done in the private and club stable. Indeed, we can urge 

 no good reason against this syestm of stabling, as it is pre- 

 ferable under all circumstances to any other plan now in 

 use. 



For the guidance of those who may contemplate an asso- 

 ciation of this kind, we refer to the following series of 

 rules and regulations, well adapted for the government 

 of a club stable. So good are they that they have stood 

 the test of time, and given satisfaction to horsemen for

 changed when found necessary, yet to this date they 

 remain intact.
