CHICAGO BREEDER TO SELL YEARLINGS Young Horses From E. R. Bradleys Idle Hour Stock Farm to be Sold by Auction Saturday. Saratoga, N. Y., August 7. Edward R. Bradley, whose Idle Hour Stock Farm near Lexington has become one of the most productive thoroughbred nurseries of Kentucky in the last six or seven years, will hold his first public sale of yearlings in the paddock, at the Saratoga race track next Saturday. Mr. Bradley will sell his yearlings at the same time that Richard T. Wilson, the president of the Saratoga Association offers to the highest bidders a band of youngsters by his brilliant young stallion Olambala. The Powers-Hunter company, of New York, will conduct the sale, which will begin at noon. The youngsters Mr. Bradley will offer are mostly sons and daughters of Helmet, the sire of Julialeon and Scabbard and several other horses of various ages that have been winning on American tracks this year. Helmet, a son of Disguise and St. Mildred, she by St. Simon, is a half brother of Knight Errant, the sire of Roamer. The Idle Hour yearlings have arrived at Saratoga in first-rate condition. They waited for the cool weather. Not one of them has so much as sneezed since reaching its quarters and already the consignment has been critically inspected, bv tho scores of buyers that have come to Saratoga from all parts of the United States and Canada.
