'A CCORDIXO te our et best historian, who wouldn't knew n I sheet
V or a bundle of racing done If they met them en thf street, n little blnl
Hew from Indiana across the Ohie Klicr a few trnturlc nse nnd had n small
blue-grass seed in its fentlurs. Ln tiding en the friendly llmc-teti soil of
Kentucky, this seed took root and spread and, frail an It wns, drove away
Wry eflicr kind of grass ntul thistle from it, path and brought Inte being 1"
tnat section an !mlutry destined te link the name of Kcntuck forever with
the thoroughbred horse.
Thin Is the dope furnished bj the historian, and while there might be
aernc discrepancy regarding the origin of the well-known and often-mentioned
blue grass, there Is no doubt about the thoroughbred here. They arc In
Kcntuck In large numbers and are worth million.
In one section of the Ului' Cr.iss State there nic no les than forty-seven
thoroughbred fnims comprising .1 total of 2e.SU acres, and arc nsesed this
year at $(M)57.:ine. The therutighbrrd horses en thee farms hae been
Messed at $7,SST.-I1', making n grand total of 917.S44.712.
There arc millions of persons throughout the 1'nited States vhe have n
fondness for the thoroughbred and the turf and are faith familiar with the
breeding industrj. who will be astounded by the nbee figuie-. which were
taken from the tax duplicates jii Kentucky. The figures were made public b
the Kentucky .letkey Club te combat reform measures pending beterc the
Kentucky Legislature, which sought te write en the statute books the law:
"Theu s'halt net cendurt rme tniptlngs in the laud of llinry (.'lny, (icncral
Breckinridge and Procter Knett. ' The bill was promptly snowed under.
Again digging into the historical Muff we find that the Immortal Lexing
ton, for twehc jear- the leading stallion of the world, hidden here and 'heir
?rem the British in the tlnjs of the Involution, was mused back te lite fiem
ripple und nurtured en Kentucky -oil. Since that date the champion" of
the tilrf bred in thin count rj, in the main, ewe their erlsin te the blue-gross
ectien of Kentucky.
yOY' only is that tme of the tuir hone the foundation of all geed
A breeds of heisa but another astonishing 'if t it that saddle hones,
eeaih herset. general patted and scriirr animals arc the bays of
another great industry of tchich the thoieughbred is the show tdndew
and the inspiiatien.
,917,814.712 Werth of Farms and Horses
BUT let's return te the fart- and figgci, meaning the acscd valuation of
S17.S44.712 en the thoroughbred farms and horses. We can bring In some
mere clght-fusured stuff without pniislng for hre-ith. l'eihnps it Is surprising
te note that "during the jear 1021 mere than S10.000.000 was distributed in
takes and purses te owners of laee horses, and taxes paid te the State where
racing is permitted and te the lVdetal tievernment totaled ether millions of
dollars. All of which might be used for argumentative purposes.
As for the breeding farms. Mis l-lizabPth Dalngerfield owns Haylands.
rensUting of 3S1 acres, and assessed at ?100,eOO. Her horses are alucd at
W27.000, making n total of SI .11 -.."00. Miss Uaingcrfield is noted for her
kindness and fondness for horses 0nd has the great Man ()' War in her keep
ing. She Is net Interested In racing, but earns her livelihood from breeding
thoroughbreds nnd selling the prduct for racing purposes.
Hamburg Place, owned by Jehn I'. Madden. cuiiMMs of 2111 ncics and,
with the horses, is valued at S1,Pfi7.."P0. The largest place In the State is the
Xaltpa Farm, owned bj K. V Simms. It has 2700 acres and is assessed,
horses included, for $1,072,000. Miss liaingei field, although ewninj the
smallest fnrm, lends in the mine of thoroughbreds.
There are many ether places weitlij of note. Edward It. Bradley pays
Uses en $743,000 and Hal Price Headley kicks in en $1,110,100. Harrv
Payne Whltnej's holdings ate valued at 3001,000 nnd August Belmont is
present with $518,000.
THIS list sheics the i a n ye of lalues and the stability of the people
engaged in brcediun Ihoteughbrcds in Kentucky. Alse the
importance of the industru te the Staff.
Pennsylvania Net Backward
F' MUST be icmembered that the thoroughbred industry by no means Is ton ten
fined te Kcntuckv. That State is en! the parent, nnd In times when the
breeding farm has been run out by adverse legislation, Kentucky has ever
upheld the banner of the thoroughbred, and nursed tiic breeding Industry until
It was revised In ether States.
Maryland under the stimulus of racing has forged nluad as n breeding
Slate In the last few jears, and new has sonic of the largest establishments In
the country. Commander .T. K. I., lleis, the Canadian sportsman, has n big
nursery In Maryland. Samuel ). Kiddle has a farm at Berlin. Md.
rcnns)lania is net backward In breedin1; thoreiighbieds. nrdenheim. the
fine. estate of CJeerge 1. Widener, is famed all ecr the country. Jeseph' V..
TYidencr is one of the leading heremen in the teuntiy and recently lias pur
chased a stock farm in Ktntuckj, in addition te Ins nrtMties in Philadelphia
New Yerk and New Jersey nre the homes of some great tlforeiighbrcd
.firms, such as the Illldreth-Sluelair Knweras Kami. Harry Payne Whitney
bas a farm at Bed Bahk. "Willis Sltarpe Kilmer has established a great
nursery in New Yerk Sun Hilar Court, which is one of the lending studs in
this or any ether ceitntrj. Sun Briar Is the kins of the court. Then there Is
the Short Grass stud, n New Yerk institution of great proportions. Short
Grass, an imported herc. is the lending stallion. .
Virginia, Ohie, a part of Tenni te nnd California aie coming back as
breeding centers. Wjemlug and Texas also are turning mere te the Industiy
8 of yore. There Is a strong mete te lewve lacing in California, headed by
the Sprcckcls Interests.
YEXTUCKY serins ec ns a

By SANDY MrNIIMACK
Till' lln.t gun of the war en ex

In Philadelphia. A golf lub has been
formed wh'rein en '"ilk down ,2.1
as jour Initiation fee and thereafter dig
down for the 111111 of S"J per month ns
dues, in ether words we new have a
I club In Plilladelphl 1 whose prime object
I Is 10 knock the "up" mil et upkeep.
I All of which Introduces the lMgc Hill
Gelf Club. Geed fellowship and med-
erati fcs are lis guiding features. The
lilub is nbeut te make lis debut and that
!'J stuff ought te enish evet for the big-
nest unlllllL' list In Ibe city.
The reason the dub is called the lldgr
Hill Gelf Club Is because It i nt IMgc
Hill. It's right across fteiu the Nerth1
Hills Club nnd will ecup. tlie nine-hole ,
I course and the clubhouse which was
I used by the Cediubroek Country Club I
last spring during the ronstiuctlen of,
their own grounds en I.tiirkiln pike. 1
The latist elitb was formed by 11
group of real gelfcix und links enthu
siasts who bellexe that golf is becoming
tee much of a mil man's game, thnt
there is tee mtiili waste In the minimis
traiien of the ncrage golf course and
thai It is hlghh possible for a geed 1
'club and course te be 11111 ut 11 minimum
of cpensc ptexldcd business methods
'are introduced Inte the administration.

Owing te the fact that it has but nine

Would Help Athletics, Says Rice
By GBANTLAND RICE
Hie Other Side of It
We have Had our Bay of Ihe open way
Where the palm, palmetto and pine
trees cay,
Where the tun sink) loie en the North'
cm snow
And only the rugged come and go,
Where thin and blue, ushcrc ihe herons
flVt
The camp smoke drifts te an open sky.
But there's still Remance and the thrill
of Chance
Where the city icaits tclth Us song and
dance
Where the gunmen ply mth an eager
eye
Their busy trade as the bullets fly;
Where the hooch you pour deun a
thirsty threat
May bum its tcay thieugh an overcoat.
Oh, city life, icith its toil and strife.
Was once as dull as an old bread knife:
lint new it's rough as the movie stuff
Where the bandits yelp, "Lay en, Mac-
Duff!"
And r:c yearn for the peace of the
puma's lair,
Of the rattlesnake and the gritily bear.
The Student Guard of Hener
THE suggestion has been offered that
each college or university hai en
student gunrd of honor tontrelllng ath
letics with full power te act.
The plan might be well worth trying.
The council or gunrd might take In
the president of each class nnd nil var
sity men who have earned the celleglats
letter. .
This council, of course, would have
te nblde by all present regulations, such
as the enc-yenr rule, class standings in
the way cf study, etc.
But It would be the custodian of in
tercollegiate ethics, keeping especial
watch ever any form of professionalism.
The honor' system, employed in this
way, might get quite a bit further nleng
than ninny faculties or coaches seem te
hae gotten.
