CURRENT NOTES OF THE TURF. The correct price of Lahores show tickets in race 30171 was .30, not .10 as was published. John E. Madden sold last week to Frank Fogg, Covington. Ky., Old Eylers, ch. c, 2. by McGce Sanfara dam of Kewcssa, by Ingoldsby. As usual, the Montreal racing season will bo opened next year by Delorimier Park, which will not surrender its old-established dates for either meeting to any of the mushroom organizations. At Cincinnati it is reported that Edward Burke and Leo Mayer, stockholders at Havre de Grace, and J. E. Brueliton of New York are among those interested in the proposed new race track at Rose-dale. The program book for the first seven days of the Oriental Park meeting at Havana shows 00 as the minimum purse value, with a liberal sprinkling of 00 and 1916.sh00 purses. It is announced that the Christmas Handicap, ,000 added, will be run on December 25. Of the sixteen promising yearlings which August Relmont has in training at Belmont Park, six are of the get of Trap Rock, five are by Hastings, two each by Watervale and Fair Play and one by Uncle. These are tlie youngsters which will represent the Nursery Stud among the two-year-olds of, 1017, as far as the American-bred division of the Belmont stable is concerned. W. O. Parmer, thoroughbred breeder and turfman, has disposed of his farm Edenwold. near Nashville, to Richard Plater, of Nashville. He received in exchange Nashville business property and cash aggregating 00,000, it is said. Several months ago Mr. Parmer bought the old Belle Meade home place and fifty acres, his Idea being to revive the prestige of that once famous race horse nursery. Breeders are reminded that November 1 is the last day on which foals may be registered in tlie Stud Book without a fee of 0. Horsemen generally are famous for their procrastination, and it is well that memory should be jogged. The registration is awav below what it should be at this time, and it is only because the breeders have neglected this most important part of the successful rearing of the thoroughbred.
