He will dispose of them wheu opportunity affords, but he will hereafter maintain a racing establishment in connection with his breeding industries. Nealon and Otis, two of the stallions that have been doing stud service at the Schreiber estahlishinent will be among the sires offered at the Sedalia sale, unless Robert A Davies, wealthy Canadian turfman, who is In quest of them, buys them at private terms.
