SOCIETY. In the Hunt Country Activities Among the Horse:Lovers of Virginia and Maryland. BY NINA CARTER TABB. HE Upperville Colt and Horse 8how to be held Priday and Saturday is the most important sporting and social event in Virginia this week. The show grounds are all ready for the eighty-fifth an- nual show, first and oldest in America. Grandstands and boxes are draped with gay bunting, every fence has had a new coat of whitewash and the beautiful grove of large oak trees Iooks very cool and inviting to those who drive by. As always, there will be a large crowd in attendance both days, for the classes at this show are the most interesting of any on the circuit. The Upperville Colt and Horse Show \\'us“ started in 1853 after Col. Richard Dulany, considered the best judge of horses in the country, had been asked | !0 decide an argument between '“’E : 3 Jocal horse breeders as to which owned ! the better of two vearlings. Col. Dulany selected a spot in a lovely ghady grove of oak trees on his place to decide the question, and one June morning the two colts were brought | there for the matter to be decided About a hundred people arrived who had heard the two colts were to be | Judged, and so much interest was shown in the decision the colonel was to make that after it was over Col. Dulany told those there that the fol- Jowing June he would give prizes for the best colts they would bring to that same spot and in that way he stimulated all of their interest in good breeding of horses. Every year since, except for the ! four years of the Civil War, the Up- erville Colt and Horse Show has been | i: ‘:BM in the same beautiful grove : ahere the two vearlings were brought that June day so long ago. 'AI,WAYS the most interesting class to real horsemen is the class for yearling thoroughbreds, and the larg- st purse or prize is given in this class. This year the class has the biggest entry list ever. Horsemen enter their ©olts and come from all over the coun- try to see the yearling class, and the winners of the most important races in the country are seen by the public for the first time at the Upperville show i There are many large breeding | fi establishments in the neighborhood | and here you can find, the very best horse flesh in America. For years the show was the only one in America, but bundreds of others have been started from this one. You can go to & horse | show from April to November now, | almost every day some where in this eountry, but nowhere will you find as good a class of horses as you do at Upperville. The men of this section have al wavs been interested in well-bred horses, and to their sons, and daugh- ters, too, now, the knowledge they ac- quire is handed down from generation to generation. The officials and directors of the Upperville show take great pride in keeping up the high standard and quality of the show. and when a new member is taken in they select him with great care Among the 600 horses entered for the coming show are some from most of the important show stables in the eountry.
