NORMAN FERCHERON HORSES.

For centuries France has been noted
over all other countries of Europe for the
superiority of its horses. Especially is
this true regarding the horses of Nor

America as the Norman Percheron horses.
The importltionS of these noises have
been small rs compared with the number
of horses bred at home, hut those which
have been imported have proved very
profitable to their owners. In fact, the
demand for this breed has been steadily
and rapidly increased until il * safe to say
that the Norman rrrclieron will he, in fu-
turr. tie horse for heavy work in this

The only parties " no at present make

horses directly from. France To the Pacific
