Breeder lady Theories.
Among the followers of the turf and
the hunting field the gray horse always
ha been popular, and his practical dis
appearance from the, racecourse, ha been
regretted by all lovers of the thoroughbred.
For generations the doings of th gallant
gray hava formed the leading theme In
sporting song and story, and there are in
numerable Instances rf grays being the
horses of great sportsmen. Experience
shows, though, that as a general rule
grays are cither very good or very bad.
It la a long time since a gary won the
Derby, but in Flying Fox's year there was
the III fated Itnlocauate. and perhaps he
would have been the. winner's most dinger,
ous opponent, but for the fatal mishap.
At the present time la it noticed that the
gray is gradually making its appearance
again on the English turf, and. on the
subject a'n expert says: "At tha present
time the old color seems to be making
headway again. Le8ancy. the aire of Holo
rausta, has left behind him in France a
number of hlgh-olaaa daughters, some of
them of his own color, and for all wa

gray. In other words, no gray horse Is to j
be found whose sire cr !am haa not been
a gray. That "like produces like' or the
ltkeneaa of some progenitor, is one of the
recognised axioms of breeding and atavism,
or a relapse to 'he form, color and pecu
liarities of an ancestor more or ha re
mote, is a fact known to tha breeder of
every kind of stock.
To Many Craaaea.
"Blood Introduced into a pedigree can
never be entirely effaced, though the ef
fects may of course be minimized by suc
cessive crossings of other strains, and this
will account for the appearance now and
than of animals bearing no resemblance
to their more immediate parents. In the
same way good and bad qualities are
equally transmitted, as well as form and
color, and may likewise lie dormant for a
time to appear later. Atavism has nothing
whatever to do with what is termed "tele
gony," and though the two are, frequently
confused the very existence of tha latter
phenomenon is not yet scientifically recog
nised and may have only tha relation to
the former that astrology baa to astron
omy. It should be mentioned that In spite
of the lack of scientific corroboration many
breeders of experience are firmly convinced
of the truth of telegony and the theory
haa many adherents, more eapeclallv in the
canine world. But in the ease of gray
horses me ahall find on minute Investiga
tion that the color once lost never reap
pears In subsequent offspring and la not
subject to tha law of atavism. This fact
may be a surprise to many; perhaps some'
breeders may be u.iaware of It. but It will
in practice be found If we Inquire into the
matter that every gray horse we see,
whether race horse, hunter, In the shafts
or tn the plow, has had one of Ua parents
of thia particular color.
"Tha wonder, then. Is not that now there
are so few grays to race, hunt, to mount
that very distinguished regiment, the Royal
Boots Grays, or convey the bridal party to
church, but that there are so many, when
one reflects how easily the color Is lost.
So very' few horses are destined to be usd
at the stud and become fashionable sirea
in comparison with marea that it would be
on the latter principally we must rely for
the perpetuation of the color.
Gray Easily Ohlttarated.
Let us see how readily it ta obliterated.
If a gray mare on being put to tha stud
does not produce a gray filly, or if her
gray fillies from on cause or another are
not bred from, the color is gone from her
family forever. Take the stud book for a
couple of ears back and see what It

gray horses. In the volume of 1M6 there
ara only twenty-eight gray brood marea

only about one mare in every Six) is of this
color.
"It may hers be observed that certain
stralr.s of blood produce horses whose
coats are licked over with white hairs,
though In no case does the coloration
amount to a real gray. Such markings,
for Instance, are very characteristic of the
descendants of Birdcatcher and Vrnlaon.

"It should be specially noted that though
the stud book provee fairly conclusively
that every gray must have had one parent
of that color it by no means follows that
any one dextrous of breeding a gray can
make a certainty of It by mating two grays
together. We hae already seen that the

she bred seven grays out of ten foala to
