. Breeder and sportsman. Horses. NEERNUT 2:12'/2. gets speed, size, style, soundness and endurance. There are no cripples among the Neerauts, and all of them have quality, speed and strength.

Last sea- son Goldennut got a mark of 2:11% and Burnut 2:13%; in 1906 Neergard got a record of 2:16% and Jenny A. 2:13. Were it not for the fact that every owner of a Neernut believes he has the finest road- ster ever foaled (equal to many that are entered in the races on the circuit) there is no doubt his list of 2:20 and 2:30 performers would exceed that of any other grandson of Electioneer. His tabulated pedigree shows the source from whence his excellence oemes. His sire, Albert W. 2:20, was one of the gamest campaigners ever raced in California. He sired Little Albert 2:10, a gelding that the late Mon- roe Salisbury claimed was the toughest, gamest and most consistent little campaigning trotter he ever crossed the Rockies with. Albert W.'s next fastest son was Neernut 2:12% (trial, 2:09), Miss Albert 2:15%, William Albert 2:16%, Dudley Olcott and sixteen others in 2:30. His daughters have pro- duced Icon 2:10, Bob Ingersoll 2:14%, Pop 2:17 and eight others in 2:30, while four of his sons sired fourteen and Neernut 2:12% is the greatest of these four. Albert W. 2:20 was by Electioneer 125, out of Sister (also dam of Bonanza 2:29% and grandam of two under 2:20 and Waldstein 2:22%, sire of nine in 2:30) by John Nelson 1S7 (sire of four in 2:30 and the dams of nine in 2:30). He was by a son of imported Trustee, the latter the sire of Trus- tee, the first horse to trot twenty miles in an hour. Neernufs third dam was The Lamont Mare (dam of Aurora 2:27, etc.) by Abdallah 1. The dam of Neernut 2:12% was a very fast and game trotting mare called Clytie II. She trotted a mile to cart in 2:20. She was by Nutwood 2:1S% (sire of 174 in 2:
