THE YEARLING CROP. Statistics compiled at Lexington by a noted turf authority show that to date 458 thoroughbred yearlings have been sold this year at public auction for a total of 12,350, a general average of ,110. The yearlings so far sold are the representatives of twenty-two arge breeding establishments, and were sired by 112 different stallions. In average, Riinnymede stud leads all the breeding farms, but J. B. Haggins Rancho del Paso stud, numbers considered, is deserving of first honor,, since from that great place 133 head were sold, while Runnymede sent only ten head into the ring. The highest price of the year was 1,000, while the lowest was 5. Below will be found a table giving the number of yearlings sold from each breeding .establishment, the total amount they sold for and the general average of each stud farm : Yearlings Total Bold. sale.
