year Clydesdale stallion, Sir William Wal
lace, Jr., by Sir William Wallace, dam by
Rob Roy. Sir William Wallace, Jr. is a
bright bay, stands nearly sixteen hands,
and weighs about 1900 pounds. With his
size, good form and royal breeding, the
infusion of bis blood with tho better
class Of mares of northern Iowa and
Southwestern Minnesota must do much to
improve the draft stock of that section.
AT the same time and of the same breed
or Mr.. Sherwood purchased eight head of
short horn cows and calves to be sent to the
same destination. Messrs. Barden, De Graft
and others of our st. Paul breeders would do

acy in breeding in Minnesota.
