. Breeder and sportsman. Horses. 34 THE BREEDER AND SPORTSMAN' [Saturday, February 15, 1908. Baron Bowles, 3, 2:25 and Alconda Jay 46831. The popularity of Baron Wilkes 2:18 as a sire is firmly established, not only through his representa- tives in the 2:30 list, but by the remarkable show- ing made by his sons, as sires, and his daughters as dams of early and extreme speed. In this respect Baron Wilkes leads all other representatives of the famous George Wilkes-Mambrino Patchen cross. Mated with representatives of any and all trotting horse families, this cross has been productive of marvelous results. Very few representatives of Baron Wilkes have been brought to California, and no trotter of the family as well bred or as promising as Baron Bowles 2:25.

His breeding is as follows: Sired by Baron Wilkes Jr. 2: 1814, one of the best bred sons of Baron Wilkes 2: IS sire of Dulce Cor 2:08%, Baron Bell 2:09, Oakland Baron 2:09*4.
