PREFACE 



It may also be read with interest and profit by 

 the proprietors and managers of the most exten- 

 sive breeding establishments, men who have had 

 years of experience in the business, as well as by 

 those who breed and raise but one or two foals 

 a year. To those who are about to establish 

 farms devoted to the breeding of trotters, or are 

 just starting in the business on a limited scale, it 

 will prove of immense value.
