LOUISIANA-BRED YOUNGSTER Molly Green Foaled at Lindsay, La., in Al Gaal Stable Quartered at Fair Grounds. NEW ORLEANS, La., Nov. 29 Al Gaal, New Orleans turfman, added another racer to the band that he has in training at the Louisiana Jockey Clubs course in Molly Green, a two-year-old brown filly, which was foaled in Lindsay, La., and was only recently named. The juvenile is by Tea Green Molly Hogan, and is the property of Johnston and Greco. The former was bred in the Pelican state. Gaal has been engaged to prepare the filly for future racing at the local course. The breeding of thoroughbreds in Louisiana has been increasing yearly and there are farms of some consequence located at Carencro, New Iberia, Lake Charles, South Kenner, Violet, Lindsay and Lafayette. State Senator E. A. Martin, at present, is the largest breeder at his farm near Carencro, where a number of winners have been produced during the past few years, the most prominent of which was the late Lafayette Boy, a colt that gave promise of developing into the best racer to be bred in the state, when he broke a bone in a hoof and had to be destroyed. Other winners that have come from Senator Martins farm, are: Michigan Miss, Magnolia Cash, Cash o Boy and several others during the past few years of racing. Michigan Boy, which until this year stood at the Martin farm, has been replaced by the South American-bred Cambridgeshire, the property of John B. Theall, trainer for the pretentious Joe W. Brown stable.
