We propose to hold our sales upon

plus stock, as we will not spare time
or money TO make this, our first sale,
a grand success. We will advertise
literally in all the leading turf journ-
ais in the United States, and will I'M
doubtedly attract a large number of
buyers. Sale limited to 800 horses,
and restricted to sound, choice stock.

records, fast green performers, stall

Now is the golden opportunity. Send
for blanks and enter your well-bred

The Horse Business Still Grows.
The latest business enterprise
started in Columbia, and most i'm
portant one, is the Combination
Breeders Sale, with Leneave, Shelton
& McGaw, projectors and prOprietors.
Their card in our live stock column
will give the dates and other infOr-
nation. The gentlemen undertaking
this work are practical horsemen, all
of them, and practical, reliable and
responsible business men as well.
We heartily commend them to the
public. II they receive the patronage
they deserve, they will build up a
business of incalculable benefit to
this county. II our people will put
their surplus horses IN this sale, 1t
will enable the gentlemen engaging
in it to induce buyers from all parts of
the country to come here. In this
way there would soon grow up a
foreign demand for our horses that
would enable man at any time to
convert his horse into money, at its
real value. The business has a great
future in it for Maury County, and
we hope big profit to the gentlemen
whose progressiyeness and enterprise
atarted it.
