and instincts are (ransmitted-and intensified from gener- ation to generation. Itisa fallacy, which facts disprove, that the mongrel or nonde- script is just as likely to be a success in breeding high-class and valuable trotting stock asthe animal (not lacking in indi- vidual qualities), the representative of a family whose history must impress the student that ancestry is a valuable factor to be considered in the claims of various horses for the patronage of the public. The small breeder cannot afford to experi- ment. The millionaire can best take such a course. If his theories are not practi- cally successful he can bear the loss and disappointment.
In future letters, if time permits, I will take up the history of some of the founders of great families of trotters, and will show what their descendants have done as uni- form producers of speed. As some of their representatives are to be found in the stud in this Island, what I propose doing may, be interesting and instructive to your read- ers who admire the trotting horse.

Commissioner Capt. G. P. Cotton, who is now at San Pedro Sula, Honduras, stirring up interest in the World’s Fair, has secured a collection of over 400 varieties of birds, some of which are quite unknown to the out- side world, which will be exhibited with other products of Honduras, The extraordin- ary collection of batterflies and insects will not be far behind, and arrangements have been made to forward a fine selection of orchids to Chieago at an early date, so that they may be growing and blooming there in 1893.
In the city of Leipsic, Germany, thirty-four firms have declared their intention of partici- pating in the Columbian Exposition.
