As has been the custom here every year since this track has been o|iened for racing, except in its inaugural year, the coming meeting of 1915-16 will run for one hundred or more racing days. As has already been announced, the coming meeting -will have a distribution daily of ,000 for Its racing program, which will make the distribution for the 1915-10 meeting total close to a quarter of a million dollars. In the matter of horses there has been no race track operated either in 1914 or 1915 that housed at any meeting as many horses as were quartered at the Juarez track last winter and the same record will probably be repeated there at the coming meeting. Aside from the big horse special which will leave Kentucky at the close of the Latonia meeting. scores of stables from all over the Fnited States, east and west, as well as Canada and British Columbia, have booked their applications for stable room for the coming winter season of racing. There has never lieeii a raetr tracs iaid out on which expenditures have been more liberal than at the Juarez course. Moreover, after every meeting, no matter the outcome of the financial end. improvements have been made each year at this course, until now its appointments are unsurpassed.
