Some mares from which bur little was expected as producers of fast performers have produced standard speed with uniformity and others equally nupromising have become noted as producers of extremely fast trotters. When the man who formerly owned the notional mare. Mary Mays, traded her for a mule worth SloO. he was well satisfied with his trade for the mule would pull a plow and Marv Mays could not be iorsuadcl to perform that kind of lalior.

The local horse markets offered aud disposed of fully twelve hundred horses during the past week. All kinds of horses were in de-maud and ready buyers were found at prices that realized a profit to the consignor. Out-of-town buyers were out in force, securing carload lots to ship home for retailing among their customers. The city trade has begun in earnest and many contractors are attending the sales, picking up good young- stock to work during the coming season.

The farm trade Is pretty well supplied, yet there is quite a demand for chunks to be used for farm purposes. Coach and park horses are finding ready takers at good prices and saddle horses are in greater demand than for several years back. Trotters and pacers are beiug moved at a profit for use on the road and for racing. At the special sale held at the Bull's Head Bazaar last week all horses of this class that were offered were sold, some at a profit and others at a loss, but the average made money for the dealers. The Atlantic City Horse Show Association have departed from their usual custom of holding an outdoor show at the Inlet Park, and will give a meeting under eover at the new concrete pier.

Laurence O'Brien is hustling for entries and from the reports given out, is meeting with nnusual success. Many of the leading sportsmen who have horses eligible have signified their intention of competing for the ribbons. No better proof of the enduring popularity of the horse could lm advanced than the maintenance of horse shows in which the spirit of profit and commercialism Is. entirely eliminated.
