the United States by the late Capt. James M.
White, Of Selma, Missouri, in the year 1912, and
has been brought to this place by the undersigned.

the horse the farmers of the country need. Every
one wishing to possess himself of the most su-

self OF the opportunity now presented, as it may
be the last, (the horse being owned by persons
living in the southern part Of the State.) This
horse Is the full height we have stated, and his
form, weight and. general appearance indicate the
great est strength and service that be desired.
We invite the public and especially all those
who wish to improve the size strength and stamina
of their stock to call and see him before making
other engagements, satisfied as we are, that none
can fail to be pleased
The pedigree of this horse is now in the pos

and will be procured in time to answer all the
purposes of his patrons. The season has now com
menced and will end the 4th of July next.
