Who plants tv tree -
Plants not what is, but is to be-
A hope, 5 thought for future years,
A prayer, a dream of higher things
That rise from* out our doubts anu
fears, _ ,
As seed or acorn from the cold
And dungeon darkness 'if the mould
To light upsprings_
Who plants a tree ‘
Blesses earth’s children yet to be
Toilers shall rest beneath its shade,
The dreamere dream ol' golden hours,
And frolic youth and Winsome maid
Shall bless the shadow that it gives;
So, happy birds among the leaves,
And lowly flowers.
Plants aspiration heavenly

The announcement is madethnt Jess
Willard. the champion boxer has pur-
chased the once famous Highland
Stock Farm. near Dubuque, Ill., where
Nutwood 2.18%. and other noted trot-
ting horses were owned a quarter oi
it century ago. H. L. and F. D. Stout
who owned the horses and the farm,
had a veritable gold mine in thc'
boom days of breeding trotters_ Nut-
wood commanded a stud fee of $1,000
and his coltswere readily salable at
from $2,000 to' $10,000 each. i

The word from 'i‘oronto_is that ueith
er_ the ~ Dufferin Driving
Club nor the Toronto
Driving Clubwill hold their trotting
meeting this spring. This has been
_deéided owing to the lack of entries in
'thedfferiieng classes. A year ago all
thx; events; were 'well filled, _'lint this
se _hon there’ isa ‘dearth _'of trotting
material. (ine of the reasons is the
backward spring. which has put
'horsemen at `a disadvantage in pre-
-paring their charges,'while another
reason is the fact that American horse-
men are laboring under the idea that
if they ship to Canada their horses
may be comrnandered by the Govern-
ment. _Bothclubs intend to hold meet-
ings later on in the season, probably
in October. '

Eight stakes, each worth $400, com-
prise the early closing programme for
‘ the harness races at the Nova Scotia
Provincial Exhibition, to be _held in
Halifax from September 18th tn 21st.
The events are similar to those _ln-
cluded in tlie_ilalii'ax programme each
'year' and should pretty well 'suit the
campaigning stables to be sent out
from P. E. island this_year_ The com-
plete list follows:

Entries for the stakes are to close
on June 20th, and horses must. have
been, eligible on M_ay_ 22nd. which
ineans that Victoria ‘Day records will
_not be,a bar in any of these events.
The class races will be announced
later and will probably be equally as
many in number and likely will have
purses of the same value.

that there were thirty-four events uu-
