Mr. Editor:?Please give us space
in your valuable columns for a few
words about oui coining stock ??how.
The place now, with its several
buildings and beautiful track, for
the track is indeed a splendid one,
is beginning to attiact attention, and
to look like we ?ne in business, It
is great fun lor the boy>, and older
persons too, however, to climb into
the Mand these afternoons end
watch the colts as they are rya'c
t;ccd on the track, ten or twelve in
number, from six months to three
years old. and some of them mag
nificent horses n'oyv, while others
of them promise to be soon.
If you love to sec racing come to
Grayeourt on "September i6l\) and
37th and I guaran'ce you will sec
plenty of it, for there aic ten horses
here under training for the races be
side what arc being trained on other
tracks. 1 have heard as yet from
only six outside''horses to be' enter
ed. I mean by that horses of some
Speed. IJi't please bear in mind
'that wc have the grounds incotpo
ratcd and no hi tting will be allowed
and no whiskey bo sold, for there
will be a strong police force to look
after that matter and a place to ac
commodate off end er s and keep
ibem out of mischief, Good older'
will be preserved at all hazards.
There will ho no game -, of chance
allowed on the grounds, so persons
expecting to run such traps need
not apply for license.
'J lieib Vvill bei provisions made lor
those who come from a distance.?
Bring On your hors.es oh Wednes
day. Como to the (air grounds
where yon will find stalls for your
stock and comfortable quarters for
yourselves, where wc can toed and
take care of you until Saturday
morning, if necessary, at reasona
ble rates. .So d?h'i Sta) away be
cause Graycourt is such n small
place that you can't find it on the
